Revision as of 17:39, 6 August 2010
Elina Spiro Duni (born May 1981, Tirane, Albania) is a Swiss-Albanian jazz singer. Elina makes her first steps on stage at the age of five. Born to an artistic family (mother and grandfather writers, father actor and director, grandfather singer) she was exposed early to different types of art. Living in the Communist regime, the only opportunity for her was to sing in the "palace of pioneer" (Pallati i Pionierve). In 1992 she settles in Geneva with her mother. Between 2004 and 2008 she studies singing and composition at the Hochschule der Künste Bern, in the jazz department. During this time she develops the Elina Duni Quartet with Colin Vallon on piano, Patrice Moret on double bass and Norbert Pfammatter on drums – which represents a return to her musical sources, a combination of Balkan folk songs and jazz. In 2008 the CD Baresha, first album of Elina Duni Quartet, is released on Meta Records. This first musical departure with her quartet receives marvelous acclaim from the German and Swiss press and is followed by European tours and festivals. In February 2010 the second album of the Quartet Lume, Lume (World, World) is released on Meta Records.
Have said about her
1. Jazzthing
"At least after the fourth song, you too are defenseless and at the mercy of the magic of Elina Duni."
2. Concerto
"The four embed the old songs in jazzy surroundings, clothe them anew, so-to-speak, and reach a very intensive, penetrating game in which the impressive voice of Elina Duni radiates even more."
3.Jazzthetic
"All in all, it is shocking how natural two worlds find a way to each other, and do this far from cliched Balkan jazz."[1]
