Judy Niemack Quartet feat. Alan Broadbent- Heart's Desire

Judy Niemack Quartet featuring Alan Broadbent "Heart's Desire" ( Judy Niemack (vocals, lyrics), Alan Broadbent (piano), Prince of Light (guitar), Jay Anderson (bass). Fri., Sept. 19th 8 & 10 pm - Jazz at Kitano (66 Park Ave, NYC (@ 38th St)

Judy Niemack and Alan Broadbent in a rare NYC appearance! Alan's "Heart's Desire" was the title track of Judy's 1990 CD with Kenny Baron, but she and Alan didn't have the opportunity to perform it together until last month at the Sligo International Jazz Festival in Ireland, where they earned critical acclaim -

"An interesting selection of songs, including vocal versions of tunes by Bill Evans, Tadd Dameron and Thelonious Monk, set off the purity and flexibility of her voice. Her style was polished, her timing and diction impeccable...His touch, his use of dynamics, his contrasting moods and tempos, all held the audience riveted. The remarkable thing was not expressed them. He said more in a few minutes than some musicians get around to in half an hour..." (The Sunday Independent).

A common background in the Tristano school of improvisation and a love of melody result in an intriguing and heart-felt evening of song.
