Last month, I had the great opportunity to do a workshop with The Notebenders big band. For two and a half hours, we went over the complementary topics of stage performance and improvisation. At the end of the session, they went through a song that they’d play the next day at a gig for me to give some feedback, too.
Today, it’s Melody’s turn to be under the spotlight. She’s a featured vocalist with the Notebenders jazz band, whose voice has been praised for being smooth and angelic on the high notes when singing classical songs and jazz.
Today, I want to share the words that Patricia had to say about her experience in Time For My Music. She’s a quiet person, rather on the shy side, but the deep rich tones on her tenor sax speak volumes. It’s always a delight to watch her play!
