Nina Kristofferson describes how, "Billie's unusual timbre tells a story like no other jazz singer. Her phrasing and timing is heartfelt as she takes you on a journey which encapsulates her many influences including prostitution, the cops, doing time and the effects drugs had on her life. Her relationship with men, her work, the abuse she suffered by those who took advantage of her. What drove her and finally killed her. Nina Kristofferson Sings Billie Holiday is a very intimate and special concert taken from this musical play's brilliant cocktail of songs and stories from Billie Holiday's life, featuring some of her greatest hits: God Bless The Child, Lover Man, Strange Fruit, Don't Explain, All of me and many more.
