Album combines classic & modern jazz with classical influences to pay homage to iconic performer. Given the substantial impact he had on the music and culture of his time, it can be shocking to remember that Nat ?King? Cole only lived to the age of 45. March 17, 2019 marked the 100th anniversary of Cole?s birth in Montgomery, Alabama; to celebrate, vocalist, arranger, and multi-instrumentalist Orice Jenkins will release Centennial Cole, a deeply personal tribute to the legendary pianist and singer that reinterprets songs immortalized by Cole with modern jazz and classical influences.
