Sandy Evans, Andrea Keller, Kristin Berardi, Jenny Barnes.
Resonance brings together four world-renowned improviser-composers who use their collective voice to shatter against the glass ceiling. Co-leaders Sandy Evans (saxophones) and Andrea Keller (piano) stand among Australia's most distinguished contemporary jazz musicians. They are joined by Kristin Berardi, an internationally renowned Australian jazz singer now based in Switzerland, and Jenny Barnes, whose vocal practice grows out of her deep study of linguistics in improvisation.
The suite draws on their shared experience of building a creative life while caring for partners, children, aging parents and community. It speaks to the demands placed on mid-career and elder women, and to a jazz scene and a society still slow to recognise them. Lyrics for the project were commissioned, premiering new works by Michele Morgan, Hazel Smith and Andrea Keller alongside poems by Sara Teasdale and Jeannie Greensfelder.
This project will inspire meaningful conversations about gender, creativity, and the challenges faced by women in the arts.
