SUMMARY:JAZZ ROOM presents: Cyrille Aimée
DESCRIPTION:Cyrille Aimée – May 17-18\n“RISING STAR IN THE GALAXY OF JAZZ SINGERS” – The New York Times \nImprovisation is not just a technique for Grammy Nominated artist Cyrille Aimée\, it’s a way of life\, one that has not only allowed her to share her engaging voice and sparkling creativity with the world\, but has led her on an unexpected journey. She visits the JAZZ ROOM for her Charlotte debut performance. \nBy opening herself to the whim of the moment\, Aimée has ventured from singing on street corners in Europe to dazzling audiences at some of the world’s most prestigious jazz festivals; from sneaking out to sing in gypsy encampments in her native France to acting on Broadway; from braving the notoriously tough audiences at New York’s Apollo Theatre to being hailed by The Wall Street Journal as “one of the most promising jazz singers of her generation”. \nEarlier in 2018\, Aimée ended a chapter in her remarkable journey with the release of Cyrille Aimée Live (June 22\, 2018 on Mack Avenue Records). Receiving widespread critical acclaim from The New York Times and Wall Street Journal\, this release served as the finale of her longstanding band while bidding a fond adieu to the material recorded and presented in the past 5 years in a live setting. Always looking for the next adventure\, Aimée quickly shifted to her forthcoming 2019 release celebrating the legendary Broadway songwriter Stephen Sondheim. Among countless accolades\, Aimée won the Montreux Jazz Festival Vocal Competition and the Sarah Vaughan International Jazz Vocal Competition. She’s also shared her story via master classes\, a TEDx talk\, and a few addresses at the Conference on World Affairs. \nThe JAZZ ROOM provides a casual and intimate setting with tables and a full bar\, reminiscent of the classic jazz rooms of yesteryear. \nThank you to our JAZZ ROOM contributors: Bank of America\, South Arts\, Knight Foundation\, Arts & Science Council\, North Carolina Arts Council\, Alice L Walton Foundation\, Ford Foundation\, and the Infusion Fund.
