Description
Acclaimed American jazz vocalist Stacey Kent returns with her highly anticipated studio album, A Time For Love. Following the massive success of her chart-topping French jazz release Summer Me, Winter Me, Kent delivers an intimate collection that is both spare and impossibly lush. Backed by the virtuosic musical precision of pianist Art Hirahara and her long-time collaborator, saxophonist, and husband Jim Tomlinson, this album offers an elegant, unadorned vocal approach that transcends borders.
Pressing on a high-fidelity 12" vinyl format, it captures the warm, soothing low-register ballads and delicate phrasing that have earned Kent over one billion global streams.
Features beautifully arranged interpretations of timeless standards, chanson, and bossa nova, including Leonard Bernstein's "Lucky To Be Me" and Brian Wilson's "God Only Knows". Lovingly recorded and mixed by Jim Tomlinson at their private home studio in Virginia for an unmatched, intimate sonic experience.
