    Story Behind the Song
    In 1989 Jan Shapiro received a research project gran from the National Endowment of the Arts. This enabled her to conduct research about the Boswell Sisters as well as interviews with Vet Boswell, musicians, vocalists and those musically influenced by the Boswell Sisters. This research opened the door for a new idea. During the Jazz Educators Conference in New Orleans, last year, Jan decided to contact Voice Faculty Berklee Colleagues, Adriana Balic and Lisa Thorson, and practice some of the arrangements from the Boswell Sisters and perform them during the conference. The response was extraordinary. Many participants ask them for their CD and that is how Boswellmania! was borned.
