Vanessa Yorke Tagliabue: Racine Connection – Contemporary Jazz Vocal Album on CD

Description

Already a sensation in her native Italy singer Vanessa Tagliabue Yorke made her American debut at the Tribute to Bix Beiderbecke Festival in Racine Wisconsin in 2012. Backed by an all-star group including Dalton Ride hour (piano) Andy Schumm (cornet) Dave Bock (trombone) John Otto (clarinet) Josh Duffee (drums) and others she mesmerized the crowd with her powerful renditions of songs of the 1920’s ’30’s and ’40’s like Blue River, Thou Swell, the Very Thought of You, Black Bottom, Petite Fleur, Them There Eyes, and others.
