Das Wörterbuch, The Dictionary, is a spontaneous thesaurus in improvised expression. Vocalist and composer Maria Neckam and pianist Mika Pohjola explore innovating and daring sounds from 20th century classical via avant garde to jazz genres. Included are a few of Neckam's original compositions and on-the-spot interpretations of American Songbook classics, My Funny Valentine and Like Someone in Love. As a whole, Das Wörterbuch is an experience for careful listeners, who like to think outside the box.

Great Album
author: Jim Luchsinger
There are very few artists that can use their voice - sans words - as a true instrument. Maria has this ability and her new album highlights this gift in a wonderfully mesmerizing way. Not since Bobby McFerrin have I been so impressed with the control and beauty of a vocal.
Mika Pohjola is also outstanding and reminds me of Chick Corea and Keith Jarrett letting themselves explore with Miles Davis in the late 60's.
This is a great album and truly a unique sound in modern music. Do yourself a favor and dive deep into this album.
