Tamar Korn, Sounds like a Violin, Looks Like a Forties Angel

Tamar Korn, 29, will amaze you with her voice. Not only can she channel big band singers of the forties, but here we caught her at a show at SouthPaw in Brooklyn mimicking a violin playing “Stormy Weather.”  Korn, who was weaned on Ella Fitzgerald and jazz standards in her Northern California family, heard her father, an actual violinist, play tunes from her crib. And now you can catch her all around NYC with jazz group, the Cangelosi Cards, which consists of a full orchestra that also incorporates folk and Americana into the mix. What’s cool is that she can improvise to any tune, taking on jazz dissonance in her vocals and also imitating instruments as heard here. Korn has performed with them and others in France, China, and Canada to name a few. And she’s really something unique to see in person. Check out: CangelosiCards
