2015年莎拉.沃恩爵士歌唱比賽冠軍
Produced by the Grammy-winning pianist and arranger Laurence Hobgood, Changes displays Arianna Neikrug’s gift for interpreting tunes from the Great American Songbook and more recent pop and R&B classics from the ’70s. The disc also contains two originals that reveal some of Neikrug’s journey from her hometown of Los Angeles to New York City. Changes blends the right amount of reverence for the jazz tradition with a knowing glance to modern pop and R&B classics. It will delight both jazz purists and novices without making any unwise artistic compromises as she superbly negotiates the glories of jazz’s past with a wide-eyed optimism that betrays her tender age.
