Anna Margolina

One Endless Night

Digital / CD · XJM23003 · 44:02

On her debut album "One Endless Night," Berlin-based vocalist Anna Margolina turns her immigration story from Minsk to Berlin into contemporary vocal jazz. Its eight songs circle around abandonment, loneliness and the search for identity, from "Mirror of Me" through "Motherless Child" to "Chaos and I." All were composed, arranged and written by Conor Cantrell, who frames Margolina's voice with traces of folk, soul and electronic colour. She is joined by Kenneth Berkel (piano), Lisa Buchholz (flugelhorn), Hendrik Nehls (bass) and David Guy (drums), while Marian Hafenstein handled recording, mixing and mastering and co-produced the record with the singer. Rather than literal reportage, the result is a nocturnal, introspective sound world in which Margolina's warm, agile voice forms the emotional centre. "One Endless Night" was released in 2023 on XJAZZ! Music.

In her new album “Song Of A Girl” jazz singer Anna Margolina turns poetry into music. She has rediscovered lyricist Anna Margolin (1887-1952) with whom she not only shares her name, but also the country of origin. A broad, melodic and contemporary view on jazz, embracing elements of folk, soul and electronic.

Anna Margolina was born in Minsk into a family of musicians and artists. She has lived in Berlin since 1992, received her first singing lessons at the age of 16. Her own ensemble emerged in 2015 with which she has been performing sold-out concerts ever since. As a guest soloist, Anna toured with the Andrej Hermlin Swing Dance Orchestra for a year and sang 1930s hits at the Konzerthaus Dortmund, Philharmonie Berlin, Laeiszhalle Hamburg, Nikolaisaal Potsdam, and Konzerthaus am Gendarmenmarkt. In her own programs, she increasingly focuses on contemporary sounds. At the end of the pandemic, the band toured 15 cities and Anna produced a jazz show on YouTube (OFSN) with pianist Kenneth Berkel. In her debut album “One Endless Night” (2023 XJAZZ! Music), the singer tells the moving story of her emigration from Minsk to Berlin. Her second studio album “Song Of A Girl” (2026 XJAZZ! Music) is dedicated to a poetess. The quartet had been invited to perform at renowned venues, including the Black Forest Festival, Laeiszhalle Hamburg, ZigZag Jazzclub, Jewish-Israeli Culture Days Erfurt, The Orange Room by Jazzradio Berlin, Jazzfestival Lech in Austria, and many more. "Considering the band's sound, one could easily have dreamed oneself into a bygone era of jazz: to a New York club lounge, while people dance and drink cocktails. You could almost wait for Frank Sinatra to mingle with the audience with a glass of whiskey and the singer to lie down on the piano." – Jazz Radio Berlin
