VICTORIA - Jazz vocalist Miranda Sage has thrived by taking daring leaps into the=0D=0A=
unknown. But even by her own daunting standards, ‘Strayhorn, Mancini And Me’ is a=0D=0A=
bold venture, bringing an emotional yet sophisticated treasure trove of old jazz=0D=0A=
compositions and three new songs to the stage.=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
“Debuting three new tunes is exciting and revitalizing,” said Miranda Sage. “I predict it=0D=0A=
will be a memorable evening; an exhilaratingly good show and a defining moment in my=0D=0A=
career.”=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
The songs chosen for the show range from well-known Mancini and Strayhorn=0D=0A=
standards in fresh arrangements and interpretations, to Miranda’s own compositions.=0D=0A=
Sage debuts her lyrical new song 'Don't Fight The Future', will be singing new lyrics to=0D=0A=
Strayhorn's iconic 'Isfahan,' and sings an enchanting tune by Canadian Juno Award=0D=0A=
winner Don Thompson called ‘Gone Astray’ that was composed in the Strayhorn style=0D=0A=
but debuts with new Sage lyrics. The reinvigorated tune is called 'On This Day'.=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Look forward to hearing material from Miranda Sage’s fifth CD ‘Both Sides Now’ with a=0D=0A=
focus on Billy Strayhorn and Henry Mancini. Strayhorn, the gifted American composer,=0D=0A=
pianist and arranger is best known for his successful collaboration with bandleader and=0D=0A=
composer Duke Ellington; while the genius of the versatile Mancini is best remembered=0D=0A=
for changing the style of film background music by injecting jazz into the traditional=0D=0A=
orchestral arrangements of the 1950s.=0D=0A=
=0D=0A=
Expect to hear other Strayhorn favourites including 'A Flower is a Lovesome Thing' and=0D=0A=
