  I
am out of the country this
month.
I
will be giving a vocal seminar
and concert on the evening
January 18th, 2012, in Athens,
Greece. Please help me to spread
the word and let me know if you
wish to attend. I will put it up
as an event on Facebook
where you can sign up. I plan to
focus the workshop on vocal
technique and on how to
communicate with an accompanist.
Pantelis Benetatos will be
accompanying me. He is a
wonderful pianist and he knows
the American songbook!
I will also be doing several
club appearances, including
January 29, Shelley Burns and
Pantelis Benetatos, 10PM-1AM,
Rodamo Cafe, Agiou Georgiou 43A,
Xalandri 15234.

Jazz
pianist Martan
Mann
writes: Wow, Shelley . . . total
fun! I really think that you are what
jazz singing is all about. Your singing
skill is excellent. You create music on
the spot. And . . . you are so much
fun. I know that all the musicians
enjoyed playing with you and Bill . . .
and the audience dug you as well.
Looking forward to our next gig. Best,
Martan :)

 UPDATE
2008:
I had a very successful concert
at the Parafono
Jazz
Club.
It was so crowded, and the band
was really good. The legendary
Mario, of
Rebética
fame, came on stage with
me!
 A
BIG THRILL was that on my
stopover in New York, I sang with
LES PAUL. He has a steady
Monday-night at the
Iridium
Jazz
Club.
I was invited to the stage and
sang I'm Old Fashioned and
then he and I did a duet of
It's been a Long,  Long
Time.

 Aug.
13, 2009:
Les
Paul
died today at age 94. I
feel so fortunate to
have met him and to have
made music with
him.

UPDATE
2009:
And this year on my New York
stopover at the Iridium
Jazz
Club,
I sang some numbers with
legendary jazz guitarist Bucky
Pizzarelli. WOW
:-)
