Campus JAX

Some jazz performances impress you. Others make you feel as though you have been invited into a private conversation between two masters.
Roberta Gambarini and Tamir Hendelman belong in that second category.
On Tuesday, July 21, Campus JAX welcomes one of the great vocal-piano pairings in modern jazz: an intimate evening with internationally acclaimed vocalist Roberta Gambarini and celebrated pianist, composer, and arranger Tamir Hendelman. This is the kind of night that rewards close listening — voice and piano in direct dialogue, full of swing, elegance, humor, risk, lyric beauty, and the kind of musical trust that only comes from artists who have lived deeply inside the tradition.
Roberta Gambarini is widely regarded as one of the preeminent jazz vocalists of her generation. Born in Turin, Italy, she burst onto the international jazz scene in 1998 as a runner-up in the Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition, then went on to perform at some of the world’s most prestigious venues, including Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, major festivals such as Monterey and Newport, and New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club. Her artistry has earned multiple Grammy nominations, including recognition for her albums Easy to Love and So in Love, and her official site describes her as a singer, lyricist, arranger, and educator.
What makes Gambarini extraordinary is not only the beauty of the voice, but the depth of the musicianship. She sings with the command of an instrumentalist, the phrasing of a great horn player, and the emotional clarity of a storyteller. Her lineage runs through Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, Carmen McRae, Billie Holiday, and the great bebop masters — but the result is not imitation. It is living jazz: deeply rooted, technically fearless, and completely present in the moment.
Tamir Hendelman is the ideal partner for that kind of artistry. Born in Tel Aviv and raised in Los Angeles, Hendelman began keyboard studies at age six, won Yamaha’s national keyboard competition at fourteen, and later earned his degree in composition from the Eastman School of Music. Since 2000, he has toured internationally with his own trio, the Jeff Hamilton Trio, and the Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra, while becoming one of the most sought-after pianist-arrangers for vocalists. His work includes performances and recordings with Natalie Cole, Roberta Gambarini, Jackie Ryan, and Barbra Streisand — including Streisand’s celebrated return to jazz at the Village Vanguard.
Together, Gambarini and Hendelman offer something rare: the grandeur of the Great American Songbook in its most intimate form. Their duo setting allows every phrase, every harmonic turn, every breath, and every improvisational spark to matter. Audiences can expect beloved standards, bebop gems, Brazilian and Jobim-inspired colors, ballads, and spontaneous reinventions shaped in real time by two artists with extraordinary ears and deep mutual respect. Their recent duo appearances have been described as celebrations of the Great American Songbook, bebop evergreens, lesser-known Jobim, and more; Hendelman also recorded on Gambarini’s Easy to Love and So in Love albums and has toured with her in the U.S., Europe, and Japan.
This is not simply a concert. It is a close-up encounter with the language of jazz itself — voice and piano, melody and harmony, tradition and invention, two master musicians discovering the night together.
Tuesday, July 21 at Campus JAX: Roberta Gambarini and Tamir Hendelman bring the Songbook, swing, bebop, and soul into one intimate, unforgettable evening.
Artist Bio: Roberta Gambarini Roberta Gambarini is a multi-Grammy-nominated jazz vocalist, lyricist, arranger, and educator whose artistry places her among the most respected singers in contemporary jazz. Born and raised in Turin, Italy, Gambarini grew up surrounded by jazz and began performing professionally before moving to the United States, where she quickly made a major impression as a runner-up in the 1998 Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocal Competition.
Since then, she has built an international career performing at leading venues and festivals, including Carnegie Hall, the Hollywood Bowl, Monterey, Newport, and New York’s Blue Note Jazz Club. Her collaborators include many of the masters of the music: James Moody, Roy Hargrove, Hank Jones, Herbie Hancock, Dave Brubeck, Chucho Valdés, Paquito D’Rivera, and the Dizzy Gillespie All Stars Big Band.
Gambarini’s recordings have earned major critical recognition, including Grammy nominations for Easy to Love and So in Love, as well as honors from the French National Jazz Academy. In 2023, the French Ministry of Culture awarded her the title of Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres, one of France’s highest honors for artists.

There are singers who perform jazz standards, and then there are singers who make the tradition feel alive in the room. April Varner belongs in the second category.
Winner of the 2023 International Ella Fitzgerald Jazz Vocal Competition, Varner arrives at Campus JAX as one of the most compelling young voices in modern jazz: a vocalist praised by DownBeat for her “impressive range,” recognized among its Rising Star Jazz Vocalists, and described as both a bebop technician and a contemporary storyteller.
Her connection to Ella Fitzgerald is more than a credential — it is a living artistic conversation. On her newest album, Ella, released via Cellar Music Group and produced by Ulysses Owens, Jr., Varner reimagines the First Lady of Song’s repertoire with fresh arrangements for both big band and intimate ensemble, bringing “emotional precision and ungoverned spontaneity” to songs forever associated with one of jazz’s most beloved voices.
But April Varner is not an imitator. She is a modern artist with deep roots. Her music lives where the American Songbook, vocalese, hard bop, swing, and contemporary storytelling meet. Online, she has drawn a large following by working through her own vocal transcriptions of iconic solos from artists like Freddie Hubbard and Lee Morgan — translating the language of great instrumental improvisers into her own voice with intelligence, humor, and fearless musicality.
A Toledo-born New Yorker, Varner has headlined at many of New York’s essential jazz rooms, including Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Dizzy’s Club, Mezzrow, Birdland, Minton’s Playhouse, The Django, Zinc Bar, and 55 Bar, while also appearing at major venues across the country and internationally in Paris. She has collaborated with a remarkable roster that includes Kurt Elling, Jane Monheit, John Pizzarelli, Ulysses Owens, Jr., Theo Bleckmann, Benny Benack III, Nicole Zuraitis, Dayna Stephens, Reuben Rogers, and the late Russell Malone.
For this special evening at Campus JAX, audiences can expect a vocalist who understands the tradition from the inside out: swinging standards, dazzling scat, nimble vocalese, warmth, wit, and the unmistakable joy that made Ella Fitzgerald timeless.
Thursday, July 23 at Campus JAX: April Varner brings the spirit of Ella, the fire of bebop, and the freshness of a new generation of jazz vocal artistry.

Having formed in 1988 and recently featured on AXS TV's "World's Greatest Tribute Bands", Led Zepagain has become highly regarded as the most authentic representation of Led Zeppelin in the world today.&nbsp;
In January of 2004, Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page himself attended a Led Zepagain show at the House of Blues in Los Angeles. He was absolutely astonished at the bands accuracy stating “It’s amazing how much you sound like us. You must have grown up on this because you were inside the music, and you paid attention to detail in your presentation…I can tell you guys really love the music!”&nbsp;
This encounter led to the members of Led Zepagain attending Led Zeppelin's 2007 Reunion Concert at London's O2 Arena and a surprise visit from Jason Bonham in March of 2009 as he sat in with the band on their encore performance of the song "Rock and Roll".&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w6noToYSqQ" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">youtube.com/watch?v=2w6noToYSqQ</a>
Having played nationally and internationally in such places as Japan, Ireland, Alaska, Germany, Bosnia, Peru, Canada, Kosovo, Mexico City and Guam, Led Zepagain regularly performs to packed houses all over the world. Come on out and see what Jimmy was talking about.
