 AL_APPEARANCE_AT_SCULLERS_JAZZ_CLUB_\nEvent Date Begin: 2011-06-23\nEvent 
 Date End: 2011-06-23\n\nBoston\, Massachusetts (and its sister city across
  the Charles River\, Cambridge) boasts the largest concentration of higher
  education students in the United States.  Boston University\, Northeaster
 n University\, Harvard University\, the Massachusetts Institute of Technol
 ogy (M.I.T)\, and Emerson College mingle with smaller schools such as Simm
 ons College and Wheelock College to make Boston truly a stronghold of educ
 ation and knowledge on the East Coast.  Representing the arts in education
  are The Institute Of Contemporary Art\, the Berklee College Of Music and 
 the New England Conservatory Of Music. Jazz vocalist/composer Carmen Lundy
  &ndash\; long a proponent of\, and contributor to\, the educational proce
 ss &ndash\; brings her magic\, her show\, her trio\, to Boston's pre-emine
 nt jazz venue &ndash\; Scullers Jazz Club &ndash\; on Thursday June 23rd\,
  2011. \n\nAppearing with Ms. Lundy at Scullers will be Anthony Wonsey on 
 piano\, Kenny Davis on bass\, and Jamison Ross on drums\, Lundy's seasoned
  trio of accompanists.  This trio has traveled far and wide to spread Ms. 
 Lundy's jazz message\; appearing with her at the Artists Collective in Har
 tford\, Connecticut\; Detroit\, Michigan's Institute Of Art\; and the lege
 ndary Blue Note Jazz Club in New York City.  Lundy's trio has become a vib
 rant live unit\, particularly in their role supporting Carmen on the Solam
 ente material.  Unlike her earlier releases like 2008's Come Home or 2003'
 s Something To Believe In\, Solamente\, Lundy's latest project and her ele
 venth CD release\, found Carmen not only writing and producing the album\,
  but also playing every note of music on the project.  Layering her at tim
 es languorous\, at times defiant\, at virtually all times sublime vocals o
 ver her own accompaniment on piano\, bass and drums\, Solamente was\, in e
 very sense of the word\, a solo project.  Now Wonsey\, Davis\, Ross and Lu
 ndy combine their talents to expand and refine the ideas and themes presen
 ted on Solamente\, as well as material from the Live At The Madrid CD and 
 DVD and Lundy's other early work. \n\nThe releases noted above\, as well a
 s many others\, comprise Carmen Lundy's New Jazz Songbook\, a collection o
 f 60 of her self-penned compositions.  One of those compositions\, &ldquo\
 ;One More River To Cross&rdquo\; was composed by Ms. Lundy using words fro
 m the famous Langston Hughes poem &ldquo\;I've Known Rivers\,&rdquo\; and 
 was first presented on Lundy's 2001 release This Is Carmen Lundy.  Carmen 
 has also toured extensively as a soloist with Mary Lou's Mass\, a work com
 posed by Mary Lou Williams with arrangements by Lundy often performed with
  the brilliant jazz pianist\, Gerri Allen.\nThis show will mark Ms. Lundy'
 s inaugural appearance at Scullers Jazz Club.  Scullers &ndash\; founded i
 n 1989 by noted jazz impresario Fred Taylor\, whose previous ventures incl
 ude the legendary Boston venues Paul's Mall and the Jazz Workshop &ndash\;
  has been voted &ldquo\;Boston's # 1 Jazz Club&rdquo\; by Boston Magazine 
 as well as &ldquo\;Best Live Music Venue.&rdquo\;  Jazz legends Bobby Shor
 t\, Marian McPartland and Wynton Marsalis have all graced the Scullers sta
 ge.  Newer artists following in the footsteps of those jazz giants at Scul
 lers have included Harry Connick Jr.\, Diana Krall\, and Chris Botti.\n\nS
