An energetic collection of famous tracks like Take the ‘A’ Train and Come fly with me in surprising arrangements and with tasteful specials. But also the less famous songs hit the spot, like Voyage from Kenny Barron or the Swedish folk song Dear old Stockholm, both with lyrics by Judith. A varied and refreshing show that pays homage to the true jazz classics.  

REVIEWS
“Great jazz. Classical standards. Played sophisticated yet vitruoso. ”
Maxazine

 “Judith Nijland lifts the songs above the cliche. With her somewhat horse alto she dusts old familiar songs and makes them shine again”
Jazzflits

 “Judith gives the album character with her attractive voice and timing”
Bob van Eekhout, jazz reviewer
