Sophie Milman [IMPORT DIGIPAK]

Ms. Milman is not only not the next Diana Krall, she is in no way attempting to be. This album is nothing like any of Diana Krall's work which I also enjoy. Indeed, if you are looking for more Diana Krall then buy more Diana Krall but when you have them all? Then maybe strike out and give this a chance!

This album makes for wonderful listening. Ms. Milman's voice is very pleasant, the music is wonderful and I, for one, will certainly be buying her next effort too.

I play Ms. Milman alongside, for instance, Jane Monheit and Katie Melua and I am sure that Diana Krall too would fit in nicely. It's a good album and if you like any of the above artists I encourage you to give it a try. I did and am quite satisfied with the results.

An interesting debut effort, but does not live up to the hype. I would suggest that people looking for the next Diana Krall should buy more Diana Krall albums.

Maybe next time, Ms. Milman.

I had the pleasure of going to the CD release party for Sophie's debut CD. This young woman has everything needed to become a star - looks, personality, and lots of talent. This is a great CD, incorporating jazz, cabaret, and good old-fashioned torch songs. As well, she has the backing of some of the best jazz musicians in Canada. The more I hear it, the better it sounds.
