July 28, 2025

From: Oregon Festival of American Music

With OFAM 2025 Summer, Chuck Redd and company (including guest directors Will & Peter Anderson, Shirley Andress, Lynnea Barry and Siri Vik) continue their celebration of popular and jazz musicians’ ongoing interpretations and reinterpretations of their musical source material. While continuing their look—begun at OFAM 2025 Winter—at jazz musicians’ adoption of songs from the Classic Songbook (featuring Jerome Kern, Harry Warren, Jimmy Van Heusen among others), they will also look at source material originally written as jazz (Duke Ellington, Hoagy Carmichael, Louis Armstrong, etc.) which became jazz standards and often Songbook standards as well.
