Viennese
by
birth,
Greta
Keller
was
the
archetype
cabaret
chanteuse
-
elegant,
beautiful
with
choice
of
material
sophisticated
and
intelligent.
Her
style
of
singing
was
intimate
and
personal,
with
great
dramatization
of
a
lyric.
She
started
her
career
in
Vienna
in
the
1920s
before
travelling
to
Paris
where
she
appeared
at
the
classy
Casanova
night
club.
London
beckoned
where
she
performed
at
the
Café
Anglais
resulting
in
an
invitation
to
broadcast
for
the
B.B.C.
that
in
turn
earned
her
a
recording
contract.
Her
records
were
a
success
and
her
fame
spread
to
America.
In
1932
Greta
was
asked
to
replace
Libby
Holman
in
“The
Fourth
Little
Show”
in
New
York.
There
she
appeared
on
radio
with
Rudy
Vallee
and
quickly
had
a
programme
of
her
own.
Her
cabaret
debut
in
the
States
was
at
the
Algonquin
Hotel
supper
club
in
Manhattan.
The
thirties
and
forties
were
busy
years
for
Greta.
She
made
many
records
and
concert
tours
as
well
as
singing
in
cabaret
and
on
radio
in
Europe
and
in
America.
By
the
time
World
War
II
broke
out
she
had
taken
American
citizenship.
She
remained
active
until
the
1970s,
appearing
in
the
most
elegant
supper
clubs,
singing
in
English,
French
and
in
German.
This
CD
features
25
songs
Greta
recorded
in
the
1950s,
almost
all
appearing
on
CD
for
the
first
time.
The
selection
includes
songs
she
introduced
from
an
earlier
period
which
she
re-recorded
and
some
are
from
Broadway
shows
that
have
since
become
standards
forming
part
of
the
Great
American
Songbook.
