Mortonthe self-proclaimed inventor of jazzand Gershwin, who incorporated the spirit of jazz into his popular orchestral compositions, have had a lasting impact on American music. Their compositions are sublimely rendered by pianists Diehl (Monterey Jazz Festival's Commission Artist for 2014) and Birnbaum with vocalist Salvant (winner of the 2010 Thelonious Monk Institute competition), who The New York Times calls, the finest jazz singer to emerge in the last decade.
