If you are a male jazz singer that is looking to take your performance to the next level, then this will be a great opportunity for you. Jazz singers Allan Harris and Ernie Andrews have formed the group The Gentlemen Sing: Three Generations of Song and they are searching for a third male voice to complete the group.According to a press release, this project is the brainchild of Marty Ashby and MCG Jazz will be opening the search with a nationwide call for submissions from young male jazz vocalists, followed by live auditions here in Pittsburgh with Allan Harris and Freddy Cole. The project will culminate in a two-concert presentation showcasing Allan Harris, Jazz Master Ernie Andrews and a brand new jazz star!
MCG Jazz invites young male jazz vocalists, ages 18 to 35, to submit resumes and videos and compete to win the ultimate prize: a 2-show live concert appearance at MCG Jazz on February 28, 2014 with superstar Allan Harris and living legend Ernie Andrews.
Every entry must include the application (downloadable at MCGJazz.org), a resume and a 5 to 7-minute video that includes the individual singing “It Could Happen to You” in a medium tempo and one tune of his choosing.
Submissions are being accepted electronically now through September 13, 2013.
Submit your video online via YouTube using the tag “MCGGen3” and email your application to kfriedson@mcg-btc.org.
Alternatively, you may send a DVD with your application to MCG Jazz, Attention: Kahmeela Friedson, 1815 Metropolitan Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15233.
