Lagniappe 4

This will be a different kind of lagniappe.

The students in the group have begun their work preparing their contributions to the blog.  Come back tomorrow for the first "student lagniappe"!

Today I would like to tell everyone how excited and happy I am to bring a little of the music of New Orleans to Grenoble.

I sing with a group and we will be presenting our show ALL THAT JAZZ this Saturday, May 30th, 2015 at 16h and at 20h30 at the Salle Olivier Messiaen in Grenoble.  Jazz from the 1930s, 1940s, 1950s. There will be the singers (we say "the jazz vocal" rather than "the choir" here), solos, jazz band and dancers too.  It's music that makes you feel so good and takes you back in time. We will be singing New York New York, Cabaret, Roxie, Singing in the Rain, Cheek to Cheek, I Won't Dance (duo), Summertime (solo) and many more songs. Another pleasurable way to use your English.  There will also be a few songs in French, Tout Le Monde Veut Devenir Un Cat, for example.

I know it's going to be fantastic.  I have had a wonderful year working on this project and am so proud to be a part of the group.  I'd love to share the afternoon/evening with all of you who have followed this blog. It's another way of taking you all to New Orleans (and New York's Broadway musicals).

Come and join us.  

Call 06.17.60.18.65 for your tickets.

Musically yours,

Jane
