For this 606 performance however, Kate and her swinging quintet, featuring guitarist Sam Dunn, saxophonist Rob Fowler, pianist Rob Barron and bassist Stu Barker, will present an evening of their favourite standards “recalling the music of Ella Fitzgerald and Joe Pass”. The classic jazz duo of singer Fitzgerald and guitarist Pass is one of the best known (and loved) in jazz history and Kate’s exquisite tone and gift for nuance, coupled with guitarist Dunn’s delicacy and control, makes for a satisfying revival. Beautiful ballads and swing tunes from the Great American Songbook performed with affection and aplomb.
