wuthering heights, interpretation

One of the songs which took my breath each and every time I heard it this year was miss Cecile McLorin Salvant’s unreal cover of Kate Bush’s Wuthering Heights (1978). To me one of the essential traits of jazz is interpretation. IMHO Salvant takes this already classic song (mind you: Kate was 19 when she penned this!) to new heights. Saw her perform in a sold out Singel Theatre Antwerpen and that truly was one of the best nights of this year.
