"The Dutch Jazz Orchestra is focused on special projects within the realm of jazz. They are specialised in performing and recording obscure, and often unknown, works by the unsung heroes of jazz. The Dutch Jazz Orchestra has quit a list of rarely performed works of composers, as Mary Lou Williams, George Handy, Gil Evans, Gerry Mulligan, Claude Thornhill, The Boyd Raeburn Orchestra, Duke Ellington and now Billy Strayhorn, on its name. And so in 1995 The Dutch Jazz Orchestra, lead by Jerry van Rooijen, started a new project and they released the CD Portrait Of A Silk Threat on which they presented unknown and never earlier recorded work of Billy Strayhorn. This CD became very successful. The Dutch Jazz Orchestra have been busy recording new materials of Billy Strayhorn. This resulted in three cds, So This Is Love, You Go To My Head and Something To Live For." (Challenge Records)
Album uit 1993. De Nederlands-Amerikaanse zangeres is vnl. bekend via musicals, maar blijkt jazzrepertoire moeiteloos aan te kunnen. En heeft bovendien een fraaie, warme, volle stem. Mmv Dolf de Vries trio, Toots Thielemans, Thijs van Leer.
