The Jazz Mass with Bob Sedergreen and Carl Pannuzzo

Jazz Mass and its history

Bob Sedergreen and Carl Pannuzzo at Jazz Mass on Sunday 1 November

Bob Sedergreen has worked with famous African American jazz icons like Jimmy Witherspoon, Dizzy Gillespie, Nat Adderley, and Red Holloway. These experiences have led Bob to acknowledge that Blues and Gospel styles are the roots of jazz music. In Australia Bob has worked with two iconic gospel Queens, being Judy Jacques and Kerri Simpson and both these artists have performed at the Gospel service on numerous occasions with Bob on piano.

Carl Pannuzzo, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, autodidact, songwriter and educator, is in demand nationally and internationally, performing/recording with many artists and projects as varied as Bob Sedergreen, Mia Dyson, Paul Grabowsky, Vika and Linda Bull, Opera Australia, Casey Bennetto, Cirque du Soleil, Tripod, Checkerboard Lounge, Acapelicans and Music Outback.

As an original creator and interpreter of soul and blues classics, Carl is recognised as a sensitive, dynamic and fearless singer, a quickfire musical mind and affable and engaging stage presence. Carl enjoys being a messenger for the articulate truth of music and delivers it with a balance of respect and abandon.
