Ute Lemper: Rendezvous with Marlene

Whether attracting or repelling her audiences, the international chanteuse Ute Lemper is never less than magnetic. Her style is perversely polymorphic: One moment she might tear into a song with predatory hunger, then she might purr out a dreamy croon or toss back her head for a brassy squeal of jazz. This set is inspired by a long conversation she shared with languid legend Marlene Dietrich in 1988.
