Cyrille Aimee and Singing with Emotion

Chris Tobin
/
WBGO

Singer Cyrille Aimee and band join host Michael Bourne in studio on the latest episode of Singers Unlimited Podcast.

When Cyrille Aimée joined WBGO's Michael Bourne on Singers Unlimited, she brought the same fine musicians who formed her band during a run at Birdland. She also brought songs from her then new album, Move On: A Sondheim Adventure (Mack Avenue), a celebration of the music of Stephen Sondheim.

Produced by Billy Robinson

Michael Bourne, who died on August 21, 2022, was a presence on the air at WBGO between the end of 1984 and the start of 2022 when he retired from full-time hosting duty. He is the host of the Singers Unlimited Podcast by WBGO Studios. Previously, he hosted the popular Singers Unlimited (1985-2022). He also hosted the equally popular Blues Break for several years. Michael is a senior contributor to Down Beat, with the magazine since 1969. Doctor Bourne earned a PhD in Theatre from Indiana University -- which comes in handy when he's a theatre critic for the WBGO Journal.
