Bennie Beretta, Latin Jazz Vocalist-Sings Smooth Sounds

I was born in Puerto Rico many years ago, but I lived, breathed, and sang in New York City most of my life. I used to frequent the jazz joints and sit in from time to time and sing a couple of songs. I just loved to belt out some of the old standards. Just like Ella, Billie, Vaughn, Garland, and countless others who have sang way before me, and who have influenced my listening. I left New York about ten years ago, and went on to Harrisburg, PA, where I lived and sang for awhile, but nothing compared with the excitement and the education I gained in New York. I live in West Michigan now, and I miss singing. So now I'm trying to get that feeling back again with a little help from my friends, and continue where I left off 15 years ago. I have made many friends and I hope to make some new ones too.

So if you want to listen to the soothing sounds of jazz, check out my page at SoundClick to hear some of my Mp3 samples of those favorite songs. (As soon as I know how to put them on this site, I will :) Sometime in the future I will be adding some Latin tunes as well. Let me and my music friends make that special party or reception truly special with a little classy jazz.

Intrigued? Go ahead...what can you lose?
Curious? Dial 616/481-0348 or email me at berettab@gvsu.edu. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Ciao :)
