About the Event
The Melaleuca Jazz Orchestra and NIMA are very proud to present 'The Songs of the Jazz Greats'. Throughout the 20th century, Jazz has had many vocalists that changed the sound of jazz, created the sound of a generation, and most importantly, created music that was timeless and eternally loved. From Ella Fitzgerald to Billie Holiday, Sarah Vaughan to Louis Armstrong, each singer took music from the American Songbook, or from their own mind, and filled the airwaves with their voices, each voice unique, though still a part of the fabric of jazz. The Melaleuca Jazz Sextet will be performing a selection of well-loved songs featuring Sydney vocalist Melody Beck, and members of the highly acclaimed Melaleuca Jazz Orchestra.
