Reaching for the Moon – Ultimate Jazz

Representing “fearless innovation, a respect for tradition and irrepressible creativity”, Dee Alexander has been called “the face of jazz in Chicago”. Her performance with selections from The Great American Songbook features some of the best jazz standards, Gershwin, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin and Jerome Kern, among others.   Growing up in a household that was steeped in recordings of Dinah Washington, Ms. Alexander names Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald among her major influences.  

Alexander is a host on WFMT, 98.7 FM Radio Network and producer/host on WDCB, 90.9 FM. Jeremy Kahn, a jazz pianist in his own right will accompany her.

Lunch is offered before the program beginning at noon. To make a reservation, click here
