Music from sources as diverse as Carole King, Cole Porter and Stevie Wonder will be featured Tuesday (Nov. 24), in a performance by the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay Vocal Jazz Ensemble.
Under the direction of UW-Green Bay adjunct instructor Chris Salerno, the vocal jazz ensemble will perform an array of musical selections both traditional and contemporary.
“You might say there’s a “pop” edge to the selections, but we’ll have jazz styles including Latin, Swing and Ballads,” said Salerno. “One of the group selections is a Beatles’ tune (In My Life).”
The program is scheduled for 7:30 to 10 p.m. in the University Theatre located in Theatre Hall. This will be the sixth concert of the 2009-2010 season.
Among the selections on the program are:
Moanin’ – Liz Kempf, soloist
In My Life – Erin LaFond, Farin Ludtke and Lacy Siegmund, soloists
Tenor Madness – Nick Boreen and Julio Reyes, soloists
