Simone Kopmajer

来自奥地利的Simone Kopmajer, 于1981年出生，Simone虽然年轻，却有着成熟妩媚的嗓音，实在是得天独厚的歌手。她的双亲都是音乐老师，父亲还是音乐学校的校长，因此Simone八岁就开始接受钢琴训练，十二岁就开始在父亲领导的大乐团中担任歌手。   A cool-toned Austrian jazz vocalist, Simone Kopmajer sings in flawless English. She had classical piano lessons starting at the age of eight and at 12 began playing saxophone. She performed in a youth big band and sang regularly in her father's band as a teenager. At 17 she studied with Sheila Jordan, who encouraged her. Kopmajer also studied with Mark Murphy, Jay Clayton, and Michele Hendricks. Since earning a Masters from the University of Music and Dramatic Arts in Graz, Austria, Kopmajer has toured the Netherlands twice with the Euro Big Band, appeared at European jazz festivals, and recorded three CDs: Moonlight Serenade (for the Japanese Venus label), her best-known set Romance (for Zoho), and her privately released Taking a Chance on Love. Each CD emphasizes her own fresh versions of standards.
