Camille Bertault – Direct From Paris
FRI & SAT • JAN 10 & 11
7 & 9:30 PM
|
|
|
Vanity Fair calls her “The new voice of jazz” and you haven’t heard anything until you’ve heard Camille Bertault. Perhaps jazz’s first internet sensation, Camille’s videos of her uncanny scatting her own French lyrics to standards like John Coltrane’s “Giant Steps” went viral five years ago. Since then, she’s cut two albums, incorporating her early training in classical and opera plus pop influences with a creative purity that demands to be heard.

Mauricio de Souza & Bossa Brasil
SUN • JAN 12
4 & 6 PM
|
|
|
Born in Brasilia where he began his musical studies, Mauricio de Souza began studying under legendary drummer Joe Morello as a teenager and, after graduating college, moved to New Jersey to continue that relationship. Today, de Souza is an in-demand sideman and a leader of both straight-ahead jazz Brazilian combos. His latest recording, the album Five Roads, has garnered wide acclaim for his ability to, as one critic wrote, “keep the sauces simmering.”
