Reviews
«”The world is small and the heart is vast” – Yes, she has got a big heart. With lots of feeling the Swiss artist always finds the specifically suitable sound … sometimes folky, sometimes jazzy … she sings dramatically, melancholy, but always accentuates right.» (Kurier)

«The effects of this interaction between traditional and unconventional instruments, the mixture of different styles are fascinating – luscious, melancholy, exciting, magical, just like the early deceased poet’s words, interpreted by Christina Zurbrügg with wonderful intuition. And the musicians are really brilliant … » (Wiener Zeitung)

«The music shouts and sobs … It is as heterogeneous as its interpreters: Flamenco, chanson, driving jazz, mixed with folk tunes. The music sobs, shouts, creates powerful archaic pictures, and leads the listener into the turmoil of a fiesta. And nevertheless it remains dignified – just like Christina Zurbrügg … » (NZ)

«… a mélange of Paco de Lucía, Sade, Salsa und Latin American atmosphere.» (Die Alternative)

«… from chanson to flamenco and jazz … with wonderful rhythmic arrangements.» (Concerto)

«Spanish Jazz … with a combo that masters flamenco just as well as Brasilian sounds … And above it the clear voice of Christina Zurbrügg, exploring Lorca’s lyrical words with deep sensitivity for fragile moments … easiness and depth together, without theatricality.» (Rhythm blue)

«Not only for rainy summer days!» (Salzburger Nachrichten)
