Highly regarded Dutch jazz vocalist with an eclectic repertoire of jazz classics, from the title of the show, the Irving Berlin song, “Blue Skies” together with swing and Latin numbers featuring compositions by Marcos Valle, AC Jobim, Paul McCartney, Freddie Hubbard, Kurt Weill, Artie Butler & Michel Legrand. Born into a musical family in the Netherlands, Wilma was spoon fed music – Bach and Miles Davis in equal amounts. Her father, a cello & bass player, would take her to the music store to purchase the latest recordings of all the influential jazz musicians in the 60s and 70s, subsequently spending the evening together listening to the exciting interpretations of jazz standards by Mark Murphy, Sarah Vaughan, Chet Baker, Nancy Wilson, Bill Evans, and all the other wonderful musicians rising to fame during that time. So, music was in Wilma’s blood, and to her it felt as natural as breathing. Wilma will be ably supported on the night by a wonderful trio; Alex Hutton, piano, Jerome Davies, double bass and Matthew Skeaping, drums. 8.30pm Tickets £12 in advance & £14 on the door
