From the Pizza Express Jazz Club in Soho, Julian Joseph presents music from the 2012 ReVoice Festival. Including Jamie Davis and his band, and Georgia Mancio with John Parricelli.
Jamie Davis holds a key position amongst male vocalists with his incredibly rich bass-baritone voice. He began singing (Latin liturgical music, Bach, Schumann and Mahler) in his father's church choir before joining the US Army to perform jazz, swing and blues. Today his fascinating repertoire encompasses Cole Porter, Stevie Wonder and Charles Mingus and highlights an ability to convincingly pay tribute to the past whilst remaining very much in the present.
And the festival curator, Georgia Mancio performed with Guitarist John Parricelli who began his career in 1982 and was one of the founding members of the ground-breaking British big band, Loose Tubes, with whom he recorded three albums. He has worked in an astonishing range of settings with artists including: Annie Whitehead, Kenny Wheeler, Norma Winstone, Lee Konitz and Paul Motian.
