SUMMARY:JAZZ ROOM Presents: Women In Jazz: Camille Thurman
DESCRIPTION:JAZZ ROOM Women In Jazz: Camille Thurman with the Darrell Green Quartet\nMarch 14th and 15th. \n(Classic Jazz/Vocals)\n“Imagine if Sarah Vaughan played saxophone like Dexter Gordon. That’s approximately the effect when singer and tenor saxophonist Camille Thurman performs.” —Downbeat Magazine \nIn her JAZZ ROOM Charlotte debut\, acclaimed saxophonist and vocalist extraordinaire\, Camille Thurman featuring the Darrell Green Quartet\, will wrap up Season 21 with the sounds of classic jazz including original music from her latest works\, in celebration of Women’s History Month. \nAs an accomplished composer\, esteemed saxophonist\, vocalist\, and unique interpreter of the jazz tradition\, she is quickly becoming one of the leading standard bearers of the art form. Her distinct musical approach to classic and original repertoire\, which highlights her craft as a powerhouse singer and instrumentalist\, is a captivating blend of tradition and innovation. She makes a considerable and dynamic contribution to the legacy of jazz while paying tribute to its heroes through her music. \nThe New York City native has amassed several distinctive honors for her musicianship: NAACP Image Award Nominee for Outstanding Jazz Album\, recipient of the SOUTH Arts Creative Jazz Road Artistic Residency\, Downbeat Magazine’s Critics Poll Nominee for Rising Star Tenor Saxophonist and Vocalist and Rising New Artist (2023\, 2022\, 2021 & 2020)\, two-time winner of the ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composers Award\, a recipient of the Fulbright Scholars Cultural Ambassador Grant and Chamber Music of America Performance Plus Grant (Sponsored by the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation) among others. Thurman also has five full-length recordings as a leader to her credit. Her most recent project\, “Confluence: Vol 1\,” is a collaboration with master drummer Darrell Green and his quartet. \n​Thurman made history\, becoming the first woman in 30 years to tour\, record\, and perform full-time internationally with the world-renowned Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra as a saxophonist/woodwind doubler (2018-2020 season). A respected bandleader\, she has headlined numerous notable concert venues and jazz festivals worldwide\, including the Kennedy Center\, The Library of Congress\, and the Rose Theater. Her international recognition is a testament to the universal appeal of her music and the profound impact she has made on the global jazz community. \n  \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. \n
