Description:

Personal jazz selection for everyone who doesn't like every jazz. Just the

Fine And Mellow one. Me being a modern day dame – I call it fine jazz ...

In this intimate club you'll find a rather personal jazz selection for everyone who doesn't like every jazz. Just the

Fine And Mellow one.

We love classic laid back vocal jazz from artists such as Johnny Hartman, Billie Holiday, Chet Baker, Ruth Young and many more. But we're also interested in contemporary artists such as Till Brönner, Stacy Kent, Esperanza Spalding and Madeleine Peyroux.

It's music with true voices and rather few instruments but deeply with

Body And Soul. Or, as Melody Gardot puts it, »somewhere inbetween jazz and blues. Just kinda floating along.« Feel very welcome to join, relax and recommend the very best of good ol' fine jazz.

Let's Get Lost.

My dearest, have y'all noticed the new little EP Bye Bye Blackbird by Melody Gardot? Elegant one! Again. Wishing you a very jazzy New Year. Hope our little group will evolve a bit in 2011? Love, Anyadora

Sharky1972 schreibt: »Hatte heute die neue JAZZthing in der Post - es hat dort einen interessanten Artikel über Dee Dee Bridgewater und ihr neues Album "To Billie With Love" - kein gewöhnliches Tributalbum "... stattdessen packte die Sängerin die Songs von Lady Day in moderne Arrangements und gab ihnen eine eigene Prägung ..." bin auf jeden Fall schon mal neugierig geworden - VÖ-Termin ist der 19.02.2010. Leider gibt's die Artikel von JAZZthing nicht auch online - habe aber auch etwas dazu auf JazzEcho gefunden: Lady Dee Dee widmet sich Eleanora Fagan.« Danke sehr!!

»Call it "Great American Songbook", call it "jazz standards" - there always have been songs that were performed by more than one musician.« Thanks to Sharky1972 who collected some of those great songs in his article The Great American Songbook and more … … although I definitely miss the male versions, e.g. Johnny Hartmans Summertime!
