THE BEST OF NOEL & MARIA
Noel Freidline and Maria Howell have established themselves as master re-interpreters of the greatest artists. With a body of work consists of over 15 themed shows, Noel and Maria will present the best of their themed “Jazz Celebrations”, including Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Motown, Chicago, Ella Fitzgerald, Hall & Oates, Billy Joel & Elton John and the Beatles. Come hear how this unique duo and their all-star band re-imagine some of the greatest hits of the 20th century.

Always approaching the music from “the left,” Noel and Maria have made a name for themselves as they offer listeners something they have heard, but that they have never heard before. Combine this fresh musical approach with a rapport and witty banter that harkens back to a bygone era, and you have Noel and Maria in their element: on stage, thrilling an audience at every turn.
