Cécile McLorin Salvant

The best jazz singer of the last decade

An old soul with futuristic ambitions and a voice so contemporary that it can transcend space and time – that’s Cécile McLorin Salvant. Blessed with hymns of praise, top places at competitions and on critics’ lists, Grammys and money-spinning prizes, the 34-year-old singer was regarded by Der Spiegel as the »heiress of Billie Holiday« and for the New York Times was simply »the best jazz singer of the last decade«.
