Pianist & Singer Andy Bey on WNYC's Soundcheck (WNYC)Bey Watch
There was a time, before pop marketing, when great voices were like aged wines, and maturity was a prime asset for any jazz vocalist. The elder statesman Andy Bey shows why experience still counts and his new standards album, "American Song" reveals a bass-baritone sound capable of incredible range and maturity. He joins us to discuss his unlikely comeback over the last decade. Also on the show, we look at two sides of urban America as expressed by two very hot composers. Frank J. Oteri, editor of NewMusicBox.org reviews new CDs of orchestral music by Jennifer Higdon ("City Scape") and Thomas Ades ("America: a Prophecy").
