WE LOVE TO MEET NEW PICKERS\, AND WE LOVE PUTTING ON A GOOD SHOW FOR LISTENERS!THERE ARE NO PRE-SHOW RESERVATIONS FOR THE JAMS! SUGGESTED DONATION AT THE DOOR. $5.00 per person Our jams are all about sharing songs\, making new friends\, and enjoying a relaxing and casual evening of irresistible string band music. ALL are welcome to join the circle for an afternoon or evening playing and listening to classic grass\, new grass and folk favorites. We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. Red Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! What is a Slow Jam? It is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n		\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n	\n		\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						General\n						$120.00\n					\n				\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n					\n				More Information			\n			\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n		\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Guitar Workshops with Bruce Thompson\n\n				Bluegrass Instructional Workshop\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 23 • 9 AM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Music With Miss Deb\n\n				Family Folk Instructional Storytelling\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 24 • 9:30 AM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Clawhammer Banjo with Carolyn Shapiro\n\n				American Roots Instructional\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			Apr 28 • 3 PM

SUMMARY:Peak Jazz Series: Jane Monheit Duo
DESCRIPTION:American Roots Instructional		\n\n		\n			Share:\n			\n								\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	 \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nFor more than two decades\, Jane Monheit has been one of jazz’s most beloved vocalists\, captivating audiences worldwide with her warm\, expressive voice and her devotion to the Great American Songbook. With twelve acclaimed solo albums\, countless awards\, and performances at legendary venues including Carnegie Hall\, The Hollywood Bowl\, and New York’s Village Vanguard\, Monheit has secured her place among some of the great interpreters of our time. \n \nA native of Long Island\, Jane’s early immersion in music—piano\, woodwinds\, choirs\, and community theater—was always centered on jazz. While still a student at the Manhattan School of Music\, she placed second in the prestigious Thelonious Monk Competition\, launching an extraordinary career that has included collaborations with jazz icons like Tommy Flanagan\, Ron Carter\, Kenny Barron\, Terence Blanchard\, John Pizzarelli\, and Christian McBride. \n \nHer artistry has been featured on television shows from Letterman to CBS Sunday Morning\, and on soundtracks such as Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow and Never Let Me Go. Whether interpreting timeless standards or breathing new life into contemporary classics\, Monheit’s performances are marked by stunning vocal control\, emotional depth\, and a radiant stage presence. \n \nJane’s duo presentation with virtuosic up-and-comer Max Haymer is pure excitement—a stirring emotional ride that explores a broad swath of composers\, both historic and contemporary. Haymer’s stunning\, modern arrangements combine with Jane’s impassioned interpretation to create a truly affecting experience\, inspired by years of friendship and collaboration. \n \nThis special evening at Caffè Lena will be half holiday show and half jazz concert—a perfect blend of seasonal sparkle and timeless swing. A self-described Christmas fanatic\, Jane has released two extremely popular holiday albums\, The Season (2005) and The Merriest (2022). In support of these albums\, she tours to great acclaim every December\, bringing her brightly swinging holiday show to cities across the country. The songs are classics\, the arrangements are fresh and exciting\, and the festive joy is undeniable. \n \nWhether she’s delivering a beloved holiday standard or reimagining a jazz classic\, Jane’s artistry shines with warmth\, elegance\, and dazzling vocal command. Don’t miss this chance to welcome the season with one of jazz’s most beloved voices. \n \nSAMPLE SONG \n \nJoin us for an intimate evening with one of the premier voices of jazz today—an artist whose every note carries both reverence for tradition and the joy of discovery. \n \nThe Peak Jazz Series is made possible by the generous support of Joseph & Luann Conlon in memory of Corrine Simonds. \n \nStream this show live at Caffè Lena TV. Live stream available for $5 – 100% of live stream tickets on CaffeLenaTV benefit the artists. Subscribe for unlimited live streaming\, two week access to recent shows\, and Caffe Lena's video archive. \n \nNote: Caffe Lena does not permit ticket reselling above face value.
