  • Description

    The album concept 'Ballin Sings Berlin' is a logical conclusion of a series of tribute concert Yaala Ballin produced a while ago entitled "His Name Was Israel Baline". The idea started with Yaala's research into possible ancestral connection with Irving Berlin (born Israel Baline). With or without connection she ended up with the superb recital of gems by arguably the greatest American songwriter.

    Israli-born Yaala was classically trained but grew more attracted to jazz later on and studied with Sheila Jordan. Since her move to New York in 2004 Yaala has developed herself into one of the remarkably original singers on the NY scene. Yaala was featured on 'The Music of Duke Jordan' (SCCD31787) with the Chris Byars Septet.

    Personnel: Yaala Ballin (vocal), Michael Kanan (piano), Chris Flory (guitar), Ari Roland (bass)
