Free Music Notes for Close to You
Free Music Review: Exquistic Voice
Hit: 4 Stars
Unlike some Asian singers that phonetically sing in English or do so as a second language so it's more exotica (at best) or kitschy (at worst), Susan Wong clearly sings in English as well as a native speaker/singer (or maybe even better - great ennunciation!).
That's important because she understands & offers a great interpretation on standards and old pop favorites ... backed by excellent jazz musicians, she covers the range from pop to jazz to cabaret - Her voice is absolutely exquistic and breath-taking on ballads and jazz ballads ... less so on more uptempo tracks but still excellent.
She sounds like she's musical theater trained and perhaps even with a better voice and range than Diane Krall (sounds similiar).
A great artist who hopefully will get a US label.
