When she learned she only had months to live,
Denise decided to record a final CD. Though her
strength was failing, she went into the studio
for three sessions and gave it her all. Though her
lusty contralto was weak, the familiar “voice with a heart”
artistry was intact – the perfect swing, the impeccable phrasing,
the favorite asides.
The CD, titled “The Phoenix,” has been completed
and a release party is in the works, possibly for November.
For further information. Contact her manager, Catherine Cusic at
CCUSIC@pacbell.net or
Denise's daughter in law Elisha at elishachoice@sbcglobal.net
