First, there’s the voice. Devoid of affectation or theatrics, it’s a delightful instrument, one wielded with true subtlety. Technically a dramatic mezzo, it moves with graceful ease from slightly husky sensuality to bluesy boisterousness conveying, at turns, sweet romanticism and gently aching melancholy. Its purity of tone matched by impeccable phrasing, this is a voice to be reckoned with.

Then there are the songs. On Arms Full of Roses Hayle covers pop classics “Look of Love” and “Can’t Take My Eyes off You”, but it was her own compositions, evocative of Gershwin and Cole Porter, that truly captured the imagination.
