- Angela Hagenbach
is one of America's best, fresh voices in jazz 2004. She was critically
acclaimed for her 1994 debut recording Come Fly with Me. She
released Angela Hagenbach and Musa Nova in 1995 which features
latin jazz; and her second solo recording, Feel the Magic in 1997.
A third solo recording Weaver of Dreams will be released in the
fall of 2000. "Blessed with impeccable pitch, Angela covers
her full two and one-half octave range with ease, clarity and
effortless agility" writes John Leisenring of PitchWeekly.
Her sultry contralto voice offers a rich palette of colors from
which to choose. Hagenbach moves easily within all jazz styles and
excels in her interpretations of jazz standards and latin music.
By the mid-1980’s, Hagenbach had built a successful career as a
professional model that took her to the fashion capitals of the
world.

possesses an extraordinary range, excellent phrasing and a
singular style," writes Patricia Meyers of JazzTimes. In the

Musician’ for 1999 & 2000 and James Horowitz, Director of
Jazz Aspen at Snowmass, has named her an ‘Artist of the New
Millennium’. In the spring of 2000, The Angela Hagenbach Trio
was chosen to tour as Jazz Ambassadors to the world under the
auspices of the United States Information Agency and the Kennedy
Center for the Performing Arts.
