Description
In 1990 the internationally renowned NDR radio orchestra (now the NDR Radiophilharmonie) invited the peerless singer and lyricist Norma Winstone MBE to collaborate on a broadcast session. She immediately turned to pianist and arranger Steve Gray and working with the superb radio band they created together an unforgettable, beautiful suite of songs including classic repertoire and modern gems featuring Norma's own lyrics.
Released for the very first time on limited edition vinyl, CD and digital this is a rare opportunity to hear one of our greatest jazz singers backed by a full orchestra.
