Dee Dee Bridgewater and Bill Charlap have teamed up to create Elemental…a spontaneous celebration of the great American composers such as Cole Porter, George Gershwin and Duke Ellington. 

Marty Duda found pianist Bill Charlap in Oakland just days after the duo performed at the famed Hollywood Bowl. Watch and listen as Bill explains how he and Dee Dee have a “serious” good time making this music together.
