Description
(At the instructor’s request, this class was rescheduled to Friday, January 29 at 1 pm.) A musical standard is a song that remains popular well after its original performance and setting, whether on the radio, on stage or in movies. Countless jazz and popular singers have interpreted standards from the Great American Songbook, like Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Tony Bennett, as well as contemporary performers. Julie Kurzava will spend a morning considering different ways noted performers have made a song their own.
