Thirty-five years after their electrifying 1987 team-up and the Grammy-winning album that resulted, vocalist Diane Schuur reunites with The Count Basie Orchestra for an unforgettable night of straight-ahead swinging jazz at GBH’s Calderwood Studio.
In its ninth decade of swinging around the world, The Legendary Count Basie Orchestra continues to be a vital force under the direction of trumpeter Scotty Barnhart, carrying the legacy of the Big Band era forward and still getting audience’s toes tapping night after night.
All About Jazz declares of the evening’s guest artist, “Ms. Schuur surely is among the very best jazz vocalists, and she exemplifies if not redefines the ‘diva’ category with her warm, often humorous, and relaxed interactions with the audience and the musicians. Her mere presence is enough to make for a memorable evening.”
Be there for an evening of old-school swing when two enduring acts come together for an event that brings the spirit of the Big Band era vitally and electrifyingly to the present!
This performance also has a streaming option May 22- May 28.
