ArtNotes: L’Tanya Mari’

Step into the Workhouse Jazz Lounge for a special ArtNotes performance on Saturday, August 7! Be serenaded by L'Tanya Mari's most impressive choice of notes, use of space and silence, and her intelligent way of improvising melodically. L'Tanya Mari' is a nationally recognized and critically acclaimed jazz vocalist and creative arranger. Her 2009 recording, A Teardrop of Sun garnered airplay across the US and Canada landing her in a top spot on the American Jazz Charts. Her soaring voice, along with impeccable intonation, clear articulation and a confident, swinging delivery, has solidified Mari' as a commanding force in the jazz vocal genre. All About Jazz describes Mari' "With a perfectly unadorned and simply phrased vocal style riding a perfect pitch voice. Her approach is not unlike that of a young Wynton Marsalis, who debuted with sharply-coiffed early recordings, well conceived and played."
