Wiltrud Weber – Blue and Deep

“A Soprano in the House”
Classically-trained, Berlin-based soprano Wiltrud Weber who successfully bridges her operatic background with a fresh style and Jephté Guillaume, one of the most talented producers and percussionists of Haiti, known for his timeless productions, are uniting musical worlds in the upcoming album “Blue and Deep”: Afro-haitian and Brasilian rhythms meet Classic, Electronic, Jazz and Folk!

Their first single “Blue and Deep” almost immediately found heavy rotation at the 2008 Winter Music Conference in Miami and was celebrated as “uplifting and innovative masterpiece” by SpiritOfHouse.com. It set fire to international dance floors, was featured on BBC Radio London and CBS Radio Canada and has been called “the single greatest blend of Europe and Haiti in dance music history.” “This record transcends any ethnic pinpoint or boundary… featuring Ms. Wiltrud Weber’s evocative, seducing vocal, which weaves in and out of the awe-inspiring, organic production Jephté Guillaume is so well known for.” (Dope Jams, Brooklyn, New York).

After the second visionary club single “Déjà Vu” in 2010 “… bursting forth with the beautifully haunting vocal ranges of Wiltrud Weber’s unique gift”, the much-anticipated album “Blue and Deep” will be released in September 2011!

The electrifying collaboration of Wiltrud Weber and Jephté Guillaume breaks down many musical walls with its spirited, revolutionary and unexpected approach. The fusion of multi-linguistic, sensual opera-tinged singing and wild, Afro-Haitian instrumentation and production is sure to grab the ear of music lovers and ignite intense pleasure!

“Joyfully rhythmic and so… luscious! A harmonious combination of Wiltrud Weber’s Euro classical lyricism and Jephté Guillaume’s deep rooted Haitian Vodou and solid trance background. The songs are haunting and rootsy at the same time with friendly unconscious winks at Klaus Nomi and Grace Jones.”
Dan Behrman (Producer / Host, CBS Radio, Canada) about the album “Blue and Deep”

“The new voice – one can only dream of what is to come next from her!“ Joaquin Joe Claussell (Sacred Rhythm Music / Body&Soul, New York)
