Search - Helen Schneider :: Dream a Little Dream (Dig)

Helen Schneider, once a "Rock `n' Roll Gypsy" and then the star of Cabaret alongside Hildegard Knef, is a passionate actress and singer with one of the most remarkable voices of our time. On her new album, Schneider presents herself as a dreamer and an object of dreams at the same time. With Dream a Little Dream, the 2006 DIVA Award winner and her producers Till Brönner and Christian von Kaphengst devote themselves to an intimate selection of classic jazz standards from the Great American Songbook. "She's a major talent, with astonishing vocal range, a full palette of emotional color, and superior acting technique. Joy, despair, triumph, loss, love, and pain--the big emotions are given memorable musical expression in this act by a singer who deserves and will surely get a wider public." -- Variety
