Audrey Silver Trio — live event
Audrey Silver - vocals and ukulele, Hyuna Park - piano, Jennifer Vincent - bass. With a growing catalog of outstanding recordings and a warm, swinging performing style, Audrey Silver is one of the most elegantly creative singers in jazz today. Known for what Hot House Jazz has called “extraordinary artistry” and “a velvet-laden timbre with impeccable phrasing,” Audrey has more recently become known for her compelling takes on well-known pop tunes and her own poignant originals. Her latest recording project and her fourth album, Let Me Know Your Heart, was released in early September 2019. The album features a remarkable group of musicians including Bruce Barth on piano, trumpeter Marcus Printup, upright bassist Paul Beaudry, drummer Anthony Pinciotti, Tom Beckham on vibes and guitarist Gary Ciprut. The album is centered artistically and emotionally on Audrey’s six newly-penned original songs (out of fourteen total tracks). Let Me Know Your Heart’s title song, written by Audrey, has the flavor of an Irish jig and features her singing and also playing the Native American flute. It also features Audrey’s renditions of Abbey Lincoln’s “Up Jumped Spring,” Irving Berlin’s “How Deep is the Ocean,” and Peter Gabriel’s “Solsbury Hill.” It also includes a French song, "Plus Je T’Embrasse” by Max Francois and Ben Ryan. Altogether the album is a wonderful example of Audrey’s superb ability to set a compelling scene in song. Audrey’s previous recording project, Very Early, was released in October 2016. Included in the stellar line-up is Barth and the highly respected drummer Lewis Nash. Creatively arranged by singer, composer, and Berklee professor Steven Santoro, the album bravely stretches across the spectrum from the cherished show tune-turned-jazz-standard, “Surrey with the Fringe on Top,” to the late Mose Allison’s “What’s with You,” to several of Audrey’s own compositions including “The Cold Wind’s Embrace,” and “When the World Was New.” Very Early also includes the French song, Jardin D’Hiver by K. A. Zeidel and B. Biolay. Born and raised in New York City, Audrey graduated from Brown University, where she founded The Higher Keys, the school’s first a capella singing group. After stints working in marketing for CBS Masterworks (now Sony Classical) and Chesky Records, Audrey returned to school and earned an MBA from Columbia University Business School. An award-winning jazz pianist, Hyuna Park’s musical universe is both deeply connected to New York and its vibrant jazz tradition while at the same time embracing her Korean and classical roots. She was the 2018 winner of the International Women in Jazz (IWJ) festival as well as the Jimmy Heath Award. She has graced the stage with Grammy award-winners such as Linda Oh, Luis Bonilla, Michael Mossman and Vincent Herring and performed at notable venues like the Kennedy Center and the French Embassy in Washington D.C., the Dizzy Gillespie Auditorium, and at the UN as well as a number of Embassies and Cultural Centers throughout NYC.
