Gulf Coast Jazz Collective: Great American Songbook

About this event

The Gulf Coast Jazz Collective performs an evening of Great American Songbook standards with a world-class vocalist.

Gershwin and Porter, Berlin and Kern, Rodgers and Hart – they wrote melodies so perfectly constructed that jazz musicians have been reinventing them for nearly a century and still haven’t exhausted their possibilities. The Gulf Coast Jazz Collective, joined by a world-class vocalist, dips into the deepest well in American music for an evening of standards performed with the intimacy and spontaneity that only a live jazz trio can deliver. From torch songs to up-tempo swingers, this special tribute to the “Great American Songbook” is a reminder that some songs were simply built to last forever.
