Description
An old soul with futuristic ambitions and a voice so contemporary that it transcends space and time – that’s Cécile McLorin Salvant. Blessed with praise, top rankings in competitions and on critics’ lists, Grammys, and lucrative prizes, the singer was considered by Der Spiegel to be the heir to Billie Holiday and was simply the best jazz singer of the last decade according to The New York Times.
Cécile McLorin Salvant captivates audiences, especially in concert – exuberant one moment, sensually gentle the next. She shines on festival stages with her sensitive power band or barefoot, unamplified, and a cappella in the Elbphilharmonie – always with that disarmingly honest mixture of suffering and happiness that defines Cécile McLorin Salvant. No one who experiences her live remains untouched.
With her top-class band, often accompanied by pianist Sullivan Fortner or percussionist Weedie Braimah, she captivates audiences around the world. Just recently, when she performed at the Edinburgh Festival, one critic wrote: »This will be a short review. In fact, I am tempted to write the word ‘sensational’ and leave it at that.«
