Nina Simone - At Carnegie Hall

Fakten This live album by Nina Simone recorded in 1963 at the prestigious Carnegie Hall blends jazz, folk, blues, classical influences, and gospel into a deeply expressive and intimate concert setting, where Simone moves fluidly between piano-driven arrangements and emotionally charged vocals. The recording stands as both a powerful artistic statement and a historical document, reflecting the social tensions of the early 1960s while showcasing Simone’s singular ability to merge musical virtuosity with political expression. This new 2026 edition on a single LP is the first after more than 15 years and stands out for its original setlist, featuring “When I Was A Young Girl" and “The Young Knight" as bonus tracks.
