Billie Holiday

Description:

Her masterpiece from the 1950s, the 1958 release Songs For Distingue Lovers, is now available in the Acoustic Sounds series. There is no denying that Billie Holiday's singing changed in her later years. Her voice darkened and shifted to a lower register. And while the expressive richness of her voice elevated it to an essential quality, a kind of high level of speech, this work has also deepened and become more lustrous over time.
