The iconic duo: Ella & The Duke
In the storied history of American music, you’d be hard pressed to find a duo as lasting as that of vocalist Ella Jane Fitzgerald and composer Edward Kennedy “Duke” Ellington. American Songbook introduces a new narrated concert honoring their shared legacy, as portrayed by the accomplished soloist Sandra St. Victor alongside multiple GRAMMY-winning producer and pianist Mark Batson.

The legacy of the American crooner
Through a mix of beloved standards and unexpected selections, breakout Broadway star Dez Duron traces the legacy of the American crooner. From Bennett to Bublé, Sinatra to Tormé, the sound of the canonical jazz balladeer signals romance and longing. What does it mean to be a crooner today? Duron offers a love letter and exploration of this classic American musical form, reframing it for the modern stage.
