Sarah Vaughan was a world-renowned singer and pianist who was
regarded as one of the greatest of all jazz singers.
She was a contralto with a range of three octaves. She sang with
rhythmic flexibility and blessed any record that she sang on to make it to become
timeless, universal music.
Some called her Sassy; others, the Divine One. I call her my
favorite singer. And I am taking great pleasure in celebrating the life and
cherishable art of this Grammy Award winning artist. With that in mind, I would like to invite
you to listen in to this week’s episode of my radio show Jazz on the JNote.
What will you hear?
You will hear the capricious voice of Ms. Sarah Vaughan gushing
out of her mouth and coming alive in your ear like an explosion of color burgeoning
to blossom. You will hear some of the relics of her heroinism; those that made her
brief time on the planet meaningful. You will hear sounds that come from the
ecstatic world of jazz music and you will hear the voice of the host and
producer of Jazz on the JNote Radio Show, Stephanie Jeannot, using the duration
of the show to celebrate the charm, vibrato and life of the Divine One.
The show airs this Sunday, March 27, 2022 at 7:30 PM EST, as
part of the Medgar Evers College Community Radio stream over the air waves of WNYE 91.5 FM. To find out more info on Jazz on the JNote, you can click on the link below to check out some of the flyers and previous episodes of this show, for your viewing and listening pleasure:
My hope is that you will join us for the newest radio stream this Sunday evening and that the songs will not only get you listening to Sarah Vaughan’s amazing vibrato hit you full in the face so effectively that it makes you want to sing along and dance throughout the show’s entirety, but that this week’s episode of Jazz on the JNote will bring a positive and joyous end to your weekend.

live on Sunday March 27, 2022 at 7:30PM EST on WNYE 91.5 FM.
