Iskre - Mia Žnidarič & RTV Big Band conducted by: Tadej Tomšič

Mia's voice is magical. Her love for Dinah Washington, Ella Fitzgerald and Nancy Wilson shines through with every breath. Teasing, inviting, brooding, playful, swinging, her voice sparkles over the band and infects the listener with a panorama of emotions: from light whimsy to dark melancholy to the joyous euphoria of life.

A word about the language: Mia usually performs in both English and her native tongue. To non-speakers, the Slovene text sounds beautifully foreign to our ears and gives Mias voice an even deeper dimension: a new set of sounds takes our experience of music and jazz to another level.

Iskre is the Slovene word for "Sparkles"

text by Svetlana Makarovic, music and arrangement by Steve Klink.

Live radio for the European Broadcast Union (EBU) broadcast on the national radios of Norway, Sweden, Finland, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, Portugal, Czech Republic, Croatia, Austria, Spain, Latvia, Greece and Slovenia.

This song appears on Mia's CD "Iskre" and her big band CD "Preblizu predaleč" (more info at www.MiaZnidaric.eu)
