‘Round Midnight – from the CD “Night Session” by Louise Howlett & Albert Combrink

2010-10-03T21:12:45+02:00

Louise and Albert instantly responded to this song, where a rocky love affair seems to be suspended in a timeless haze. Their interpretation shifts into focus as a camera panning from the vast New York skyline to a sneak-view through an apartment window. The “after hours” feel of this “dark Ballad” is irresistible to performers, making “’Round Midnight” the most recorded jazz standard in history.

“Black Coffee” – Adding Caffeine to a classic song on the CD “Night Sessions”

2010-09-16T09:14:13+02:00

Adding more Caffeine to this "Black Coffee": In their album “Night Sessions” Louise Howlett and Albert Combrink explore the journey of love with all its ups and downs. “Black Coffee” by (Sonny Burke with lyrics by Paul Webster) is the epitome of the torch songs expressing the pain of suffering the “blues” after a bitter disappointment in love. Their interpretation brings out an element of anger and defiance that is suggested by the harmonies of this atmospheric gem.
