“Although Acuña did not come to the United States until she was in her
early 20s, she has mastered the essential elements of jazz with startling
effectiveness.”
“Acuña’s voice is an instrument of wonder…[she] is a natural, blessed
with a gorgeous, honey-rich sound and an unerring sense of phrasing”
- Los Angeles Times
“Acuña transforms classics into something provocative and unexpected”
- New York Daily News
“The voice of an angel. That’s the best way to describe the singing of
Claudia Acuña. The Chilean-born jazz songstress has an earnest, emotive tone
that enhances but never overpowers a tune. She solely served the song. For a
composer, such selflessness must surely be heaven-sent.”
- Newsday
“Her voice, capable of producing sultry chest tones and silvery
highs, was showcased in a variety of English-Spanish contexts,
including some that consistently revealed her spot-on intonation and
delightful harmonic finesse.”
