Janis Siegel, Jeremy Kahn

The voice of Janis Siegel is one of the most recognizable of the jazz world; it helped The Manhattan Transfer cross over to the pop charts in the 1970s and '80s — a rare accomplishment for jazz musicians after the Big Band era. Siegel has concurrently enjoyed a solo career for many years, building her own catalog of albums and collaborations outside her Grammy-winning band. For this concert Siegel will be accompanied by Chicago pianist Jeremy Kahn.
