“Throughout my life, since I was very young, dancing has accompanied me everywhere, and I’ve learned a number of different styles: ballroom, Latin, Argentinian tango and more. I’ve always felt inspired by the physical and internal movement in dancing – whether with a partner or alone – and for me it represents another way of expressing myself. While researching potential repertoire for this album I found myself drawn to songs from a number of very different countries and peoples, all with strong dance elements – sometimes in the words, but invariably in the music. And movement here has a double meaning for me: these songs move me emotionally, and they contain the steps and rhythms of dance – many greatly varied kinds of dance – in their expressions of feeling and character. To me those two meanings interlink as one: they are the emotional and physical in unison – a single entity. It’s hard to imagine music without dance, or dance without music…“ ​​

Said vaults effortlessly across stylistic boundaries, often via dazzling arrangements by her collaborator Tim Allhoff. And that Whitney Houston track? Even diehard sceptics will be moved by this vulnerable rendition in a translucent arrangement. — BBC Music Magazine, October 2022, 4 out of 5 stars (Performance) / 5 out of 5 stars (Recording)
