Billie Holiday was the Lady of Jazz, her singing and her expressive power for all subsequent Jazzvokalisten. The WDR Big Band Cologne and the singer Cécile Verny have recorded an impressive tribute to the icon of jazz with newly conceived arrangements by Michael Abene on this CD. It contains well-known songs from the repertoire Billie Holidays, including the popular title "Lover Man" as well as the song rarity "Left Alone". (Translated from German.)
