After 2 years in Vienna, I'm moving back to the USA for a year. Starting in July, I'll be hopping between New York, Boston, and Washington DC, working on some new projects. Stay tuned for updates!

James Hall, as a musician, possesses that rarely-occurring combination of inherent classical talent and lust-for-life exuberance. He and his well-selected musical collaborators are a pleasure to watch (and a delight to hear). James can transform an overcooked pop song into a jazzical masterpiece, or simmer a traditional standard into a musical memory.
