Emily Remembered Album Launch
We are overjoyed to announce the forthcoming album, Emily Remembered, from two of my favorite players in jazz, Deirdre Cartwright and Kathy Dyson, who have been working tirelessly on this project over the last year as well as touring extensively for the memory of Em. Just added, a February 3rd date at Band On The Wall, and also the album will have two live launch concerts at the prestigious London jazz club, Ronnie Scott’s on the 16th and 17th of February, 2011.
We will be posting further news of how to purchase as soon as it comes available for U.S. and international sales. Please support these live performances by two very dedicated educators and incredible jazz guitarists, who will be joining forces to invoke the spirit of Emily with intimate guitar duo performances of swing, bossa and bop arrangements written by Remler, as well as a few of their own compositions and jazz standards.
Still unfamiliar with Cartwright’s and Dyson’s names? Visit Jazz Guitar Life for a two part series of interviews conducted by AllThingsEmily with these wonderful ladies from 2010 and get to know them better. More details coming when available.
