Description:
This remarkable CD edition "Collection 1930-1962" presents an extensive overview of Marlene Dietrich's vocal artistry across three decisive decades of the 20th century. From her early recordings in the 1930s through the post-war years up to the early 1960s, the selection captures the evolution of her unique, smoky timbre and her unmistakable blend of elegance, irony and emotional understatement. Here you will find classics from the cabaret and chanson tradition, film-related songs and repertoire that reflects both Berlin and Parisian nightlife, as well as Dietrich's later international stage career. The compilation highlights her talent for transforming songs into intimate monologues, always carried by her characteristic mix of cool distance and deep feeling. Whether in German, English or French titles, the tracks on this CD trace the image of a cosmopolitan icon who left a lasting mark on popular music and entertainment culture.
Marlene Dietrich, born in Berlin, became world-famous with her role in "The Blue Angel" and the associated song "Falling in Love Again (Can't Help It)", which became one of her lifelong signature numbers. In Hollywood she developed into one of the great stars of the 1930s and 1940s, working with leading directors and composers, and later reinvented herself as an internationally celebrated singer on concert stages around the world. Her distinctive voice, her consistently independent artistic choices and her clear political stance against National Socialism made her an enduring cultural figure far beyond film. The recordings on "Collection 1930-1962" document this unique path and bring together a wealth of material that will appeal to lovers of film history, chanson and classic vocal jazz-tinged repertoire alike.
