Italian-born violinist and singer Ludovica Burtone has performed with Sigur Rós and Jon Batiste, and was also part of an orchestra tribute to the Notorious B.I.G. at Lincoln Center. On Migration Tales, she leads a diverse N.Y.C.-based sextet in a tribute to the city's immigrant women. The success of the energetic and mostly melodic album hinges on Burtone's considerable ability to write music that's fresh, emotionally engaging, and clearly inspiring to the ensemble. "The Name" builds on Burtone's singing and violin playing. Tenor saxophonist Julieta Eugenio, a native of Argentina, enters with a warm tone and natural sense of melody, while South Korean Jongkuk Kim joins in with tasteful and supportive drumming. Burton eventually draws out a single note, closing out a masterful performance.
