ABOUT BARBARA
Barbara Rosene is a passionate interpreter of American popular music. Robert L. Daniels of Variety writes that "Barbara reveals a lyric's plaintive romanticism and lovely melody with a kind of sweet lyrical grace."
Recently Barbara has been touring with The Harry James Big Band led by Fred Radke. They have been visiting cities all over America and Canada including performances at The Montreal Jazz Festival
Barbara's New album "On The Brink", will be released this spring on the Bluesback label. "On this album," says the singer, "I decided to perform more straight ahead music. I love the 1920s and '30s styles but I also love Peggy Lee, Dinah Washington, bossa novas and more recent music and I wanted the chance to introduce some completely original tunes too." Because Barbara's voice has always blended particularly well with guitarists, this is a pianoless set with a prominent role for the guitar and some master guitarists, James Chirillo, Howard Alden and Ray Machiarola to fill it. Jazz great Randy Sandke and virtuoso Wycliffe Gordon are her special guest artists.
Born and raised near Cleveland, Barbara has been a major part of the New York classic jazz scene since she move to New York in 1997. Since then she has released five CDs of her own.
