Sarah McKenzie Quartet

Event date: This event has already passed.

Donovan Pavilion is the ideal winter setting for the jazz series, turning the lovely venue into a Rocky Mountain jazz club, with club-style seating and food and beverage service provided by eat!drink! 20% of sales support Vail Jazz. A native of Melbourne, Australia, Sarah McKenzie made her debut performance at the Umbria Jazz Festival Competition in 2012, where she was awarded a full scholarship to attend the iconic Berklee College of Music. After graduating she was quickly signed by impulse!, and her second album, Close Your Eyes, won the Best Jazz Album ARIA award (Australian Grammy). McKenzie’s full-bodied touch on the piano, paired with her delicate yet soaring vocal finesse, evoke qualities of Norah Jones or Diana Krall. Already known for her mature instrumental and vocal phrasing, this international rising star has demonstrated experience beyond her years.

Tickets start at $30. For more information visit the Vail Jazz website.
