With an impressive discography boasting fourteen recordings as a leader\, Harris has established himself as one of the jazz world’s most acclaimed vocalists\, possessing a potent combination of dynamic vocal abilities\, impeccable phrasing\, and powerful emotional resonance. \nGloria Reuben is an actress\, singer\, and author whose credits span television\, film\, theater\, and music.
