Following her last sell-out show, Helen returns, this time with acclaimed saxophonist Renato D’Aiello and his quartet with exciting arrangements of jazz standards from their album “Amici”- songs by Jimmy Van Heusen, Rodgers and Hart, Harry Warren, Vernon Duke, Mack Gordon, Cy Coleman the BeeGees and more.. Great songs, a great band and great jazz guaranteed! Helen Theophanous has a background in classical, show and jazz songs, but jazz is her first choice. She has performed with many leading jazz musicians, most recently appearing regularly as featured singer at Ronnie’s Bar with the Renato D’Aiello quartet. An album “Amici” is due to be released this Autumn, with Renato’s inspired arrangements perfectly complementing Helen’s rich tones in songs by Jimmy Van Heusen, Mack Gordon, Cy Coleman ,Guy Wood and many more.

Claire Martin OBE said of Helen  “Stunning……classy…..”.
“Renato is a saxophonist with a passionate and poetic soul. He has all the virtues-a beautiful sense of time and pacing and a technique which effortlessly projects his brilliantly flowing ideas”  Ian Carr, Jazz Writer (Miles Davis Biographer).   http://londonjazz.net/ai1ec_event/helen-theophanous-amici-with-the-renato-daiello-quartet/?instance_id=
