About
Caity Gyorgy's vocal solo is the first of two improvisations on this swinging rendition of Jerome Kern's final composition, the last song Kern ever wrote. Taking one chorus of the 36-bar ABAC form in G at 176 BPM, Gyorgy demonstrates the remarkable jazz vocal talent that has earned her recognition as one of the most promising young singers in contemporary jazz. Her scat singing combines rhythmic precision with melodic invention, navigating the form with the fluency of an instrumentalist.
Caity Gyorgy was 24 to 25 years old at the time.
