Talking Jazzik (2002, Extraplatte Records) is Maja Jaku’s debut album and a confident introduction to her voice as a jazz vocalist deeply rooted in the tradition of the Great American Songbook. The recording showcases her natural swing feel, refined phrasing, and emotional honesty, qualities that would later become hallmarks of her artistry. Interpreting timeless standards such as “Out of This World,” “The Man I Love,” and “But Beautiful,” Maja combines technical clarity with expressive freedom, honoring the jazz lineage while asserting her own musical identity. Featuring some of Austria’s finest jazz musicians, Talking Jazzik established Maja Jaku as a compelling new voice on the European jazz scene and laid the foundation for her international career.
