This is her fourth album exploring the standards and the reviews have all been sterling. The emphasis here is on the ballads and her breathy emphasis and phrasing are nothing less than spectacular and riveting. Her vocals are not \"dressed up\" or enhanced by studio technique. What you get is pure, raw singing talent that shines like a fine jewel. Amazon.ca Stacey Kent has given jazz singing a huge fillip in the last two years. She has swiftly become the favourite of musicians and ordinary listeners alike. Her work has also defined the field, for she is not aiming, as are most other singers, at a \"cabaret\" or \"night club\" audience. Stacey Kent is a committed jazz singer as were Lee Wiley and Billie Holiday before her. She also has musical qualities in common with those two. This album is made up entirely of ballads, the singer's forté, and this far-sighted idea pays off generously. Her versions of these classics are awash with ingenious invention and her inspired timing is unique. It was an imaginative idea to put the verse of \"I've Got A Crush On You\" in the middle of the song instead of at the beginning. But that sort of thinking abounds in an album that is destined to become a classic. Miss Kent has the advantage of superior accompaniment, provided by her husband Jim Tomlinson on reeds and by the Dave Newton Trio. -- Steve Voce\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 708857977529\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0708857977529\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45945727811618,"sku":"SO-CBUH-5Y7X","price":23.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51oGwZQ-ZEL.jpg?v=1783613478","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/stacey-kent-dreamsville-cd","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
