Following stints in Italy and Seattle\, WA\, she moved to New York City in 2003. \nHilary has released three recordings as a leader\, receiving critical acclaim from the jazz world’s major publications; DownBeat Magazine declared her “an artist to watch” and named her a Rising Star Female Vocalist four years in a row. In 2010\, the Frank Sinatra estate chose Hilary to appear as the live\, onstage singer in Tony-award winner Twyla Tharp’s Broadway hit\, COME FLY AWAY. Backed by a 19-piece big band\, Hilary sang solos and duets with Frank Sinatra in a performance hailed by critics as “wonderful” (Huffington Post)\, “elegant” (USA Today)\, and “terrific” (New York Observer). \nPamela Bruce is a teacher\, performer\, and creative artist based out of Nyack\, NY. She began experimenting with the piano in her parent’s basement as a young child and began formal lessons that prepared her for her undergraduate studies where she earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Music Performance from the University of Massachusetts Lowell. Her passions are wide ranging to include jazz\, improvisation\, composition\, harp playing\, guitar\, and exploring new favorite composers like Eric Satie and Phillip Glass. She teaches piano\, harp\, and beginner’s guitar out of her studio in Nyack\, NY and is also a traveling teacher to nearby towns such as Nanuet\, Valley Cottage\, Monsey\, and Airmont. \nOnline Registration:\nIf you are registering via a mobile device such as a phone or tablet\, you can scroll right and left and up and down within the below form if it is partially obscured or cut off.
