Kabarett / Jean Stilwell, Robert, Kortgaard, et, al - CBC Records - CBC 1162 -

The charismatic mezzo-soprano, Jean Stilwell, is one of Canada's most versatile artists - one who has that rare ability to light up any stage on which she performs. In addition to her extensive recital, concert and operatic performances, Stilwell has also garnered rare reviews for her smoldering approach to cabaret music, including those made famous by Edith Piaf, Marlene Dietrich, Zara Leander and Lotte Lenya.
