ELAINE DELMAR

Elaine is a musical icon as she journeys through the works of Gershwin, Porter and beyond, transfixing audiences around the world with her sophisticated vocally balanced agility. She has made numerous radio and television broadcasts and concerts singing with small groups, big bands and symphony orchestras around the world, starring with Michel Legrand, Stephane Grappelli, Andy Williams, Benny Carter and Herb Ellis to mention but a few. Equally at home in a concert hall, night club or theatre, Elaine thrives on communicating with her audience. In 2006, Elaine was nominated for the Radio 2 ‘Artist of the Year’ in the BBC Jazz Awards.

ELAINE DELMAR RECEIVES JAZZ AWARD!

In 2013 Elaine receives the APPJAC SPECIAL AWARD FOR JAZZ from Michael Connarly MP at the 2013 Parliamentary Jazz Awards at the House of Commons.

“Fashions may change but quality is timeless which explains how the stylish Elaine Delmar has survived the passage of so many vocal trends over the years. A favourite with both Jazz and Cabaret audiences, she continues to set the standard for sophisticated rich-toned interpretations of the Great American Songbook” (London Evening Standard)

“Among the multitude of good jazz singers in Britain today, there is not one who can surpass Elaine Delmar. Few understand the repertoire as well as well or express it with such dynamic simplicity. When she sings a song as plainly as she can, it still emerges gently swinging, imbued with the spirit of jazz. She builds each performance with sure- footed musicianship” Sunday Observer

“One of the ageless, evergreen singing stars that we have … as beautiful and talented as ever… she’s marvellous!”
-Michael Parkinson, BBC Radio 2

“Truly defines the word class …”
-Humphrey Lyttelton, BBC Radio 2
