| | Release Date: | | 08/21/2013 | | Description: | | Swedish singer Sidsel Storm grew up in a farm run by her relatives, and soaked up music through live performances of her father who was a folk musician. She studied harmonica, cello and violin before turning seriously to singing. Her 2008 eponymous debut album won the Danish Music Award in the best domestic jazz vocal category. Since then she has released two more albums, featuring first-rate Scandinavian jazz musicians including Lars Jansson, Magnus Hjorth and Morten Lund.
Scandinavian Romance is a special compilation CD, exclusively planned and produced for the Japanese market, which picks the best tracks from her three albums. She is beloved by Japanese jazz fans and audiophiles, which reflect the quality of both performance and recorded sound of her work. About half of the selections are covers of jazz standards. Some of them have daring arrangements, such as "Caravan" which sizzles with dissonance. And, it is quite impressive that the program contains no less than six original compositions which stand up quite well with the covers.
This is a wonderful showcase of the singing and song-writing talent of a young artist, and the best way to get acquainted to Sidsel Storm's music. In addition to her vocals, I cannot stress enough how good the supporting musicians are, creating scintillating soundscapes behind and around her voice. The sound quality is also very good throughout. Recommended!
This compilation released exclusively in Japan by Victor Entertainment in 2013 and contains materials originally released in 2008, 2010 and 2012. | | Eastwind Import Price: | |
