Jazz at Lincoln Center PRESENTS - “Songs We Love”
First presented as the 2016 season opener at Jazz at Lincoln Center, “Songs We Love” is a journey through the first 50 years of jazz song. Under the musical direction of Joye’s Artistic Director for Jazz, Riley Mulherkar, three guest vocalists will be part of an all-star ensemble including Festival favorites Mathis Picard, Shenel Johns, Vuyo Sotashe and others. Beginning with the early blues and jazz of the 1920s and ending in the early 1950s, the program covers the music of such jazz greats as Ma Rainey, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Judy Garland.
