Pernilla Aidt

Pernilla Aidt is Danish, and singing has been her livelihood since she was 19. But only few of her fellow countrymen have had the pleasure of hearing her voice, because her singing career has blossomed in France. She has been singing a Broadway repertoire in casinos, in castles and the big hotels along the French Riviera ? and jazz in many jazz-bars and jazz-cellars in Paris such as Le B?teau-Ivre og New Morning, and at the jazz-festivals of Nice and Printemps de Bourges in Paris.

In 1998 she released an album with jazz standards and was elected ?Jazz Artist of the Year? by the French music shop chain FNAC.

Pernilla Aidt is presently employed as a teacher in jazz singing at the Conservatoire Nationale de Region in Toulon. She has a background as a conservatory-educated classical singer, and six years ago she finished a four-year education at Berklee College of Music in the US, where she immersed herself in the universe of jazz.

When she started writing music herself, however, she created neither classical nor jazz, but something right in the middle ? a mixture of several styles, which might best be described as an ?ambient soundtrack'.
