Here's what people are saying about Jazz Is...

“Thank you for giving me a million dollar evening...I’ve heard/seen many operatic and Broadway performances and I can honestly say my evening of Jazz with you was definitely in the top three (you’re in the top 3 with The Lion King and The Color Purple)! Aida was good but that comes in 4th behind you. Phantom of the Opera, The Producers, Fiddler on the Roof, just to name a few all take a back seat to your performance Saturday and they were all good as well.”

“I enjoyed the entire evening -- starting with dinner. I think that was a good value @ $60. We just made it our date night. We don't get to do that type of thing very often, thank you for the package option.”

“Your performance completely made my week. I loved every minute of it. Your band was great, you looked amazing and I was so incredibly proud and happy for you! Bravo!!!”

“You were absolutely phenomenal Saturday evening! I am so grateful you thought to inform me of the event. I thought you were very touching during the 'Look of Love' days but this is out of this world. God truly has His hand on you!”

“Kathleen Bertrand's concert performance at the Southwest Art Center, on November the 9th, was an outstanding and classy musical event.
    Jazz is musical emotion-if you listen with your soul you can hear it and if you listen with your heart you can feel it.
    Kathleen's vocal command is a thing of beauty. Strong, vibrant, and textured, her voice produced a palette of colors and moods touching on blues, bossa, soul, gospel, and urban grooves.
    Her band includes some of Atlanta's best young musicians. Two musical highlights for me were 'Autumn Leaves' and 'What They See is What They’ll Be'; the latter written by Ms. Bertrand as a tribute to The 100 Black Men. The audience was enthralled throughout the concert. What a voice and what a classy lady! Kathleen Bertrand is music.”

“Jazz Is....was amazing tonight. Your voice is truly a beautiful gift, thank you for sharing it with us.”

“Thank you for hosting such a fantastic evening of 'Jazz is...' Fun, food, fellowship and awe-inspiring entertainment. I'm so proud of you!”

“I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much my wife, friends and I enjoyed your performance. My wife said it best when she described your talent as a higher level of singing compared to what we typically hear. Though we enjoyed the dinner and reception, I would have gladly paid the VIP price for the concert alone. My compliments to you and your band.”

"Your 'New Standards' is not what I expected - it is much more than I expected. :-) Of course I expected your sensual and sultry voice to deliver something sexy and stimulating and you certainly delivered all that plus some; with real energy. What I did not expect was to be touched so deeply and spiritually within my soul, and I thank you for that." . . . . Anthony, Atlanta, GA
