Vocal Brilliance

: The performance is praised for her impeccable purity of tone, phrasing, and "horn-like" improvisational ability.

  • Recorded live in Berlin, the city that has been her home for over five decades, "Berlin 53" is an immersive, 52-minute soundscape that defies easy categorization. Scat Queen, whose real name remains a mystery, is a vocal improviser extraordinaire, capable of coaxing an astonishing range of timbres and textures from her instrument. Her voice swoops, soars, and ricochets through a maze of fragmented narratives, absurdist anecdotes, and affectingly direct expressions of emotion.

The album features a diverse range of collaborations, from electronic producers to traditional jazz musicians, showcasing her versatility and ability to thrive in any musical environment.
