SHOWBOAT: Songs of Jerome Kern with Maud Hixson and Rick Carlson

Dunsmore Jazz Room 6161 Hwy 65 NE, Minneapolis

Dinner and drinks service starts 1 hour before showtimes. Great American Songbook Celebrating an early pioneer of the Broadway musical, including the ground-breaking Show Boat. Kern became a champion of more contemporary lyricists like the brilliant Dorothy Fields, and his work in stage and screen is now the backbone of the Great American Songbook. Featuring songs such as The Way You Look Tonight, The Song Is You and All The Things You Are. Maud Hixson: VocalsRick Carlson: Piano Hailed as “gently virtuosic” (All About Jazz), Maud Hixson is a devoted exponent of great songs, ranging from the classic Great American Songbook to the often unsung or forgotten compositions awaiting rediscovery. Based in Saint Paul, Minnesota, Maud made her Guthrie Theater debut in the Noel Coward revue Coward’s Women, also appearing in Park Square Theater’s The Soul of Gershwin. She teamed with Sir Richard Rodney Bennett in 2012 for the long-running Midtown Jazz at Midday concert series at Saint Peter’s and debuted her show Skyscraper Wits in London and New York in 2015. She has made three appearances at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Rose Hall for the New York Cabaret Convention, presented by the Mabel Mercer Foundation. Maud received a Next Step Grant from the McKnight Foundation in 2015 and is the recipient of four Artist Initiative grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board, one of which supported the research for her album comprised of compositions by Broadway composer Michael (Mickey) Leonard. Her newest recording is devoted to the music of her mentor, Sir Richard Rodney Bennett, which earned a 2024 Bistro Award. “Maud Hixson’s anticipated and thoroughly polished performances are just what we all need to hear. She really is in a class by herself.” –Rex Reed www.maudhixson.com
