Barb Jungr enthrals audiences with unique cabarets synthesising chanson, jazz, blues, storytelling, musical theatre and improvisations. Following last year's collection of Bob Dylan songs, Barb Jungr and her musicians return to the Almeida with her much requested chansons repertoire including the specially commissioned translations that have brought Jungr two New York Awards and established her career in the UK. The concert will also include material by Jacques Brel and Leo Ferre as well as some of the British and American chansons writers including Richard Thompson, Elvis Costello and Jungr’s great love Bob Dylan. Jungr is the recipient of the 2008 New York Nightlife Award for 'Outstanding Cabaret Singer' and the 2003 New York Backstage Award for 'Best International Artist'. She has released 6 albums for Linn Records Label, including this year's Just Like A Woman - Hymn To Nina (featuring the repertoire of Nina Simone) which has again brought her critical acclaim and rave reviews. www.barbjungr.co.uk Barb Jungr - No Regrets website.
