Happy birthday Dame Cleo!
She was born in Southall, Middlesex on 28 October 1927, and she is still giving concerts. Her soulful singing is as moving as her scat singing is thrilling, with a celebrated four-octave range which is demonstrated in this video from 30 years ago: On a Clear Day You Can See Forever.
Fabulous!
It’s technical, yet it is a Voice…a Person…and One who shares, once upon an afternoon.…Blessings, Cleo! Listen ALL birds…they sing. !
