Sounds and stories of Women in Jazz who have graced the stage at MCG Jazz, going to the beginnings of MCG Jazz.

Hear music and personal stories from Renée J. Govanucci, Director, MCG Jazz, and Marty Ashby, VP & Executive Producer of MCG Jazz about just a small sampling of some phenomenal jazz women, including the legendary vocalist Betty Carter, one of the first artists to perform for MCG Jazz (by the way - she has a “new” release coming out, too!)

Also, German pianist Monika Herzig; Guitarist Sheryl Bailey; saxophonist Grace Kelly; and vocalists Ella Fitzgerald, Stacey Kent, and Miss Nancy Wilson.

A celebration of just a few of the women of MCG Jazz, Friday and Sunday night at 6pm on WZUM.
