An Innocent Night At Zurich, the latest album by Cissandra Durkin, is a refreshing take on contemporary jazz. The album features a mix of original compositions and covers, all of which are performed with impeccable musicianship and a deep sense of emotional resonance.
Durkin's voice is the highlight of the album, with her warm, sultry tone perfectly suited to the intimate and introspective nature of the songs. Whether she's crooning through the ballad "Goodnight My Love" or delivering a playful rendition of "Cheek to Cheek," Durkin's vocals are consistently engaging and emotive.
The backing band on An Innocent Night At Zurich is also top-notch, with each member contributing their own unique flair to the arrangements. From the nimble guitar work on "Waltz for Debby" to the driving rhythm section on "Take the A Train," the musicianship on display here is truly impressive.
