Audiences can expect beloved standards, bebop gems, Brazilian & Jobim-inspired colors, ballads, and spontaneous reinventions, shaped in real time by 2 artists with extraordinary ears and deep mutual respect. Their recent duo appearances have been described as celebrations of the Great American Songbook, bebop evergreens, lesser-known Jobim & more. This concert is a close-up encounter with the language of jazz itself — voice & piano, melody & harmony, tradition & invention — 2 master musicians discovering the night together. ROBERTA GAMBARINI Italian-born Roberta Gambarini is widely regarded as one of the preeminent jazz vocalists of her generation. The singer, lyricist, arranger & educator burst onto the international jazz scene in 1998 as a runner-up in the Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition, then went on to perform at some of the world’s most prestigious venues: Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, Monterey and Newport Jazz festivals & New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club. Her artistry has earned multiple Grammy nominations, including recognition for her albums Easy to Love and So in Love. Gambarini’s extraordinary voice is equal to the depth of her musicianship. She sings with the command of an instrumentalist, the phrasing of a great horn player & the emotional clarity of a storyteller. Her lineage runs through Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, Billie Holiday & the great bebop masters — she is deeply rooted, technically fearless, and completely present in the moment. TAMIR HENDELMAN Tamir Hendelman is the ideal partner for that kind of artistry. Born in Tel Aviv and raised in Los Angeles, Hendelman began keyboard studies at age six, won Yamaha’s national keyboard competition at fourteen, and later earned his degree in composition from the Eastman School of Music. Since 2000, he has toured internationally with his own trio, the Jeff Hamilton Trio & the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra, while becoming one of the most sought-after pianist-arrangers for vocalists. His work includes performances & recordings with Natalie Cole, Roberta Gambarini, Jackie Ryan, Tierney Sutton, and Barbra Streisand — including Streisand’s celebrated return to jazz at the Village Vanguard. His recordings as a leader include Playground and Destinations, the latter reaching #1 on the jazz charts and featuring music that ranges from originals to Jobim, Keith Jarrett & Ravel. Hendelman has been on the jazz faculty at UCLA since 2005 and continues to be a major presence as a performer, arranger, and educator.
