Bringing new life to American Songbook classics
With a telepathic on-stage rapport and playful exuberance, vocalist Dee Dee Bridgewater and pianist Bill Charlap bring new life to American Songbook classics and jazz standards. Bridgewater’s bold, story-driven vocals dance around Charlap’s harmonically rich, deeply rooted piano, fusing spontaneous charm, warmth, and technical mastery. Touring behind their new duo album, Elemental, this is a musical alliance distilled to pure voice and piano as it strikes a balance between jazz intimacy and theatrical storytelling. The album, described by Paris Move as “a masterclass in minimalist grandeur,” includes tracks like “Mood Indigo,” “Here’s That Rainy Day,” and the lead single, “Honeysuckle Rose.”
