London based Italian singer Viviana Zarbo comes to the Pizza Express jazz Club for the first time to present her debut album ‘Take Away’. Inspired by great jazz Divas like Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Anita O’Day as well as actresses/singers like Julie London, Doris Day, Peggy Lee, Marilyn Monroe and arranged by the saxophonist Renato D’Aiello and the trombonist Mark Bassey,  ‘Take Away’ is a collection of Viviana's favourites like ‘What a little moonlight can do’, ‘Fine Romance’, ‘After you get what you want you don't want it’, which became the foundations of her artistic persona. Charming, strong, a velvety voice with a true passion for storytelling: Viviana is a versatile artist whose musical theatre background enriched and enhanced her naturally multifaceted jazz vibe.
