Du skal have Flash Player for at kunne se dette.
Besides performing own originals, Miriam respectfully sings and interprets songs of the Great Ladies in Jazz, Blues and Soul and lets one feel the words and experience the meaning of the songs.
 
Close your eyes, listen and feel... The song is performed just for you!  
Miriam is blessed with an outstanding voice and musicality, and is with selec- ted musicians performing  soulful jazz / blues and gospel.
 
She believes that songs performed by "the Grand Ladies" through the "daring twenties to the liberal sixties" is worth not to be forgotten, and she is giving the songs "new life" interpreting the stories and allowing the emotions and feelings shine through.
Just listening to "Summertime" and feel the desperation of the poor nanny,  to "Crazy" and get the feeling of a woman in love with a "not so loyal man", or the temptation of the neglected  wife in "Almost Persuaded"...
 
She is strongly inspired by Ma Rainey, Bessie Smith, Billie Holliday, Etta James, Dinah Washington and Aretha Franklin, Miriam Makeba, just to name a few, but still in the search for the "almost forgotten" songs  telling a story and emotions, we can still relate to today....
You can experience Miriam performing songs from the "grand ladies" with  her own band -
 
"Her Danish Friends" ;
 
 or with a pianist, a trio or quartet assembled for the occasion.
 
You can also meet Miriam as a guest vocalist with these great bands ......
