Italian jazz singer and composer Chiara Izzi brings her project Hits on a Journey to The Jazz Lounge, exploring great American songs of the 1950s and 1960s.
Chiara Izzi plays The Jazz Lounge on Thursday, October 8, from 7 PM to 9 PM. She's an Italian jazz singer and composer based in New York City, and this stop is part of Italian-American Heritage Month. The set is built around her project Hits on a Journey, which looks at American songs from the 1950s and '60s that became hits in Italy through Italian adaptations. It's a way of tracing a musical path between the two cultures, and she sings in several languages along the way.
Izzi writes and performs her own material, and that ability to sing in multiple languages is what won her the Montreux Jazz Festival Voice Competition in 2011. Her vocal approach blends jazz, pop, and Mediterranean influences, and she's known for lyrical songwriting and expressive phrasing. The show is open to all ages, so it works as a date or as something to bring the kids to.
