presents Songs We Love

A Journey Through the History and Spirit of Jazz

Songs We Love is a journey through the first 50 years of jazz song. Under the musical direction of trombonist Mariel Bildsten, 3 guest vocalists will join an all-star band made up of New York’s rising stars discovered by Wynton Marsalis. Combining their distinct talents, the group will sing their way through four decades of music, beginning with the early blues and jazz of the 1920s and ending in the early 1950s. Iconic singers to be explored include Ma Rainey, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Judy Garland.
