Sing Antonio's Song
The queen of jazz vocals meets Japanese classics.
Released in 1980, this album is an ambitious work in which she sings jazz arrangements of Japanese songs. The melancholy of the original songs is beautifully blended with the expressive power of jazz vocals, bridging the musical cultures of Japan and the United States. Helen Merrill's deep voice breathes new life into the Japanese lyrics, demonstrating the affinity between jazz and Japanese pop music.
