JANE IRA BLOOM
Only Ballads
live at
Cornelia Street Cafe
Sun, Oct 2nd 8:30 pm
"One of the most gorgeous tones and hauntingly lyrical ballad conceptions of
any soprano saxophonist... she's an original." - Kevin Whitehead/ Pulse
Jane Ira Bloom soprano sax
Dean Johnson bass
Dominic Fallacaro piano
"The poet of the soprano saxophone"returns to the Cornelia Street Cafe with
a special program of only ballads with bassist Dean Johnson and pianist Dominic
Fallacaro. Long known for the intense lyricism, breath and allure of her saxophone
sound, Bloom has put together an evening of American songbook standards and original
ballads that showcase what she does best - playing slow. From Kurt Weill's "Lost
in the Stars" to Gershwin's "Porgy & Bess" Bloom shows how less is more when you
know the words. Close-up music in an intimate space. Don't miss this one time special
performance.
"Bloom's tone is a sonic wonder; crystal clear like a full moon on a starless night"
- George W. Harris, jazzweekly.com
"arguably the soprano's most distinctive and major voice… beautiful, exciting, and
adventurous" - Bob Protzman/Erie Times-News
