Jean Fineberg[edit]

Education[edit]

Jean Fineberg holds M.Ed, B.S., and B.A. Degrees from Penn State University. ^[1]

Career[edit]

Jean Fineberg grew up in the Bronx, first breaking onto the music scene in New York City.

Her discography contains more than 40 albums, and her compositions for 18-piece Jazz Orchestra have been performed at Carnegie Hall, the Grammys, the Kennedy Center and the Monterey Jazz Festival

One of Jean's most famous appearances was on David Bowie's 1975 album "Young Americans". Jean describes a spontaneous recording session with Bowie, ending in a listening session with Phillip Glass. Fineberg recorded a flute solo on the track "Fame" which was ultimately cut from the song, although her background vocals remained. Eventually, an internet version with the original flute solo surfaced. ^[2]

Fineberg moved west in 1989, settling in the San Fransisco Bay Area with her partner Ellen Seeling. The couple led the Montclair Women's Big Band for a number of years before Fineberg founded JAZZphoria.
