Andrea Wolper Trio at Chapel Restoration

"A savvy, expressive singer with impeccable taste in collaborators."
-- Time Out New York

"Andrea Wolper takes risky, but worthy shots at amping up the entire experience, without taking away from the emotional curiosity and thrill that are intrinsically her landscape. . . She has the captivating energy and chops necessary to keep up the pace, be it low and slow, quick-fire, or all emotive points in between. And then some."
-- Carol Banks Weber, Examiner.com

"To hear the effortless, warm notes that Wolper conjures forth is to hear the sound of a woman truly born to sing. Her voice soars and slides as though perfectly at home, stepping softly down well-worn hallways of smoky jazz, climbing gracefully up stairs of cheery elegance, and descending fearlessly into darkened basement corners of melancholic blues. With a repertoire that comprises uniquely interpreted standards, original compositions, and even the odd poem set to music, Wolper offers up a variety of textures and moods in her music."...

The Chapel Restoration concludes its 2012 evening music series with the incomparable NYC vocalist, Andrea Wolper, joined by her accomplished trio, Ken Filiano on bass (returning for the second time in as many months to Chapel Restoration, after performing with Jason KaoHwang's EDGE ensemble in October) and Michael Howell on guitar. They perform at Chapel Restoration on Saturday, November 17 at 7:30 pm. Admission is $15 at the door, $10 for seniors and students. The Chapel Restoration is located at 45 Market Street in Cold SPring, NY. Free parking is available directly across the street from the Chapel at the Cold Spring Metro-North train station.

Wolper's distinctively alluring vocals have distinguished her in a music that does not lack for distinctive vocals. From standards to originals, Wolper's remarkable artistry is immediately recognizable and undeniable. As Chuck Graham of the Tucson Citizen put it so succinctly: "The core of Wolper's sound is a hip tenderness…highly recommended for anyone who believes in the timeless essence of cool." Joined by two major figures on the current jazz scene (and, in the case of bassist Filiano, Ms. Wolper's husband), the experience of the Andrea Wolper Trio is at once thrilling, intimate and unforgettable.
