Lester Youngâs lyrical innovations influenced generations of tenor saxophonists and Billie Holidayâs deeply personal style defined jazz singing. Together, they were magic. Tonight, we honor their legacies with a stellar ensemble including the vocal stylings of Mary Stallings, tenor sax legend Frank Wess and the incomparable Bucky Pizzarelli.
