Grace Kelly Quintet

Friday, February 19 at 8pm

Presented by the Silver Center and the Concert Committee of the PSU Student Senate

"Grace Kelly plays with intelligence, wit and feeling...natural ability and the ability to adapt...the hallmark of a first-class jazz musician."    Wynton Marsalis

Having studied saxophone since the age of ten, saxophonist, vocalist, composer and arranger Grace Kelly is rapidly making her way up in the jazz music world.  Now just sixteen, Grace has already recorded and/or performed with many notable musicians including Phil Woods, Dave Brubeck, Wynton Marsalis, Marian McPartland, Harry Connick, Jr. and many others.  Grace began her musical career with classical piano lessons at age six, but soon changed to jazz because she had the propensity not to stick to the notes on the page and make up her own melodies; thank goodness she did.  With a dynamo like Grace, the future of jazz is in good hands.
