Press reviews

„Siggy Davis has the soul of Aretha Franklin, the deep feelings of Billie Holiday, the gospel feeling of Mahlia Jackson, the cheeky blues of Bessie Smith and above all the swing and improvisational joy of Ella Fitzgerald.
This is what characterizes Siggy’s voice…“ 

„Siggy Davis has the soul of Aretha Franklin, the deep feelings of Billie Holiday, the organic gospel feeling of Mahalia Jackson and above all the swing and improvisational joy of Ella Fitzgerald in Siggy’s voice“ Lothar Krist Music Editor and Presenter NDR/Hannover Big Band Director

„Siggy Davis shows a range that, if she continues to prove herself, should take her into the higher spheres of her profession. Ms. Davis is an expressive actress whose performance is not only realistic, but captivating!“
The Black American, NYC

„The absolute highlight of the ensemble is Siggy Davis as Sonya. She is the secret star of the show when she sings with passion in a voice that fills the opera house. There’s an eroticism to it, a vibrato that gives you goosebumps…“
