Description:
The Gate is the Ellings follow up to his Grammy Winning Dedicated to You, many naming it his strongest of albums and perhaps the finest of his career. Produced by Don Was (Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt, Bob Dylan), The Gate is a musical collection in which boundaries cease to exist, a sensibility enhanced by Was who had expressed the desire to work with Elling an opportunity which Elling found irresistible.
Kurt Elling is among the world's foremost jazz vocalists. He has been named "Male Singer of the Year" by the Jazz Journalists Association on half a dozen occasions in the past ten years, and during the same interval has been the perennial winner of the DownBeat Critics Poll. He is also a Grammy winner (as mentioned with Dedicated to You), and every record he has made has been Grammy nominated.
Elling has toured Australia recently, with his continual journeys to our shores helping to create a solid fanbase of jazz lovers who can't get enough of his truly divine voice. Elling's rich baritone spans four octaves and features both astonishing technical mastery and emotional depth. His command of rhythm, texture, phrasing, and dynamics is more like a virtuoso jazz instrumentalist than a vocalist. His repertoire includes original compositions and modern interpretations of standards, all of which are springboards for inspired improvisation, scatting and spoken word.
