Dee Dee Bridgewater, a three-time GRAMMY® and Tony Award-winning jazz giant, joins forces with GRAMMY®-winning pianist Bill Charlap in a rare duo performance at the Fox Tucson Theatre. Renowned for her fearless artistry, storytelling, and unparalleled vocal command, Dee Dee Bridgewater has reimagined jazz standards for decades while bridging genres from Ella to Billie to the American Songbook. Bill Charlap, praised by The New York Times as “masterful” and known for collaborations with Tony Bennett, Diana Krall, and Barbra Streisand, is one of today’s foremost interpreters of the Great American Songbook.
Together, they bring music from their acclaimed 2023 album Elemental to life, traversing everything from intimate ballads to exuberant standards with chemistry that critics describe as “instantaneous” and “alchemical.” This concert is a sublime tour-de-force, intertwining virtuosity, emotion, and spontaneity in an evening that will linger long after the final note.
