SATIN DOLLS:
The Women of Jazz
A New Jazz Show from the AAPRC Network!
Women's roles in jazz progressed and expanded throughout the 20th century. Their substantial legacy and innovations in jazz are undeniable. Women have moved from behind the microphone as simply, "the girl singer" to mastering every instrument played by their male counterparts! Not to mention that female jazz vocalists have had such a profound impact on the genre, that many are known to the world on a first name basis... Billie, Ella, Betty, Sarah, and others.
In today's world, jazz women do it all! These ladies who lead are composers, arrangers and so much more. Women in jazz have full reign to explore their artistry, while standing on the shoulders of the many great women who carved a path where there was none. |
