REVIEWS FOR 'Elizabeth Geyer'
'In a world of same, in a world of similarity, Elizabeth's extraordinary and individual talent takes us on a different journey every time we listen. Her interpretations of these classic songs reach into my past, into my own stories, and challenge us to revisit and relive old passions and to mourn the emptiness of lost passion. She stirs our hearts and minds and then leaves, until next time we rreach for the music and the words, and of course for Elizabeth'
PETER HISLOP FM 99.3
'Elizabeth stands apart from our other artists simply because of her incredible talent and diversity as a magnificent vocalist, pianist, trumpet and flugelhorn player and last but not least as a composer...'
- Leslie Moore, AUSTRALIAN JAZZ AGENCY
'very, very special... a uniqueness you want to cling to... the best record I have heard in a long time.'
Don Burrows
Occasionally you hear something with that indefinable quality that makes for 'real' jazz. It swings, there's beautiful playing, it has warmth and most of all, it makes you feel good. Liz does all this and more - it's nice to have another great jazz CD in my collection!'
James Morrison
'Don Burrows has described Elizabeth Geyer's debut CD as possibly the finest Australian jazz recording made in the last ten years... the CD immediately catches the ear for sheer originality of sound and clean execution of popular standards... Elizabeth excels on trumpet, flugelhorn, piano and she has delightful vocals.'
Noel Crow, ALL THAT JAZZ
'Elizabeth Geyer has made every post a winner.. the talents of this instrumentalist, singer and arranger are amply displayed... containing many examples of her tasty muted trumpet and mellow flugelhorn playing. But Geyer shines just as much as a singer, showing taste and imagination as she delivers the lyrics with conviction rather than trying to rebuild the melody line. There are many excellent moments but none better than when Geyer, an accomplished pianist, accompanies herself on Joni Mitchell's Both Sides Now."
**** (four stars) WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN Review of 'Elizabeth Geyer' by Kevin Jones

This is a must have for fans of Elizabeth Geyer. While this is her first album, I bought this one last. The CD features fresh interpretations of classic jazz and pop songs and gives the listener a taste of more good things to come. Thoroughly enjoyed each track especially her take on Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" and "My Favorite Things."

This self-titled debut from Elizabeth Geyer serves as a showcase for many of the jazz standards that helped to build her repertoire and confidence...influencing her to try her own hand at songwriting for the next album. What a blessing that turned out to be! What I find amazing about this album is how original it is, despite the fact that many of the songs are like old friends to us already. It is not an easy feat to make "My Favourite Things" and "From Both Sides Now" your own, but Elizabeth's heartfelt performances do just that! They are brand new all over again. Her voice is phenomenal, ranging from sensuous whispers to heavenly highs. Other highlights are "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most," "Nadalin," and "Summertime." Any jazz fan would love this album. It presents the first steps in a career that is growing by leaps and bounds with each release. Don't miss out on the most exciting performer of the 21st Century. The sky is the limit for Elizabeth Geyer!
