4:00 PM Vocalist Claire Dickson

pays tribute to her favorite singer -- Ella Fitzgerald -- in a program of songs sung by the jazz legend. The concert features classics including "Mack the Knife," "Lullaby of Birdland," "I Got It Bad," "How High the Moon," "Ain't Misbehavin," "Blues in the Night," "Black Coffee," and "Chew, Chew, Chew (Your Bubble Gum)." With Jeff Lowe, bass; Matteo Iannacone and Dean Brunel, piano; Ethan Kaczowka, guitar; Dan Fox, drums; Glenn Dickson, clarinet.

Claire Dickson, 12, is already familiar to Boston audiences for her performances with Revels, New Rep Theatre, the Reagle Players, and appearances at Passim open mic. She comes from a musical family- her father is clarinetist Glenn Dickson and brother Eric McDonald,mandolinist, is a fixture on the local folk/bluegrass circuit. When she discovered Ella Fitzgerald six months ago, she fell instantly in love. Her performances deliver the goods with a clear, pitch-perfect voice, impeccable diction, a spirited and contagious passion for the genre, and remarkable maturity for such a young singer.
