The Emerald City Jazz Kings: Give Me A Song

The Magic of Jule Styne

“A word is only as great as the note it sits under, and Jule Styne has given me and all the ‘word-people’ the greatest notes.” – Sammy Cahn A piano prodigy, Jule Styne performed with the Chicago, St. Louis and Detroit Symphonies by the age of 10. He dreamed of being a concert pianist, but his teacher discouraged him from pursuing classical music, saying his hands would never be big enough. Luckily, for us songbook singers, he turned to popular music and became one of the most talented composers of the American Songbook! This Jazz Kings concert will be filled with many of our favorite show stoppers: “Just In Time”, “Everything’s Coming Up Roses”, Don’t Rain On My Parade”, “It’s Magic”, The Party’s Over”, “Time After Time”, “Make Someone Happy”, “Put ‘Em In A Box”, “Three Coins In The Fountain”, “I’ve Heard That Song Before” and of course, “Give Me A Song With A Beautiful Melody”. Please join us in the artistry, genius and magic of Jule Styne. -- Shirley Andress Emerald City Jazz Kings Ticketing: Purchase at The Shedd Institute Ticket Office (541-434-7000, 868 High Street).
