Spell Sensuous

Every music genre is characterized by a unique style and specific instrumentation. For French Canadian guitarist & jazz vocalist Chantal Chamberland her sensuous, smoky voice is her trademark instrument. With some of Chamberland’s personal musical influences as her canvas, this Quebec born chanteuse delivers knockout performances that are as unforgettable as the singer herself. With 6 contemporary jazz releases, and her highly anticipated 7th release, "Temptation", Chantal’s star shines brightly on an international stage.

Istanbul has a deep, layered history. From its beginnings as a fishing village to one of the pillars of the Roman world. The final stop on the Silk Road. The centre of the Ottoman Empire as the Turks spread their huge net across the Middle East. Across the centuries the city drew in cultures and blended them. Growing up there, singer-songwriter Gaye Su Akyol breathed all that in every day, along with her family’s ancient roots in Anatolia. Those rich traditions combine to form part of the sound she’s developed on her album Hologram Ĭmparatorluğu (Hologram Empire), where sultry Turkish melodies twine around spiky, twanging guitars and insistent rhythms.

Several Eloquence releases have celebrated the pellucid timbre and vivid characterisationof the British soprano Jennifer Vyvyan. 'A treasury to treasure' was the BBC Music Magazine's verdict on 'Songs of England' (4825045), a L'OiseauLyre recital from 1953. Four years later she took part in the first complete recording of Purcell's masque 'The Fairy Queen' (reissued as 4827449), where again her shapely phrasing and sharply etched tone-painting drew critical praise. As a founding member of the English Opera Group, Vyvyan had by then become a favouritesoprano for Benjamin Britten, who created a string of roles for her: 'Queen of Aldeburgh', she was called by her colleague, the baritone Thomas Hemsley.
