Synopsis

Album Description
QUEEN OF NIGHT, all swirling in mystic traditions from Kabbalah to Sufi, is an eclectic journey through Ella Leya's past, a return to every culture she's ever known. "High points include KABBALISTIC PRAYER, which sports a Middle-Eastern vibe that's the aural equivalent of a snake charmer at work, and the more straightforward, radio-friendly DON'T YOU KNOW, which brings to mind CRUEL INVENTIONS-era Sam Phillips. Additionally, the album boasts several ballads that document in moving fashion the effort to embrace life in the aftermath of a calamitous loss." Russell Hall, Goldmine QUEEN OF NIGHT is a tribute to Ella Leya's son, Sergey. Song "Kabbalistic Prayer" is featured in movie "Ocean's 12".

CD Reviews

Not an ordinary in-flight musical accompaniment
Nara Skaya | Atlanta GA USA | 01/12/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I heard Ella Leya's Kabbalistic Prayer song on a Northwest Airlines in-flight music station of all places. This music really stood out from the standard homogenized fare one gets during a flight. I was transfixed at her beautiful voice and her blend of eastern and western musical influences. Expecting to find a complete CD of similar musical sounds, I ordered the CD from Amazon. I was pleasantly surprised to find the CD contained a diverse spectrum of music and influences like word beat, middle east, Russian, jazz and rock. `Sorry' and `Kabbalistic Prayer' and 'Little Boy' are clearly my favourite tracks on this CD, but Leya's decidedly change of pace rocker `Queen of Night' [Cher: cover this tune, it has your name stamped all over it!] show that she seems very comfortable recording in many musical genres. I highly recommend this CD for someone looking for quality, beyond-the-ordinary talent."
A spectacular CD

"I was knocked out and flat out thrilled with the moving music and lyrics of Ella Leya's "Queen of the Night." The songs had a haunting quality and were extremely touching. I particularly enjoyed the track titled "Fish Mario." It truly touched a nerve in me!
I would HIGHLY recommend this gifted artist to any music fan!"
Simply Amaing!!!!!

"I received Ella's CD as a gift, and I was simply amazed by the emotion and power felt from listening to this CD. The music is outstanding; calming, yet invigorating. It makes you want to smile, laugh, cry, and sing along all at the same moment. I can listen to Ella's music while driving in the car, getting dressed in the morning, studying, and relaxing. It is simply amazing. I can't wait to hear more of Ella Leya's work. She is truly a wondrful singer, with a voice that is like none other, and her words are all her own. I wish her good luck, and I am anxious to hear more from Ella.Everyone should pick up a copy. It is undoubtedly worth it!"
