Tickets: $50 plus $30 or $60 minimum
Description
If a night of jazz were still up to the standards set by Ella, Billie and Sarah, then Paula West would be the only (yes, only) contemporary vocalist worth the price of admission. Not only is her full-bodied contralto a thing of beauty, it’s connected to an emotive intellect that makes the American Songbook speak to the future rather than the past. Her annual Oak Room engagement with the George Mesterhazy Quartet always ranks among the year’s most satisfying evenings of cabaret; this year’s set includes selections by Bob Dylan and Cole Porter.
