Life is a song. Love is the music.
~Author Unknown
Willetta covers a musical range that spans from the romanticism of swing and the cool grooves of modern and pop jazz to the playful and sassy humor of the blues.
Combine this with a bit of love for Latin and the energy of the basin street bands of New Orleans and you have got the right mix for an emotional event of pure listening pleasure.
