Jazz - SSM0113

Sprinkled Eyes gathers impressions from Dotschy's diary, becoming new adventures here and now. There's a relaxed swinging tribute to Brazilian guitarist Toninho Horta. The serenades "In Town" and "Love's Shore"... whispering timbre, or the bluesy stroke of genius "Home - Kehre" with a reverence to Donald Fagen. With flexible and sensual phrases she gets a very female perspective out of one of her all time favourites, Sinatra's "The Moon Was Yellow". The title track is a dreamy acoustic pearl, dedicated to her uncle. On "Dschinea Du Gar / Without You" a Wes Montgomery influenced solo is cleverly woven in and reveals one more pillar of her inspirations. The metamorphosis of Django at times happens rather veiled and tongue-in-cheek, like in "Gaj Rath" and "Girls Like Me", then candidly like in her new version of "Nuages": Being relieved from the usual gypsy swing line-up and instead of that welcoming a Fender Rhodes and the "simple and truthful" (Dotschy) lyrics by Tony Bennett, it presents itself as a newly dressed masterpiece. "It is very important for me to have a personal opinion, a personal rendition to every song. After a long time I've found my own version of 'Nuages' with this arrangement", she affirms.
