"Dee Dee Bridgewater has a technique and musicality that bests most performers of her generation, and her understanding of the ‘great American songbook’ makes pretenders pale in comparison."
—The Guardian
"Bill Charlap is masterful. His stylistic range encompasses rollicking stride piano, bebop virtuosity, and harmonically opulent modernism."
—New York Times
Over the course of a multifaceted four-decade career, jazz giant Dee Dee Bridgewater has ascended to the upper echelon of vocalists. She takes daring leaps of faith in reinterpreting jazz classics, putting her unique spin on standards. A professional musician since the 1970s, she has performed with such jazz notables as Max Roach, Sonny Rollins, and Dexter Gordon, and she has won two Grammy Awards—one for Best Jazz Vocal Album, and one for Best Jazz Vocal Performance. Bridgewater has also pursued a parallel career in musical theater, where she has won a Tony Award.
