Peter Yellen & Dressed in Black
When the head of neurology at Craig Hospital needed the perfect
entertainment for the guests at his wedding, he hired Tony Bennett. He
then decided the perfect compliment to this extraordinary entertainer
and the most perfect entertainment for dinner and dacing was...Peter
Yellen.
The biannual "Wines for Life" cancer fundraising gala
called on Peter toshare the stage with Billy Crystal in 1998 and again
with Michael Bolton in 2000 to raise record-breaking contributions for
this very worthy cause.
The music for dinner and dancing provided
by Peter and his band was the added magic needed when he performed wiith
Lou Rawls at the National Jewish Hospital Gala in 1999.
Music for The Cancer League's 500-plus gathering in the spring of 2002 had
both Dressed in Black and the 28-piece Neophonic Orchestra. This
collaboration produced by Ananda Music made for a most successful evening
and ensuing CD available upon request.The newly opened Ritz-Carlton Hotel in
Beaver Creek, CO selected Dressed in Black to make their 2003 New Year's
celebration something truly special.
In April of 2006 Dressed in
Black performed at the wedding of NBCs Campbell Brown to Dan Senor of Fox
News. A great time was had by all...
Whether it's a small gathering
where the music needs to be intimate or a gala of grand proportions, Peter
Yellen's band Dressed in Black might very well be the most timely call you
can make.
