Ute Lemper Channels Dietrich On 'Rendezvous With Marlene'
It takes a kind of fearlessness to address the mythical talent of superstar Marlene Dietrich. Dietrich’s stardom is legendary; her story a picaresque of adventure, fantasy, imagination, and coveted reality. Yet, if anyone can begin to touch Dietrich’s transcendent nature, to tell her story, it would have to be jny: Berlin-born, New York-based Ute Lemper. Lemper, ...

by Dan Bilawsky
German-born, New York-based pianist Vana Gierig was making memorable music long before Making Memories came into existence.

Andrea Fultz: The German Projekt German Songs from the Twenties and Thirties
by Andrew Velez
Since its origins in the turbulent 1920s-'30s, and with the occasional exception of a vocalist-cum-chanteuse like Ute Lemper, the authoritative renditions by Marlene Dietrich and Lotte Lenya have pretty much held title to this music, which might be called the Great German Songbook. Which makes it all the more impressive that Munich-born Andrea Fultz, who has ...
