Philadelphia, PA: The Philadelphia Jazz Project Presents - Retro Love - a evening-length performance of poetry, songs and jazz that capture relationships before the Internet. This project is conceived and written by poet and performer Beth Feldman Brandt , featuring actress/singer, Joilet Harris (Twelve Monkeys, Animal Factory The Wire), and Monnette Sudler serves as music director and composer.
Beth Feldman Brandt is a poet whose writing has investigated such diverse themes as old maps, herbal remedies and, now, dating before the Internet. She is the author of "Sage" and "Solace", both collaborations with visual artist Claire Owen. Her song cycle, "Wind Rose", is being set to music by Philadelphia composer Andrew Litts who collaborated on an earlier work, "Transmutation", which was performed by Network for New Music. She is the Executive Director of the Stockton Rush Bartol Foundation that supports arts and cultural programs in Philadelphia and is Chair of the Poet Laureate Committee for the City of Philadelphia. Beth is a five-time artist-in-residence at the Ragdale Foundation where much of her work was created.
Grammy nominated composer/jazz guitarist/vocalist/bandleader Monnette Sudler is known as the "First Lady of Jazz Guitar." Founder of the Monnette Sudler's Philadelphia Guitar Summit, Sudler brings national and international master guitarists to Philadelphia/ Montgomery County stages "Fusing guitars one string at a time." She is the recipient of the Leeway Transformation Award, Art and Change, awards from American Composers Forum, and the 2012 and 2013 Clef Club Guitarist of the year awards.
