Nicole Henry is a soulful jazz singer with a beautiful voice.
After playing cello for six years and singing in school choirs, she gained experience singing dance music and r&b in addition to working as an actress before discovering jazz, making an impression with her debut CD The Nearness Of You.
On her LiveStream from July 16, 2000 (the music starts around the 15 minute mark), Nicole Henry sings a variety of jazz and r&b tunes including “Just The Two Of Us,” “I Love Being Here With You,” “The Very Thought Of You,” an inventive “Embraceable You” and some soulful ballads.

This is the hundred and sixth in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Sharel Cassity was classically trained, placed third in the Disney International Piano Concerto Competition at 18 and had a classical saxophone scholarship at North Texas State University but has made her career playing jazz alto-sax.
She graduated from the New School and Juilliard and has worked with the Dizzy Gillespie Latin Experience, Nicholas Payton, Cyrus Chestnut’s Brubeck Quartet, the Jimmy Heath Big Band, Diva (2007-14), Roy Hargrove, Lewis Nash, Joe Chambers, Darcy James Argue and others.
Pianist Richard Johnson grew up in Canfield, Ohio, played trumpet and valve trombone in high school, graduated from Berklee and the Boston Conservatory of Music, and during 2000-03 was a member of the Wynton Marsalis Septet and the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra.
He has also worked with Russell Malone, Delfeayo Marsalis, Bobby Watson, Wayne Shorter, Arturo Sandoval, and as an educator.
Cassity (on alto, tenor and soprano) and Johnson perform a set of inventive duets on their LiveStream from July 16, 2020, alternating jazz standards (including some Thelonious Monk) with originals that fall into the modern mainstream of jazz, pushing themselves while always swinging; they both excel in this format.

Review:
This is the one hundred and eighty eight in a series of special Jazz on the Tube reviews of live stream performances.

Pat Bianchi has gradually become one of the top jazz organists on the scene.
He began on the organ when he was seven, studied classical piano, worked as a jazz pianist from the age of 11, studied at the Eastman School of Music and Berklee, and eventually switched back to organ.
After becoming an important part of the Denver jazz scene, Bianchi moved to New York where he was a longtime member of the Lou Donaldson quartet, became an important member of the Pat Martino Trio, worked with Ralph Peterson’s Unity Project and Tim Warfield, and released six CDs as a leader.
On his LiveStream from July 14, 2020, Pat Bianchi is joined by guitarist Paul Bollenbeck and drummer Byron Landham for extended playing on our numbers including “Secret Love.”
While being part of the classic organ trio tradition, the musicians stretch the music with their advanced improvising, showing how the organ group can sound in current times.
