Jazz and R&B singer Nancy Wilson, a Grammy and Emmy Award winner, gives a memorable performance with her flair for combining vocal refinement, elegance and emotional sincerity with dazzling panache. Filmed live from New York City's Carnegie Hall with a full string orchestra, this DVD concert performance not only showcases Wilson's unique blend of R&B, Jazz, Pop, Blues, Soul, and Gospel, but also includes two memorable duets with Carl Anderson, which made her the highlight of New York's JVC Jazz Festival.

Vocalist Nancy Wilson's accolades are many. Throughout the years, the public, the critics, and her peers have rewarded her with great praise, numerous awards and a multitude of nominations. Her talents have enabled her to carve out a prominent legacy in the music world. Time Magazine noted 'She is, all at once, both cool and sweet, both singer and storyteller,' and the Washington Post felt compelled to comment 'Her intonation is faultless, her pulse sure, and her deft turning of a phrase emotionally convincing.' Wilson herself simply prefers to be called a Song Stylist.
