Description
"But Beautiful" is the debut album from singer Charlotte Illinger.
Charlotte Illinger gained some experience on stage as a member of the NRW State Youth Jazz Orchestra, the Federal Youth Jazz Orchestra and then during the four years when she studied at the Prins Claus Conservatory in the Dutch city of Groningen. She has also won prizes at "Jugend jazzt", the Haestens and the Sparda Jazz Award, and now she is in the finals of the Master's degree program as a Jazz Improvising Artist at Folkwang University in Essen.
Her world is the music of the divas and original personalities, who created the cornerstones of modern swing-bop jazz singing in the 1950s and 1960s. Pieces such as "But Beautiful," for example, a charming song switching between major and minor cadences that Jimmy Van Heusen originally composed for the Hollywood film "Road to Rio" in 1947, and—among other things—was immortalized by Billie Holiday a decade later. Or "Old Devil Moon" by Burton Lane, composed for the Broadway show "Finian's Rainbow" in 1946 and which was discovered for jazz by the cool Miles Davis of the 50s. Others in turn come from a French composition such as Charles Trenet's "I Wish I Love", has roots in the adult pop of a Burt Bacharach such as "A House Is Not A Home" or is a product of her own song workshop ("The Way Of Time", "At Night" and "Furniture").
