He is known for his interpretations of American popular songs and has recorded albums featuring the music of Hoagy Carmichael, Leonard Bernstein and George Gershwin. Bill is artistic director of New York City’s Jazz in July Festival and has produced concerts for Jazz at Lincoln Center at the Hollywood Bowl. READ MORE
