The Ellington is thrilled to welcome the return of Australian music royalty.
“There is a difference between very good singers and great ones. It can be difficult to define, but for me, it has to do with a singer’s ability to inhabit a song, embody and believe it, and transmit that belief to the listener. Alma Zygier possesses that most rare ability. She is a great singer, both compelling and convincing”
Paul Kelly

The Melbourne-born songstress is the daughter of Deborah Conway and Willy Zygier. Paving her own path with her fiercely original style, she defies expectations and continues to leave audiences in awe after every performance.
Commanding the stage with a heady mix of Jazz and Blues, Alma Zygier’s mesmerizing presence brings to this timeless music a truly authentic yet modern grit. Her idiosyncratic vocals teeter on the edge of playful and peculiar, a balancing act she has perfected. Alma masterfully portrays both her power and fragility, delivering performances that are enigmatic and provocative.

Alma has played at Sydney Opera House, Melbourne International Jazz Festival, Hamer Hall, Melbourne Recital Centre, The Famous Spiegeltent, Wharf 1 Theatre, Sydney Festival, Adelaide Fringe, Rockwiz, Tamworth Country Music Festival, Port Fairy Folk festival, WOMADelaide, Adelaide Cabaret festival, Adelaide Festival etc.
She has a featured track on the latest Paul Kelly album and she is joined tonight by a trio of Perth’s finest jazz musicians.
