Our set at ‘All That Jazz’ will feature the latest addition to our INCREDIBLE rotation of Greater Boston-and New York City-based jazz vocalists, the ultra-talented Juliana Bautista. She’ll be channelin’ Ella Fitzgerald, Natalie Cole, and much more - the best vocal treatments of the Great American Songbook and beyond. And, as if THAT’S not enough, the band will sprinkle in a few instrumental features from greats as Gordon Goodwin, Stan Kenton, Buddy Rich, and one or two additions.

Juliana will be channelin’ a lot of classic arrangements crafted for the incomparable Ella Fitzgerald , Natalie Cole, Tierney Sutton, and others. She’s a Montréal-born jazz vocalist, composer, and educator known for her warm tone, multilingual versatility, and dynamic stage presence. Juliana has performed at major venues and festivals across Québec and New England, including the Montreal International Jazz Festival, Boston’s Jordan Hall, and the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport, Massachusetts. Currently based between Montréal and Boston, she is completing her undergraduate studies in Jazz Voice Performance at the New England Conservatory, where she has worked closely with acclaimed artists including Dominique Eade, Jason Moran and Sara Serpa.

In addition to performing, Juliana is an active composer and educator. Her original music draws from the Great American Songbook, Latin jazz, and contemporary influences, and she teaches private voice and piano with a focus on creativity, confidence, and technical foundation.
