PATRICIA BARBER &
KENNY WERNER
Kenny and Patricia performed a soldout duo concert in Chicago and had such a good time that they'd love to do it again. If you know how inherently adventurous these master musicians are, you'll understand that every duo concert of theirs will be completely unique and an exhilarating ride for the listener.

JANE BUNNETT & THE CUBAN PIANO MASTERS
This dazzling display of rhythmic, harmonic and melodic virtuosity features a scaled-down version of Spirits of Havana + 3 generations of Cuban piano masters: Guillermo Rubalcaba (Gonzalo's father!), Hilario Duran, and Elio Villafranca. This concert can be done with two pianos, although all three pianists will be playing some of the time. We're targeting this for a U.S. tour in 2012-13.

SYMPHONY LOUNGE with CHAISE LOUNGE
Who knew that Chaise Lounge bandleader Charlie Barnett is also a classical composer of substance and depth? Well, anyone who heard the Chaise Lounge concerts at DC's Atlas Theater with the Capital City Symphony certainly knows. The first half of the program featured the Symphony playing Charlie's composition The Tarot, and the second half, now available on the live CD Symphony Lounge, featured the sextet doing a dozen of their most popular tunes, backed by the Symphony playing Charlie's original orchestrations.
If you have an orchestra in your town, consider a SYMPHONY LOUNGE concert. This program has something for everyone who likes music, period.

HOLLY HOFMANN & STRINGS!
I heard Holly do a Jobim program with the San Diego Symphony string section playing intricately gorgeous charts by Mike Wofford and a couple of other great arrangers to augment her quartet + percussionist ... a most unique and fulfilling evening of music. And now, to make it even more special, the great Kevin Mahogany has been added as guest vocalist! Holly also has original Ellington charts for strings, so if you have a classical series and want to add something a little different to your season, consider bringing Holly's band and arrangements to your city!

STEPHANIE NAKASIAN and HOD O'BRIEN
A crowd pleasing addition to Steph's & Hod's live performances is their now 17-year old daughter Ronnie, a one-time prodigy who headlined at Dizzy's in NYC at age 12 and has now matured into a fine singer in her own right. Her first CD Veronica's House of Jazz, recorded at age 9 under her chosen stage name of Veronica Swift, featured Richie Cole on sax, and her followup, It's Great to Be Alive, recorded at age 14, featured Harry Allen. Ronnie has now matured into her gorgeous adult voice, and is an amazing talent who has to be seen and heard to be believed!
