Miriam Ast / Victor Gutierrez Duo
Miriam Ast & Spanish Pianist Victor Gutierrez perform a collection of original songs and innovative arrangements of jazz standards, crafted to bring out hidden meanings as part of the compilation of music from the release of their album 'Secret Songs' on 2nd July 2018.
On all of these pieces, as well as those containing lyrics, Ast/Gutierrez focus on melody and harmony, telling stories of emotional intensity and urgency.
Miriam Ast
Recently winning the Best Vocalist award at the Bucharest International Jazz Competition 2017 and reaching the semi-final of the Shure Montreux Jazz Voice Competition in the same year, Miriam Ast cites artists such as Diana Krall, Sarah Vaughn, Jamie Cullum, Norma Winstone and Kurt Elling as major influences.
Miriam is now inspiring the next generation of up and coming artists as a senior lecturer at Leeds College of Music. As part of the acclaimed London Vocal Project, she has performed at venues such as the 606 Club, Pizza Express Jazz Club, the EFG London Jazz Festival and the Cambridge International Jazz Festival.
Miriam Ast‘s vocals and Victor Gutierrez‘s piano playing enter into an intense musical dialogue that is characterised by warm and lyrical sounds, experimental and free-form passages, and virtuoso improvisations. Ast employs her voice like a true musical instrument, knowing when to caress and when to emphasise alongside her brilliant skill of scat singing.
