COOL JAZZ - For a Hot Summer

LIVE! At THE BREMAN

Tickets-$0-$18

Immerse yourself in the golden age of American music with "Cool Jazz for a Hot Summer." This captivating program takes you on a vibrant journey from the dazzling lights of Broadway to the soulful streets of Harlem, celebrating the legendary contributions of Irving Berlin, Fats Waller, Andy Razaf, and other iconic composers.

Join us for an unforgettable evening featuring world-renowned jazz vocalist Audrey Shakir, alongside GSU Professor of Music and trumpeter Gordon Vernick, and the dynamic Gordon Vernick Quintet. Discover the influential works of celebrated Jewish composers and lyricists who helped shape the sound of early 20th-century jazz.

From its origins in New Orleans, jazz quickly traversed the Mississippi River to Chicago, Kansas City, and ultimately New York, where it captivated a new generation of artists. Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe, newly exposed to this innovative music, embraced it with enthusiasm, creating a unique fusion that reflected their evolving experiences.
