Congratulations to Cécile McLorin Salvant, who has won the Edison Jazz Award in the Netherlands for International Vocal for her Nonesuch debut album, Ghost Song, released earlier this year.

The New York Times calls Ghost Song "her most revealing and rewarding album yet." Uncut says she is "one of the most daring and resourceful vocalists in jazz—or any other genre, for that matter." The Arts Desk exclaims: "The treasure trove of marvels that is Ghost Song exceeds all expectations." You can pick up a copy and hear it here.

Salvant begins a week-long residency at the Blue Note in New York City tomorrow night and takes the tour back to Europe in early October. See below for all the currently announced show. For all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.
