Photos: Gabrielle Stravelli Trio Celebrates BEAUTIFUL MOONS AGO At Birdland

The cd and the trio, which includes Gabrielle Stravelli vocals, Michael Kanan piano, and Pat O'Leary bass, has a hard swinging style rooted in jazz tradition coupled with Stravelli's totally modern lyric interpretations. "Beautiful Moons Ago" features twelve rarely heard gems from jazz and the American Songbook by well-known writers like Jule Styne and Cy Coleman as well as lesser-known writers like Doris Fisher and Clara Edwards. The album was recorded at the legendary Rudy Van Gelder Studio.
Over twelve years of collaborating, the trio has developed a musical connection that allows for great spontaneity in their performances and reflects their true joy in making music together. The American Songbook is no museum piece for this group, but a living, breathing testament to the power of a beautiful melody and lyrics that allow us to find our shared truths.
