Many jazz aficionados only know Jana Herzen as the founder and president of the acclaimed and grammy nominated Motéma label. What many may not realize, however, is that Ms. Herzen is a seasoned performer and instrumentalist with quite a talent for writing and performing. Her new cd, Passion of a Lonely Heart, features renowned bassist Charnett Moffett (McCoy Tyner, Wynton Marsalis, Ornette Coleman, Harry Connick, Jr., Anita Baker), and has been gaining international raves. Herzen plays folk and world tinged jazz on Passion of a Lonely Heart, and her influences range from Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen and Bob Marley to Miles Davis, Joe Pass, Leonard Bernstein and beyond. Much like the label that she runs, she has a penchant for crossing genres.
