The Jazz Club of Sarasota and the Baltimore Orioles have teamed up to present Jazz in the Ballpark on Saturday, April 22, at 7:00 p.m. The performance will feature music of the Andrews Sisters and America’s favorite big bands from the 1940s to the present. Vocalists Michele James-Pruyn and the Swing Sisters are backed by the Sarasota Jazz Project, a lively big band that played to a standing-room-only sellout in last year’s Jazz in the Ballpark concert. James-Pruyn and her friends, Kim Kollar and Cathy Noeth, have performed “The Sounds of Harry James and the Andrews Sisters,” across the country for more than 17 years. A professional girls’ trio that specializes in great harmonies, the Swing Sisters will join the Sarasota Jazz Project Big Band to present such great classics as “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” “Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen,” along with other hits of the ’40s and ’50s. ...
