Dina Blade and Hans Brehmer: "My Funny Valentine" A tribute to the great lyricists of the 1930's-40's "My Funny Valentine" is a tribute to the lyricists of the Great American Songbook, who wrote the timeless love songs that have been recorded and performed by several generations of singers. This lively presentation of familiar hits (including many verses) and obscure gems will feature the superb craftsmanship of "masters of the colloquial phrase" like Cole Porter, Irving Berlin, Ira Gershwin, Lorenz Hart, Dorothy Fields, Johnny Mercer, Frank Loesser, and a host of others. Each set is sprinkled with anecdotal patter and trivia about the songwriters that propelled the evolution of the Broadway musical into the Swing Years and beyond. Come out and hear the multitude of ways to say "I Love You"! "light , sassy and fun." -Jazz Steps Magazine Dina Blade lives in Seattle, Washington and performs regularly at jazz clubs, schools, libraries and festivals in the Northwest. She has done extensive outreach with musical programs designed to educate and entertain audiences of all ages.
