Last night i was invited to Two Cities Gallery to hear jazz pianist Steve Sweeting and singer Heidi Krenn present a program titled "Composers at the Crossroads", on the music of 20th century German-Jewish composer Kurt Weill. I was familiar with two tunes, including his classic, "Mack the Knife". I obtained Steve's permission to take a photo without flash, but the camera battery went cataput. The setting would have looked like this one, from this jazz music blog. the photo of Kurt Weill is from this page on his life.
Here is a photo of Heidi Krenn from this source. An Austrian who won a Fulbright award to study in New York, Heidi is a jazz vocalist capable of handling sophisticated harmonies.
