Music reviews of Blood & Feathers: Live from the Caf? Carlyle
Music Review: The Quintessence of Ute
Rating: 4 Stars
Fans of the idiosyncratically talented Ute Lemper will be will be immensely entertained and those curious about her could be by this CD recorded live during a performance of her nightclub act at The Cafe Carlyle in 2005.
A few Brecht/Weil standards from her extensive repertoire as well as an eclectic selection of songs that include ones by Sting, Van Morrison, Tom Waits and a loopy rendition of Sondheim's "The Ladies Who Lunch" are commandingly performed.
These are interspersed with her witty erudite patter which along with applause, laughter and some background sounds thrillingly capture the experience of her live. The pictures in the CD booklet do justice to her visual sensuality as well.
The finale is an eloquently heartfelt tribute to Fred Ebb followed by a rousing medley where she dynamically zooms through the Kander and Ebb songbook.
Description of Blood & Feathers: Live from the Caf? Carlyle
Blood and Feathers was Ute Lemper's 2005 cabaret show at New York's Caf? Carlyle. It's a partial survey of her career, nodding to, among other things, her affinity with Kurt Weill ("Pirate Jenny") and her Sally Bowles role in (a Cabaret medley). She incorporates more Weill ("Bilbao Song," "Moon Over Alabama") into a "Moon Medley" that includes Van Morrison's "Moon Dance," Sting's "Moon Over Bourbon Street," Joni Mitchell's "Moon at the Window," the standard "It's Only a Paper Moon," and Tom Waits's "Grapefruit Moon." Lemper also tosses in Sondheim's "The Ladies Who Lunch" and a tribute to fellow German chanteuses Marlene Dietrich and Edith Piaf, and even delivers some of her patter in German and French. To call it an eclectic mix would be an understatement, and she's brash, she's bold, and she leaves it all out there--not your normal honey-voiced cabaret singer. But that also means Blood and Feathers isn't like the last hundred smooth, generic-sounding cabaret recordings you've heard. That's definitely a good thing. --David HoriuchiCabaret CDs
