“Young kids always ask me what my style is derived from, how it evolved, and everything else. What can I tell them? If you find a tune and it’s got something to do with you, you don’t have to evolve anything. You just feel it, and when you sing it other people can feel something too.” 1

LADY DAY… Behind the evocation of the nickname bequeathed to Billie Holiday by her friend Lester Young lurks a hint of legend. Born in Baltimore in 1915, Billie Holiday led a chaotic existence, her private life sometimes taking a dramatic turn. Nevertheless, over the 44 years of her life, this African-American woman forged an extraordinary career for herself, blazing a unique and lasting trail in the world of jazz and beyond.

More than any other vocalist, Billie Holiday doesn’t just sing, she literally lives the songs she sings. “Her art rests much more on a hand-to-hand struggle with text and melody, on a total investment in what becomes an intense moment of a gigantic, moving and authentic drama: her own. In other words, beyond the vocal performance, and its fading, in its slips, remains—and even amplifies—the emotional power, intact, almost heightened by the reality of hardship and suffering.” 2

Lady Day’s career is of course not limited to her recordings, official or otherwise, but today they are the only truly living testimony to her art…
