Cool jazz that sizzles the soul can be heard when String Theory Manouche and Carolyn Lee Jones perform at the Allen Public Library Saturday, 7:00 p.m. April 12, at the Allen Public Library. Melding elements of traditional French Roma (Gypsy) tunes, the acoustic ensemble String Theory Manouche plays music in the tradition of Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli.
Carolyn Lee Jones’s eclectic jazz repertoire reflects influences ranging from Diana Krall to Anita O’Day and Shirley Horn. Her current CD “Bon Appetit!” garnered excellent reviews and has been featured for multiple rotations on jazz radio stations. Noted reviewer for Jazz Times Magazine Christopher Loudon writes: “Jones attacks each song with the vigor of a wildcatter yet maintains a dusky under current that drips with sensuality.”
Sponsored by Bach to Books, this program is free. Tickets will be issued at 6:30 p.m.
