NYC: MARIA GUIDA SWINGS THE STANDARDS
A very appealing singer with a warm voice and the ability to express the hidden beauty found in superior lyrics, Maria Guida performs at
THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) on Saturday, March 14th at 7:00 pm. Maria recently recorded her debut CD, Soul Eyes. Throughout this impressive and highly enjoyable set, the beauty of Maria's voice is equaled by her understanding of the words and the creative spirit of her musicians. In fact, there was such an immediate communication between all of the participants that Soul Eyes was recorded in its entirety in one day. While most of the standards on Soul Eyes are familiar, these versions are unique. Certainly this version of the opening "How Little We Know" differs from previous renditions. It is given a gentle interpretation as Maria sings about the mystery of love, and it becomes quite touching near its end when the tempo slows down. Maria Guida grew up on Long Island. As a child, she heard her parents' opera, pop, and musical theater records and her mother singing American popular songs around the house. Growing up, Maria played violin for eleven years with a string quartet and all-state orchestra and sang solos in a chorus. She then chose a career in the theater and trained as an actor (with Olympia Dukakis as one of her mentors/teachers). Over a fifteen year period, Maria acted on Broadway and television, was featured in plays by Shakespeare, Chekhov and Tennessee Williams, worked in new productions, had roles in soap operas, and did TV commercials. She was also cast by Joseph Papp for the New York Shakespeare Festival's Shakespeare in the Park. The turning point of her professional life occurred when she saw pianist Bill Evans play live. Very important in Maria's career were the lessons that she received from singers Jay Clayton, Sheila Jordan, and Janet Lawson. Over the years, Maria has sung in many clubs with such top musicians as pianists Bruce Barth, Kenny Werner, and Pete Malinverni; bassists Essiet Essiet, Cameron Brown and Ed Schuller; drummers Ron Vincent and Tom Rainey, as well as the musicians featured on Soul Eyes. She has also performed on stage with acclaimed singers, including Linda Ronstadt and Maureen McGovern. There is a $15 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
NYC: PASCALITO NEOSTALGIA TRIO AT THE MET
Mediterranean by heart. Parisian by birth. New Yorker by choice. Latin by soul. Pascalito (Pascal Sabattier), a NYC-based French vocalist, songwriter will perform with his trio at
THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440) on Saturday, March 14th at 9:30 pm. He is the leader of Neostalgia, a world jazz band featuring two vibrant Brazilian accompanists, pianist arranger Luiz Simas and acoustic bassist Leco Reis. They are joined by special guests Barbara Blonska (flute) and Tessa Souter (vocals). Influenced by his North African and Spanish Jewish heritage, Parisian upbringing, South American escapades, and by his adoptive New York City where he has spent most of his adult life, Pascalito is a truly international artist. His eclectic and timeless repertoire showcases inspired compositions, imaginative covers and heartfelt interpretations in both English and French. Blending pop, jazz, bossa nova, chanson, swing, flamenco, noir-ish night music, tango and more, his style can suggest influences from artists as various as Caetano Veloso, Chet Baker, Michel Legrand, Aznavour, Gainsbourg, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Claude Nougaro and Henri Salvador. Pascalito's licensed original works have been featured in the popular cable TV shows Burn Notice (USA), Damages (FX) and NCIS Los Angeles (CBS). Tonight will be the official US release of his new CDs with Neostalgia: Citizen Chanteur, performed, recorded and filmed live right here at the Metropolitan Room, and also Forbidden Colours (EP) a disc engineered during a live video session at the Grammy-award winning Bennett Studios. The albums already enjoyed a successful European preview this past summer with a sold out engagement at Sunset Sunside, one of Paris most renowned jazz clubs. A free CD package will be offered with the purchase of one admission ticket. This one-night-only performance is not to be missed as the dual French American citizen will be soon repatriating to Europe after 16 years of New York life.
