简介
Her dreamy powerful voice, like a silvery fresh-water spring, flows effortlessly over the sophisticated fun material from a chacha treatment of the classical aria "Tre Giorni Son Che Nina" to the daringly simple accappella performance of her early mentor, Marvin Hamlisch's, "Looking Through the Eyes of Love", the arrangements and performance are simply world class. "There aren't many singers who can make the transition from musical theatre to the intimate nightclub scene as easily and as beautifully as Nina. Listen closely and you'll hear what I mean-Nina Knows!" Marilyn Maye "Ever since her last Broadway show, "Bye Bye Birdie", closed; Nina has been cookin' up something new. It began when Marilyn Maye and Don Rebic met Nina in the studio to play through her book of favorite songs. Last fall, dear friend and fellow musician, Nick Cerrato, booked Nina and me for a gig. It was a perfect opportunity to feature Nina and her "new book" of songs. We called Don to be our MusicalDirector/pianist and Jeff Ganz to play the bass. In spite of us all being old friends, this was the first time we'd all played together. It turned out that the gig took place three days after my dad passed away and less than 24 hours before hurricane Sandy hit. Nobody cancelled!! The music we made that day was astonishingly good. We had serious chemistry and commitment. Nick said,"You have to keep doing this!" Well, we did, and asked Sean Harkness to join us on the way. Nina has to sing. It's programmed in her DNA. It's like breathing to her. She has a gift of an incredible voice. I'm so glad she is sharing it with us all on this CD. Here she is..."With A Song"...or fifteen of 'em!" Ray Marchica
