CAROL ANN TAYLOR

Love, Peace & Jazz! The Sunshine Jazz Organization is celebrating our 36th Season! Promoting America’s Precious Art form in South Florida Since 1986.

Join Sunshine Jazz Organization at the beautiful Sandrell Rivers Theater for a spectacular performance by the incomparable Carole Ann Taylor!

Carole Ann Taylor is a skillful interpreter of other people’s songs, she turns classic tunes like “You Can Have Him” by Nina Simone and “For All We Know” by Nat King Cole into poignant renditions, enriched by her own musical expression. “I am basically a singer of jazz standards,” says Taylor. “I evoke another time when people sat in clubs and listened to music.” But the nostalgia stops there. In contrast to her role as a soul singer, Taylor is progressive in her personal experiences. The balance between conviction and experimentation in her jazz singing voice is a natural extension of her speaking voice. And yet there is so much more.

BENNY GREEN

Betty Carter is in all truthfulness, whether I remember it each day or not, effectively my musical mother. Art Blakey, Ray Brown, Oscar Peterson, Milt Jackson and Freddie Hubbard all blessed my life by inviting me to participate in their music, included me on their recordings and live shows, and Art, Ray and Freddie even recorded my original tunes on their records. I have something to share today because I got to play with the hardest swinging bassist and drummer in the history of jazz; i got to feel this!

i have always wanted to belong and be included and be a part of the music, Black-American music, Jazz. anyone who has ever gotten to know me or been in my home, knows exactly what i’m about. i love classic Blue Note quintet records, and the sound and feeling of a trumpet-saxophone front line like Lee Morgan and Hank Mobley or Kenny Dorham and Jackie McLean, is what i love, and it inspires the music i write. i am a Jazz Messenger, my life is dedicated to Jazz.
