Emilia Mårtensson

With an unusual pedigree (half-Swedish, half-Slovenian) and an unimpechable musical track record (degree from Trinity College of Music, collaborations with the Kairos Quartet), Emilia Mårtensson clearly deserves attention. She has a grand, haunting voice and a striking knack for meshing folk tunes with jazz sensibility, yet fame still eludes her. The public's loss – she's a spellbinding performer.
