| Greek Vocalist Savina Yannatou to tour in the US following release of new CD on ECM On Thursday, March 3rd Yannatou will perform in New York City at Joe’s Pub at the Public Theater. Sumiglia, a new CD by the stellar Greek vocalist Savina Yannatou will be released on ECM on March 1st. As on her first ECM CD, Terra Nostra, Savina traverses the globe singing in 11 different languages and finding the perfect voice for each song. “Yannatou’s versatility is little short of astonishing as she adapts her voice –- sweet and childlike in some cases, harsh and masculine in others -– to songs from Greece, Sardinia, the Hebrides, the Caribbean, Sephardic Spain and beyond. A stunning album, improving with each rehearing.” --- Don Heckman reviewing “Terra Nostra” in the L.A. Times, May 2003 Just after the release, Savina will be in the U.S. with members of her working band Primavera en Salonico for a few concerts starting in NYC: March 3 New York City Joe’s Pub March 5 Chicago, IL Old Town School of Music March 6 Los Angeles, CA UCLA Live March 7 San Francisco Tangents Radio Party at the Church of St John the Evangelist March 8 Seattle, WA Triple Door March 9 St. Louis, MO University of Missouri write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Jazz News :: home page |
