CHARLETTE SHULAMIT OTTOLENGHI
Charlette’s unique voice expresses the intimate significance of the text and the music by using a high register with a particularly meditative tone, using a technique “a mezza voce”. Charlette sings with a subtle, simple, caressing and pervasive musical grace, which is one of the most striking traits of the Italian and particularly Roman jewish musical tradition.

A fascinating album that enlightens a little known, beautiful Italian Jewish music tradition and includes a selection of hymns and prayers in Hebrew. The modern arrangements of these songs, originally sang without musical accompaniment, introduce elements of different musical genres ranging from classical through jazz to popular music and creating a very special and seducing "sound-appeal".
