Pictured above is the final Blossom Dearie Trio,
Dave Silliman on Drums and Ray Kilday on Bass.
America's remarkable jazz pianist, vocalist, and composer from the bebop era who was able to bridge the gap between west side rhythm and east side lyrical content throughout a career that swung into the current century. Here's Blossom's story
Jazz Vocalist and Pianist Blossom Dearie, her real name, was born in the little village of East Durham, in the Catskill Mountains of New York state. Her older brothers heralded her arrival by filling the house with pear blossoms, and she was named Blossom Margrethe(after her mother)Dearie. She was proudly of Scottish(Dearie) and Norwegian ancestry. At the age of two she was able to pick out songs on the family piano, and spent most of her young years finding laps to sit on at the piano to do just that. Debussy's Afternoon of the Faun was a favorite. Her mother remarked that unlike most children who would bang at the keys when in front of a piano, Blossom thoughtfully played songs from ear and memory. Lessons began around age five and she studied classical music until
Remembering Blossom Dearie: A Small Voice With A Mighty Impact
She was born Margrethe Blossom Dearie in East Durham, near Albany in upstate New York in , and with a name like hers it seems only natural that she should become a star.
Blossom Dearie studied classical piano as a child, before switching to jazz as a teenager. She joined Woody Herman’s vocal group, The Blue Flames, having moved to New York shortly after the end of the Second World War; she later joined the Blue Reys, the singing group with Alvino Rey&#;s band.
By , Blossom was living in Paris, appearing in nightclubs with singer Annie Ross. This was also the year in which she had her first – uncredited – hit with King Pleasure’s “Moody’s Mood for Love,” on which she sings. She formed a vocal group, the Blue Stars that included Michel Legrand&#;s sister, Christiane Legrand, and Bob Dorough. In they had a hit in France with a French-language version of “Lullaby of Birdland,” arranged by Michel Legrand. The Blue Stars later evolved into The Swingle Singers.
It was in Paris in that Norman Granz heard Blossom singing at a club and he signed her to Verve to record her debut in September that same year.
