Roajazz
Went to a fun concert on Friday evening - DeDe Bridgewater and the Roanoke Symphony Orchestra. They did quite a number of jazz standards and mostly alternated between orchestral arrangements and more traditional trio arrangements. Ms. Bridgewater is an incredible singer with very compelling stage presence and she worked very well with our local symphony maestro - David Wiley. It was a very fun evening and makes me want to see more live music (something that is a little bit lacking around here but can be found if you make the effort).
