Cole Sings Cole

Live performance with singer Alexis Cole and her trio

A delightful, de-lovely evening of Cole Porter songs. Will Friedwald presents one of his famous “Clip Joint” shows, a mix of filmed and televised performances showing the adaptation of the Cole Porter songbook by jazz artists from Ella Fitzgerald to Charlie Parker.

Will Friedwald writes about jazz for the Wall Street Journal and many other publications. His books include Jazz Singing: America’s Great Voices from Bessie Smith to Bebop and Beyond and A Biographical Guide to the Great Jazz and Pop Singers. BroadwayWorld.com calls his “Clip Joint” shows, “one of New York’s most entertaining open secrets.”

 

This film is part of the Jazz Sessions: The Greats on Camera series.
