“All the buzz surrounding new jazz sensation Cecile McLorin Salvant is more than justified. At 26, she is redefining modern jazz with her extraordinary experimental arrangements and phrasing.

Modulating frequently within a tune, she easily shifts between a childlike sing-song, a husky growl and a mature jazz vocal reminiscent of her predecessors Vaughan and Fitzgerald.

” — Cabaret Scenes

“She sings clearly, with her full pitch range, from a pronounced low end to full and distinct high notes, used sparingly — like the one I heard a few weeks ago at Dizzy’s Club Coca-Cola on the last word of ‘What a Little Moonlight Can Do,’ the spire in a magnificent set. Her voice clamps into each song, performing careful variations on pitch, stretching words but generally not scatting; her face conveys meaning, representing sorrow or serenity like a silent-movie actor.

She also presents a lot of jazz history, and other things…” — The New York Times
