Carla White
Born:
In the truest spirit of the jazz tradition, Carla White devoted her life to artistic exploration and growth. Born in Oakland, California and raised in Bellport, New York, Carla earliest musical education came from her parents' record collection, listening to "everything from Stravinsky to Sinatra" But her discovery of jazz at the age of 13 had a profound effect, setting her future in motion. "The first time you hear jazz - really hear it", she explains, "if it connects with your soul, it changes your life." After years of study in music, drama and dance that included two years at London's prestigious Webber- Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art, she embarked on a personal journey of exploration through Europe and North Africa

by AAJ Italy Staff
La voce di Carla White nella notte è qualcosa di speciale, una voce che viene da maestri indimenticati come il pianista Lennie Tristano prima ed il sassofonista tenore Warne Marsh dopo, una linea diretta con una tradizione che sui suoi dischi ha sempre trovato una degna espressione.
