Celebrate the Great American Songbook in all of its playful — and sophisticated — glory, brought to life by two of New York’s brightest young artists and a quartet of jazz all-stars.

Boasting prodigious trumpet talent and vocal charm, Bria Skonberg and Benny Benack III will re-imagine some of the classic partnerships in jazz and popular song, including Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, Judy Garland and Bing Crosby, and Dean Martin and Peggy Lee. Featuring songs by Gershwin, Ellington, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin and many more, this will be an “unforgettable” evening of singin’ and swingin’!

Bria Skonberg: Trumpet, Vocals, Co-Music Director
Benny Benack III: Trumpet, Vocals, Co-Music Director
Jocelyn Gould: Guitar
Jon Thomas: Piano
Charles Goold: Drums
