Rose Mallett

Rose Mallett brought the audience to its feet in her first performance at the Library. This year, she’s back by popular demand for another evening of classic jazz. Honored as a “Living Jazz Legend” at Los Angeles City Hall, the Chicago native brings her own warmth and phrasing to the music of Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, and Lena Horne. Experience Mallett's beautiful and entertaining take on these timeless songs as she brings out their wit, heartache, and joy in a style all her own. This program is made possible by a generous gift from Jerry and Lori Ernst.
