About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Ute Lemper is an international cabaret artist for the 21stcentury. While paying full homage to the vocal greats of the past, Lemper (born in Germany in 1963) also embraces the theatrical and pop music of the present. This collection covers many of the stages Lemper has in her career as a singer and musical actress. We get songs by Kurt Weill ("Die Moritat von Mackie Messer (Mack the Knife)," "Alabama-Song," "Nannas Lied," "Bilbao-Song," "My Ship," and "Surabaya-Johnny"), Edith Piaf favorites ("Mon Légionnaire," "Vie en Rose," and "L'Accordéoniste"), work from CABARET (" Don't Tell Mama and CHICAGO ("All That Jazz"), compositions by Michael Nyman ("Psalm'), and Berlin theater songs ("They Call Me Naughty Lola/Ich bin die fesche Lola," "I Am a Vamp!," "When the Special Girlfriend"). In other words, the standard repertoire just won't cut it for this multidimensional artist. Steve Futterman, Barnes & Noble
