Valley Jazz Voices

7 PM Concert and 8:15 PM Singers’ Open Mic

Valley Jazz Voices is the longest-running, community jazz vocal ensemble in Western Mass. Celebrating its 10th year, the ensemble of 30 singers is staging its spring concert to share the love of jazz vocals with its community. Directed by Jeff Olmsted and accompanied by a professional jazz trio with Ellen Cogen on piano, George Kaye on bass and Chet Pasek on drums, the ensemble sings a wide range of songs from standards to modern arrangements of familiar songs to originals by director Jeff Olmsted. After the concert, it opens up to a singers’ open mic when singers are encouraged to bring their chart of a jazz standard and sing accompanied by the band.
