Details:
Jazz flows through the landmark Townhouse in the Hamilton Heights section of Harlem. Feet tap, bodies sway and taste buds are sated. The world outside that space becomes muted, the worries turned into possibilities. No, this is not a rent party like those of yesteryear, rather it’s just another day at the home of jazz vocalist Gregory Generet whose new CD, (re)generet-ion is finding its way outside of those storied walls and into the hands and ears of jazz enthusiasts everywhere.
“For anyone who is a singer the ultimate goal is to be able to stand before people and be the storyteller of each song,” says Generet “It’s not an easy thing to do."
With his first offering, these eight songs show that he is the perfect narrator of some of the finest stories of our time.
Taking on the theme of romance, Generet has re-imagined the term “Standard” by adding his own vocal flexibility and appreciation for the clarity that is innate to jazz aficionados.
During the gestation period before laying down the tracks for (re)generet-ion, Generet, also affectionately known as ‘Monsieur,” put together a list of songs that he’d performed in sets throughout New York City, as well as in Paris and Italy.
