April is Jazz Appreciation Month - Spread the Word!

     In an effort to rebuild a jazz audience in Dayton, Jazz Advocate is offering a Tribute to Lady Day where we use a combination of theater and jazz artists to present bits of narration on the life of Billie Holliday intertwined with some of her more recognizable music.  We are presently looking for sponsors to enable us to proceed.  Our event sponsors will receive a good deal of press and recognition for their contribution.  If you can helps us present more of this special jazz series to our community please contact me.  - Ron Gable  (More details here!)

Recent Jazz Advocate Event: (Our thanks to all!)

E-mail from Lisa Persons: lmpersons@sbcglobal.net

     When I first walked in, I hardly recognized the place.  The lights were dimmed and the room flickered with candlelight.  There were intimate tables for two set up all around the room, and the balcony above, was made over into a secluded, romantic spot, lit with paper lanterns, tables just large enough for private rendezvous'.  Then Theresa Hunt started to sing.
     Theresa's voice filled the room.  The acoustics were so natural, a good portion of the night she didn't even need her microphone.  The trio that accompanied her was incredibly talented, and they were the perfect companions for Theresa for the evening.
     The crowd was small, but they were all enraptured by Theresa's voice and the setting.  Everyone was so comfortable, like they had been coming there for years.  Bill as usual, contributed wonderful food, and everyone had their favorites, and came back time and again for his gourmet treats.  Carolyn created a very popular wine bar, with good selections, which they all seemed to enjoy.
     On behalf of the neighborhood, I  want to thank Al and Bob for creating such a cozy atmosphere, Bill for the food, Carolyn for all of her work (she did everything), Jeanne for taking charge of the refreshments, and Ron for enabling us to enjoy Theresa's talent one more time.
     All of the guests were encouraging Ron  to do it again very soon.  Personally, I can't wait.  The evening was truly magical.  I hope you will be able to  share the experience with me, the next time. - Lisa
