“Jazz Nativity� seeks boy soprano
-
- November
- 13
I am a Christmas music freak.
I listen to Handel’s “Messiah” year-round. You should hear my 7-year-old son sing the “Hallelujah Chorus.” So I’m pleased to pass on the news that “Bending Towards the Light – Jazz Nativity” is coming to Nyack’s Riverspace on Dec. 21 at 8 p.m.
And even more pleased to tell you that Anne Phillips and Bob Kindred — the writer/producers of the piece — are looking for a boy soprano to sing the title song “Bending Towards the Light.”
On Monday, Nov. 19, they’ll audition for a 7- to 12-year-old male soprano to play the shepard boy who will sing the title song. Â The rest of the cast for this wondrous mix of theatre and jazz will be top New York jazz cats and singers.
Auditions will be held at Riverspace, 119 Main St., Nyack on Nov. 19 from 6 to 8 p.m.
