| Janice Borla Group at IAJE Conference  Chicago-area jazz vocalist and Blujazz recording artist Janice Borla will be featured in concert with her group (Art Davis, trumpet/flugelhorn, John McLean, guitars, Dan Haerle, piano, Bob Bowman, bass, Jack Mouse, drums) at this year's IAJE conference. Borla and her group will be performing selections from her new CD From Every Angle (Blujazz), which has already received abundant critical acclaim and radio airplay since its release in late October, remaining on Jazz Week's Top 50 CDs for the past six weeks.Borla's recordings and performances have earned her consistently high praise for her beautiful sound, superb technique, adventurous repertoire and imaginative vocal improvisations. With her new CD, she continues to expand the parameters of jazz vocal repertoire and the use of the voice as an instrument. Often cited for her adventurous, risk-taking approach, she continually challenges herself, keeping vocal improvisation front-and-center in her performances. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Jazz News :: home page |
