Fay Claassen - Luck Child (2017)

'Luck Child' by Dutch jazz singer Fay Claassen, is an ode to youth and beauty, with a mix of old and new songs. Mostly those she has been singing for many years but never recorded before. Famous and beloved songs by the likes of Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Burt Bacharach and Ennio Morricone are presented alongside new compositions by Paul Heller. Claassen has recorded her own albums together with many international jazz stars, such as Mike Stern, Kenny Werner and Toots Thielemans. She was invited as a soloist for recordings by the WDR Big Band, Bob Brookmeyers New Art Orchestra, the Millennium Jazz Orchestra and the Danish Radio Big Band. She has also worked with well-known conductors and arrangers such as Jim Mc Neely, Vince Mendoza and Michael Abene. Fay was awarded with The Golden Record for her double album 'Two Portraits of Chet Baker'.

Dutch singer Fay Claassen has taken her sweet time releasing a follow-up to her 2010 big band release, Sing (Challenge). Her most recent recordings before sing include Red, Hot & Blue: The Music of Cole Porter (Challenge, 2009), and the uniformly excellent Two Portraits Of Chet Baker (Munich, 2006), all uniquely their own works of art.

On Luck Child, Claassen steps out of the standard's-heavy arena, devoting her attention to more contemporary fare like the funky blues of Paul Simon's "One Trick Pony" and an airy take on the Beatles' "Blackbird." The singer takes on more modern jazz compositions like Fred Hersch's "Song of Life," with lyrics by Norma Winstone and Cedar Walton's "When Love is New," lyrics by John and Paula Hackett. Kenny Wheeler's "Fay," dedicated to the singer provides a breezy melody for Claassen's wordless singing.

Pianist Olaf Polziehn's is graceful and well-suited to Claassen's light touch. The American traditional "Oh Shenandoah," is pleasantly lit by the singer's clear alto, cushioned on Polziehn sparse support. Claassen updates "God Bless the Child" with a bit of jaunt in its strut. She closes the disc with a wordlessly dreamy "Cinema Paradiso" that beautifully captures this fine singer in full flight.
