June 21, 2009: Roberta Gamborini

Father's Day Jazz and Dinner Option with jazz singer Roberta Gambarini and the Eric Gunnison Trio

Grammy-nominee, Italian jazz singer Roberta Gambarini arrives at Las Campanas straight from her engagement at The Blue Note in New York City. Her first release "Easy to Love" was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Vocal Jazz Category in 2007. That same year, DownBeat Magazine called her talent "formidable" and she was named the 2007 Female Jazz Singer of the Year by the Jazz Journalists Association (JJA). In 2008, she was named "Rising Star Female Vocalist of the Year" in DownBeat Magazine's Critic's Poll.



That same year, Roberta made her major label debut with the legendary pianist Hank Jones on "You Are There" (Groovin' High/Emarcy).  She has also performed with Herbie Hancock, Roy Hargrove, James Moody, Christian McBride and Toots Thielemans to name a few.

She is a true successor to jazz legends Ella Fitzgerald, Sarah Vaughan, and Carmen McRae.
