Adrienne has performed with some of the world’s most prominent musicians including: Johnny Griffin, Buddy Tate, Scott Hamilton, Al Cohn, Clark Terry, Harry “Sweets” Edison, Billy Cobham and Leonardo Amuedo to name just a few.

After five years of appearing on Broadway and in European and World touring companies of the Tony Award winning “Ain’t Misbehavin'”, Adrienne decided to make Amsterdam her home where she lives with her husband. She completed a two year European musical theatre tour entitled “George Gershwin: The Musical Gala” as a featured soloist. She also performed the role of Bessie Smith in “Mahalia” (a musical theatre tribute to Mahalia Jackson). She was a member for many years of the “Four Ladies Of Swing”, a concert jazz program.
