I know of no other jazz singer with quite the stylistic breadth – not to mention tireless enthusiasm – of Norway’s Karin Krog. From ragtime to the avant garde, big band to solo voice with electronics, she approaches them all with the same devotion and skill. This box of six CDs contains her own choice from recordings she made between 1967 and now. The mere list of names appearing with her is mind-boggling, from all-time giants such as Dexter Gordon and Clark Terry to contemporaries like Britain’s John Surman and Hamburg’s mighty NDR Bigband. In all that time, Krog’s voice has changed only to sound warmer and more supple."
