Caroline Nin's voice is penetrating, sometime un-welcomed because it is so truthful, and men, sometimes hate to confront truth...

 

In this context, Caroline Nin becomes unique and sublime. She sings life and on stage she becomes larger than life. Her voice is a tempest, a sweet murmur trying to reveal alarming secrets which might force you to rethink your priorities...her voice is penetrating, sometime un-welcomed because it is so truthful, and we humans, sometimes we hate to confront truth, because truth hurts...."Diva" magazine wrote: "she has the appearance of a 1940's movie goddess...this woman is the epitome of style and class'.

Parisian Caroline Nin sings in perfect English, French and German, about a world where love is for sale, with songs by Brel, Weill, Piaf, Kander and Ebb.
