Words & Music: Innovative Women of Jazz

EVERYBODY’S… GOT THE FEVER

Post World War II America experienced dramatic changes in art and in music, shunning the traditional and exploring the abstract. Jazz transitioned to a new style, decrying conformity, and experimenting with tempos, improvisation and harmony. Among the female jazz singers of the new era were ELLA FITZGERALD, PEGGY LEE SARAH VAUGHN, and NINA SIMONE. Each noted for their distinctive vocal style, and each a voice of empowerment paving the way for other women in music. The song list is rich. The journey a rich and rewarding exploration of America.
