An extraordinary line-up of legendary jazz greats backing the amazing Val Wiseman on vocals in an evening paying homage to the great Billie Holiday

 

The show parades some thirty songs from the wonderful Billie Holiday repertoire, including many that are all-too-frequently ignored. They are presented chronologically through the 30s, 40s and 50s, many featuring the original arrangements, and performed with so much style and vitality that you might almost be there. New York City. November 1933. When it all began: The Billie Holiday Legend

 

Who could resist a line-up featuring Digby Fairweather on trumpet, Roy Williams (trombone), Alan Barnes (tenor sax/clarinet), Brian Dee (piano), Pat McCarthy (guitar),  Len Skeat (bass) and Bobby Worth (drums)? Lady Sings The Blues provides a unique opportunity to hear her music as Billie would have performed it on stage.
