Anita Wardell Quartet
Friday, 26 March 2010, 08:30 PM - 11:15 PM
Anita Wardell - voice, Robin Aspland - piano, Ryan Trebilcock - bass, Steve Brown - drums
The second concert this season for a great vocal musician – not just a singer but a consummate jazz musician. She can deliver the great songs with a passion and depth to match anyone, but her vocal improvisations have a fluency and dexterity which many horn players would envy. When she starts to scat be-bop lines she takes the vocalist’s art onto another plane. “….an uncompromising exponent of bebop, she’s won a cult following among her colleagues in London.” Clive Davis, The Times "a model of the Jazz singer's art … a gifted scat singer with a horn player's improvisational flair " The Guardian
