 LORIN SALVANT\, is a composer\, singer\, and visual artist. The Late Jessy
 e Norman described Salvant as “a unique voice supported by an intelligen
 ce and full-fledged musicality\, which light up every note she sings.” S
 alvant has developed a passion for storytelling and finding the connection
 s between vaudeville\, blues\, folk traditions from around the world\, the
 ater\, jazz\, and baroque music. Salvant is an eclectic curator\, unearthi
 ng rarely recorded\, forgotten songs with strong narratives\, interesting 
 power dynamics\, unexpected twists\, and humor. Salvant won the Thelonius 
 Monk competition in 2010. She has received Grammy Awards for Best Jazz Voc
 al Album for three consecutive albums\, “The Window\,” “Dreams and D
 aggers\,” and “For One To Love\,” and was nominated for the award in
  2014 for her album “WomanChild.” In 2020\, Salvant received the MacAr
 thur fellowship and the Doris Duke Artist Award. “Ghost Song” \, Salva
 nt’s debut for Nonesuch Records\, was released in March 2022 to critical
  acclaim\, and has gone on to receive two Grammy Nominations.   Salvant’
 s latest work\, Ogresse\, is a musical fable in the form of a cantata that
  blends genres (folk\, baroque\, jazz\, country). Salvant wrote the story\
 , lyrics\, and music. It is arranged by Darcy James Argue for a thirteen-p
 iece orchestra of multi-instrumentalists. Ogresse\, both a biomythography 
 and an homage to the Erzulie (as painted by Gerard Fortune) a d Sara Baart
 man\, explores fetishism\, hunger\, diaspora\, cycles of appropriation\, l
 ies\, othering\, and ecology. It is in development to become an animated f
 eature-length film\, which Salvant will direct.                   Explore
