O’s Notes: Lauren is blessed with a beautiful, seductive voice (multilingual) that she spreads across thirteen classics and a few originals. The sound is exotic on “To Wisdom The Prize” and “Better Days” with guest vocalist Terri Lyne Carrington, Gordon Louis (sax) Nick Tannura (g) and Josh Evans (t) also make notable contributions. Bassist Eric Wheeler provides a solid foundation for “Let Me Love You” with Louis and Evans again making a splash along with pianist Sullivan Fortner.“çrmane“is a warm resonant session.
