Mary Ann Hurst, vocalist, born in Long Island, New York and raised in US, Europe and Asia. She's performed in musical theatre, jazz performance, symphony chorus, college/church choirs. Her initial exposure to jazz came via her WWII parents' album collection. Key moments that developed an interest in jazz include listening to Duke Ellington in Marseilles, France under the stars by the sea, watching «Satchmo» perform, seeing Ella live several times, and meeting jazz luminaries throughout the years: Clark Terry, Michel Legrand, Grady Tate, Quincy Jones. She's taken workshops with Barry Harris, Sheila Jordan, Mili Bermijio, Jay Clayton, Kurt Elling, and others. For several years her focus was on building positive China-US relations through education and arts exchange programs. She collected and translated Chinese folksongs while living in Beijing and later recorded the cd «Chinese Folksongs in a Jazz Mode» with Texas' top jazz musicians while living in San Antonio.
