- Notes: The month of August brings the birthdays of jazz icons Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong, both celebrated pioneers of jazz in its early years. Jazz singer Sarah Jerrom has been craving to delve into the exquisite songbook of Duke Ellington for quite a while. When singer Melissa-Marie Shriner invited her to perform a trio concert with Toronto-based singer Faith Amour this August, it became the perfect opportunity to explore the Ellington songbook as well as songs made famous by Louis Armstrong. On Sunday, Aug. 19th, three lush, velvety voices singing your favourite Ellington and Armstrong jazz standards will be sure to have each and every listener smiling and tapping their feet! Joined by Doug Mundy on piano and Rob McBride on upright bass, two highly regarded and in-demand musicians in their own right, the three singers will take the audience on a journey into the profound and joyful songbooks of Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. Solos by these seasoned singers will be interspersed with duets and trio performances harkening back to the famous duets of Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong. The concert promises to be a diverse and thoroughly enjoyable listening experience.
