Product Details
Salvant was just 23 when she recorded this, already commanding a vocal depth and interpretive maturity that stopped seasoned listeners cold. Her approach to the Great American Songbook and blues tradition draws from Sarah Vaughan and Bessie Smith without simply echoing either, finding something genuinely her own in the phrasing.
Once in a while, a new jazz artist arrives on the scene who reminds US of the power and glory of this music and shows how jazz can still stir our emotions and get our pulses racing in the present day. Cecile McLorin Salvant is that sort of artists. WOMANCHILD is her American debut release.
