Karensomerville was born the second oldest of four children in a real live 'back woods' town called Worton Point in Kent County, on the Upper Eastern Shore of Maryland. She laughs as she repeats a joke made by someone poking fun of her small surroundings. "Someone once said to me that Worton Point was so far back in the woods that the stop signs read 'Whoa' and the horses could read them." She admits that while the stop signs are like any other stop sign; there is some truth in the sentiment of the joke. Her love for music began at home, and was cultivated in the church. Both parents play instruments and sing. And her PopPop played accordian and harmonica, though he called it a mouth-harp; he often played the instruments at the same time. She can sing soprano, alto, tenor and an almost bass, if you will. She's sweet jazz like Sarah Vaughn and June Christy standards. She's Billie Holiday, and sassy blue like a Dinah Washington wake up call or a Shirley Horn lullaby. She's sunny, like Nancy Wilson and soul erupting like Mahalia Jackson. When you think you've heard it all; she'll get down on an a cappella sound with her Trio whose electrifying harmonies are so jelled it's amazing to discover just who is really singing which part. In this album Somerville (as called by many friends) is joined by longtime friends Lester Barrett Jr. and Wen Chamberlain. Two command performances by Nia (knee-yah) in 1998 and 1999 under the direction of Marlon Saunders of New York reunited her with several of Kent Counties' most celebrated gospel singers; Lester and Wen were among them. They sing background in this project, fill out the a cappella trio and they each have a solo track on the CD. Their talent truly speaks for the fine company Somerville keeps. The music is lead by the talented Dick Durham of Church Hill, MD., jazz pianist extraordinaire. It's Gershwin rejuvenated with an Ellington finish. Fascinating rhythms that are fresh and enticing. The magic of her voice and the joy of Dick Durhams' piano is a duo you will want to hear more of, Karensomerville is a natural talent, possessing the ability to captivate audiences in a medley of genres. Does she have a preference? "No, not so much of genres, but to moods," she says. "I've had seasons for blues ...

Liner Notes for Würzburg Jazz Orchestra - Artistry in Rhythm - The Music of Stan Kenton - feat. Ed Partyka:In spring 2005 I founded the 'Würzburg Jazz Orchestra' (WJO), which was meant to be thesuccessor of the 'Big Band der Jazzinitiative Würzburg', for a special project namely the 'Tributeto Don Ellis feat Thomas Gansch'. Looking at it back now the development of the band has beenoutstanding and, even for us, rather surprising. After the 'Don Ellis'-concert and besides severalother performances, we experienced another heyday during the jazz festival in Würzburg 2005when we performed the suite 'Continental Call', composed by Ed Partyka. Since January 2006we have made regular guest appearances in 'Würzburger Bockshorn'.All these ...

Original members Doug Wieselman (clarinet, saxes, guitar), Gina Leishman (saxes, keyboards, vocals), Steven Bernstein (trumpet) and Peter Apfelbaum (tenor sax) were ...
