Salute America’s most beloved jazz singer in an electrifying musical event.

Karen’s homage to Ella bursts from the stage in an astounding feat of musical artistry, as she croons signature tunes from Ellington, Gershwin, and more including “It Don’t Mean a Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing,” “I Got Rhythm,” and “Cry Me a River.”
