You don´t know Tanja Siebert?
Well, maybe that is because you live on the other end of the earth...Tanja is a singer from Berlin, who just recently released her first record. It is a tribute to two of the great song writers in jazz Bob Dorough and David Frishberg.

You don´t know Bob Dorough or David Frishberg?
Bob Dorough after an almost 50-year career as a pianist, singer and composer was inducted into the jazz hall of fame in his homestate Arkansas. American audiences do not only know him as a unique jazz musician but also as the musical head of the Schoolhouse Rock series.

David Frishberg (singer, pianist and composer as well) has also played with the jazz greats (e.g. Zoot Sims, Gene Krupa) since the sixties. The London Daily Telegraph has called him the "Woody Allen of Song". It´s a special treat to see Bob Dorough and David Frishberg perform together, yet impossible to decide who is more ingenious, ironic and witty.

Without a doubt, nobody sings these songs more charmingly, humorous and pleasurably than Tanja Siebert with her refreshing quartet.

'Odd Times' refers both to the odd-meter tunes on this album and to the fact that Tanja Siebert has recently been through some odd times of her own. She went through an overwhelming mix of feelings that would make anyone think about the 'big questions' of life, perfectly reflected in songs like 'Esperanto' (Vince Mendoza), 'Uzun ince bir yoldayim' (Asik Veysel Satiroglu) and 'How do you keep the music playing?' (Michel Legrand). Tanja Siebert transformed the energy arising from her experiences in a very powerful and most creative way into music of an emotional depth, one simply can not resist. Carried by masterful arrangements and musicians who communicate on a highly sensitive level, her voice takes us to the subtle facets of emotional awareness, and makes her second album a sensual sound experience.
