Marilyn Scott

Marilyn Scott is best known for her Grammy-nominated work as a contemporary jazz vocalist and songwriter. As the years have progressed, she has dove deeper into Jazz writing and interpretations. Collaborations with many acclaimed artists have opened and widened her range in a music that’s rich in texture and complexity.

On her newest CD, Standard Blue, Scott explains, “The selection of the musicians and a direction of mood, made me take a very liberal approach on this recording, with blues overtones and open jazz arrangements that set the atmosphere."

Tonight’s performance is shared with some of those musicians who played on this album, Russell Ferrante on piano and Jimmy Haslip on Bass, Gary Novak drums and James Harrah on guitar.
