Jazz in My Soul

More about the book

Jazz in My Soul/A Marvin Gaye Fantasy/Thought -provoking one act musical stage play. A delightful, fantasy, dream sequence about a woman who dreams of Marvin Gaye every April 1st (the day of his death) for over 30 years. Each year her dream is the same, a dream haunted by beautiful torch songs recorded by Marvin in 1968 and reworked in 1978. She is a lover of jazz music and obsessed with those beautiful jazz ballads Marvin prepared (in her mind) to make his jazz debut, those songs that serenaded her every night before falling off to sleep. But only in April would the dreams come…the same lovely dream over and over year after year until the day of our play. That is when things take an unsuspected turn.
