Amazing. Inventive. Cecile McLorin Salvant is only 24 but already a convincing voice in modern jazz. She won the Monk Vocal Competition at 20 and released a Grammy-nominated recording (Woman Child) last year. You can hear the entire history of jazz singing, from Bessie Smith to Betty Carter, in her unique interpretations and original songs.
