StLJN Saturday at the Movies:
Kurt Elling's "Winelight" and
Waverly Seven's "Nature Boy"



This week, we've got videos featuring two of the acts that will be performing in November at Jazz at the Bistro.

The first clip features singer Kurt Elling, who will be returning to the Bistro with his trio from November 14 to November 17. He's seen here in a clip recorded in Poland in 2005 performing his version of "Winelight," a Grover Washington tune to which Elling added his own lyrics.

The second video features the group Waverly Seven, who will make their St. Louis debut at the Bistro November 28 through December 1, splitting the bill with saxophonist/clarinetist Anat Cohen's quartet. The song is the familiar standard "Nature Boy," and the video is from band's New York City debut last spring at the Jazz Standard.
