TODAY IN M.W.: DAVID LAHM TO ACCOMPANY SPECIAL ACORN THEATER EVENT


TODAY IN M.W.: DAVID LAHM TO ACCOMPANY SPECIAL ACORN THEATER EVENT

On Tuesday, September 7th, ACORN THEATER (107 Generations Drive, Three Oaks, MI - 269-756-3879 - ) we present a special version of their weekly open-mic event, Pastiche. David Lahm will be visiting from New York and will accompany vocalists on the piano. If requested, he is willing to offer gentle suggestions on how to improve their singing. David Lahm has accompanied cabaret and jazz singers, as well as helping to produce their CDs for over 25 years. He conceived a centennial tribute to Richard Rodgers in which every track was a medley of a Rodgers song and an appropriately matched song by someone else. ("My Funny Valentine" paired with Billy Joel's "Just the Way You Are," for example.) That CD, MEDLEYFYIN' with vocals by Judy Kreston, was listed as a finalist for GRAMMY nominations in 2005. He has also drawn praise for the recorded output of what he calls "a small career in the jazz world" as pianist, composer and arranger. Notable among his projects are two CDs of instrumental interpretations from the canon of the songwriter he considers the "greatest in the English language in the last 50 yeears." These CDs are called JAZZ TAKES ON JONI MITCHELL and feature, as soloists, talents no less eminent than Randy Brecker and Lew Tabackin. David's mother, Dorothy Fields, was one of the most influential songwriters of her generation. Call for exact showtime, cover & minimum information.
