Eliane Elias

Virtuoso on the piano, charismatic on the microphone and playfully elegant in her handling of the boundaries of individual genres; this is how Eliane Elias has triumphed on the world's stages for many years. Her voice - smoky, gentle and subtly sensual - blends with her supple piano playing to form an organic unity reminiscent of both the intimacy of Jobim and the virtuosity of Bill Evans. Her performances are technically brilliant but never overloaded and oscillate between seductive restraint and captivating passion. The perfect mix of coolness and warmth.
