Jazz in Germany had a voice: Inge Brandenburg. Raised in difficult circumstances, used to standing on her own two feet at an early age, suddenly celebrated as the best European jazz singer at the end of the 1950s, compared to Billie Holiday by Time magazine, carried on their hands by musicians – and ignored by the German record industry and (unsuccessfully) reduced to pop hits. A woman’s fate in the 1950s and 60s, a time when there was no place in Germany for self-confident women with trans-regional dreams, with a dramatic style of interpretation and an emancipated eroticism.
