Item Description

Two tickets (prime seats)  to a jazz performance by Cecile McLorin Salvant on Saturday, July 26, 2014 at 8pm at Club Caramoor in Northern Westchester.

Since winning the Thelonious Monk International Jazz Vocals Competition in 2010, Cécile McLorin Salvant has rapidly risen to the top of Jazz presenters’ “must have” lists. Her 2014 recording, “WomanChild” was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Jazz Vocal Album. Share the music and magic of a spectacular summer night in Club Caramoor’s Spanish Courtyard.

“If anyone can extend the lineage of the Big Three — Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan, and Ella Fitzgerald — it is this 23-year-old virtuoso. Ms. Salvant has it all: perfect pitch and enunciation, a playful sense of humor, a rich and varied tonal palette, a supple sense of swing, exquisite taste in songs and phrasing, and a deepconnection to lyrics.”
The New York Times

“I heard/met her at Abysinnian only a little over a year ago (with Aaron on piano), and had some sense of the explosive future awaiting her, but I don’t think anyone could have anticipated the level of enthusiasm she has created. She seems to be the hottest musician in jazz in the country. When the Abyssinian concert was over (“John Henry” was the last piece), my legs would not work.”
—Gray Smith, Caramoor Member
