[img_inline align=”right” src=”http://padnws01.mcmaster.ca/images/Brown.Jeri.final.jpg”]The final concert in the Ladies of Jazz series takes place Friday, March 15.

Jazz vocalist and international recording star Jeri Brown takes to the Convocation Hall stage at 8 p.m.

Brown's latest CD, Image in the Mirror: The Triptych, actually transforms the singer into a bonafide actress. With
songs by Milton Sealey, the disc takes the shape of a “fictional dramatic piece” in three acts plus introduction and epilogue,
conceived and produced by Jeri Brown.

Brown's songs from Image sketch the core journey of the work: a woman's growth through love to self-awareness.

The concert will include selections from Brown's recording career with special features from 8 Justin Time and CBC recordings. Her repertoire includes jazz standards and Canadian composer jazz compositions with music such as I've Got Rhythm, Soft, As In A Morning Sunrise, Afro Blue, Tenderly and others.

Tickets are $20 and available by calling the
School of the Arts Box Office at ext. 23333 or the School of the Arts at ext. 27671.
