It flows gently into your ear. An exceptionally warm voice, a sound that fills the room with cozy warmth—like a perfect evening with a good book and a full-bodied wine. An ode to jazz.
Akio Le, a singer from Hanover with Vietnamese roots, is one of the few crooners in Germany who pays tribute to his idol, Nat King Cole, with a unique show. Above all, he brings that velvety vocal tone that such ballads require. But when it comes to swinging, he delivers an equally compelling, groovy sound.
It’s not hard to see why Nat King Cole is still so beloved and respected in the U.S. today. With his silky-smooth baritone voice, he sang his way into the hearts of all listeners. *Time* magazine wrote: “He used jazz to enrich and renew it, leaving behind a lasting legacy. Just like a king.”
For the “My Nat King Cole Story” project, Akio Le has collaborated with experienced jazz musicians to put together a stylish and varied program featuring classics like “Unforgettable” as well as lesser-known tracks from Nat King Cole’s repertoire, all “reimagined.” A mix of jazz, blues, and swing, surprisingly reimagined and reinterpreted. Simply put: an ode to jazz.
Let Akio Le & Band bring the timeless elegance of Nat King Cole back to the stage. An evening full of jazz, charm, and unforgettable music—don’t miss this special tribute concert.
