CAUGHT IN THE TRANCE is
a tribute to the late great singer, songwriter and pianist Matt Dennis
(1914-2002), who was hired by band leader Tommy Dorsey in the 1940s
as an arranger/composer and later had a full career of his own playing
the country's top supper clubs and appearing on film and television.
His songs "Angel Eyes" and "The Night We Called It a Day" were recorded
by Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald and countless others. Besides his
early hits with the Dorsey band, the evening will include later lesser-known
compositions with lyrics by Tom Adair, Earl Brent, Ted Steele, Jerry
Gladstone, and Bobby Troup.
Mary Foster Conklin received
the 1999 MAC Award for Jazz Vocalist, and is a two-time Bistro Award
winner for Outstanding Vocalist and Outstanding Recording. Her debut
recording "Crazy Eyes" was listed as one of the ten best CDs of 1998
by IN THEATRE Magazine. Her second CD, "You'd Be Paradise," was released
in Fall 2001 to critical acclaim.
