JAZZ CAFE
December 11 • 8 PM
Wenonah Brooks and Company
Vocalist Wenonah Brooks
In recent years modern jazz has taken on a chaotic element, breaking with it’s past and leaving many conservative jazz audiences wanting for the music they had grown to appreciate. Wenonah’s concept has been to bring the performance of jazz back to its fundamentals, namely a song expressed in the standard jazz form. The song may be one composed by Ellington, Basie, Gershwin, Cahn, Paul Simon or Sam Cook, the interpretation will be that of a traditional jazz vocalist.
Wenonah has performed with Stanley Jordan, Shirley Horn, Winard Harper, Richie Cole, Denis DiBlasio, Cecil Brooks III and Houston Person.
