Episode #25: Michelle Nicolle

David Galea Season 1 Episode 25

Michelle Nicolle is one of Australia's most respected and recognised Jazz vocalists. 
 Over the years she has developed her own unique take on classic jazz standards as well as written and recorded many award winner compositions of her own.  
 
Nicolle has worked with some of the greatest musicians on the planet including the great Wynton Marsalis, Kurt Elling and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. 

Of late she has released her 9th recording entitled ”The Bach Project" and it features her long standing quartet of Ronny Ferella on drums, Tom Lee on Bass and Geoff Hughes on Guitar.
 
 In this Podcast Michelle sits down to talk about how she became a jazz vocalist after initially starting music on the violin. She also discusses the importance of her quartet and the need for her to perform on a regular basis. We also learn how “”The Bach Project” was born. 
 
 Enjoy the music folks.
