It is music that should be listened to more than once to discover its different layers. I know I will and urge you to do the same » © Rick MARGITZA« Olinka is a gifted pianist and vocalist of russian origins (from Latvia). It's revealed in her very apropo project Gershwin's Blues, baring her soul and heart beautifully and honestly.
