Ester Wiesnerova is a Slovak vocalist and composer whose music bridges contemporary jazz and poetic storytelling. Her album „Blue Journal“ features original compositions in Slovak and English, performed by an unusual quintet featuring harp and percussion. Praised as „an artist of rare imagination and formidable arranging skills“ (JazzWise, UK), Ester’s voice is described as a „warm, inviting, whispered breath“ (The Whole Note, CA) and „manifesting itself quietly and with great gravity“ (All About Jazz, US). Recognized by Forbes in their 30 under 30 and considered for Grammy awards in two categories, Ester’s poetic depth and distinctive artistry leave a lasting impression on all careful listeners.
