Arts Commons Presents TD Jazz Stacey Kent

Stacey Kent performs with an intimacy and precision that draws you in to her bossa nova sound, note by note. With a performance style described as “deceptively simple, meticulously presented” and a voice that’s “light but expressive, engaging and evocative” it’s easy to see how her albums have sold nearly 2 million, reaching Gold, Double-Gold, and Platinum-selling status. Fostering a love of music from a young age, Kent cemented her reputation early on by putting her own unique spin on an impressive repertoire of American standards. Her first original album, Breakfast on a Morning Tram with lyrics by her friend and famed author, Kazuo Ishiguro, earned her a GRAMMY nomination for Best Vocal Jazz Album, and served to define her as a singer with a highly distinct, personal repertoire.
