“Women in Jazz”

Houston pays homage to “The Divine One”

Be there when Houston’s Community Music Center pays tribute to “The Divine One” in “Women in Jazz: A Salute to Sarah Vaughan.” One of the most storied and respected women in the history of American music, Miss Vaughan recorded a number of what are today considered standards, including “That Lucky Old Sun” (recorded by Willie Nelson), and she also worked with a Who’s Who of jazz greats such as Miles Davis in her sessions. Vaughan’s works, including “A Song for You” and “Send in the Clowns,” will be presented by vocalists Mickie Moseley and Kamil Bonner and saxophonist Theresa Grayson, with accompaniment during part of the program by the Scott Joplin Chamber Orchestra.
