Jazz and the New Songbook – Live at the Madrid

Singer CARMEN LUNDY is without question one of the top living female jazz singers and composers, and perhaps the only one to be considered a worthy successor to the late Betty Carter. “An elegant sense of swing, sass and sophistication,” is how John Murphy of Downbeat describes the singer.

Jazz and The New Songbook ~ Live at The Madrid, is Ms. Lundy’s first live recording. Highly anticipated, the DVD and double CD releases document an event that is a must-see experience. The evening is a stunning two hour celebration of Carmen Lundy’s compositions, bringing together some of the greatest names in jazz from New York, Miami and LA all on one stage. Gary Giddins at The Village Voice describes it best: “I would like to call your attention to an authentic jazz singer named Carmen Lundy. She’s got it all.”
