This concert is a walk down memory lane for those who remember Sarah "Sassy" Vaughan, and an enlightening experience for those just getting to know her…
The Concert begins with Sarah’s younger days, before she became the phenom that catapulted her into the rich tapestry of “Jazz Greats”. It was 1942 when she entered the Apollo Theater’s Amateur contest and won with her rendition of “Body and Soul”, earning her a meager ten dollars for a week’s engagement at the famed Apollo Theater and an opportunity to open for none other than Ella Fitzgerald.
