Congratulations to Patricia Barber, Jim Anderson, Ulrike Schwarz, and Bob Ludwig on their 2022 GRAMMY Award nomination for “Best Immersive Audio Album” for Clique!, the critically-acclaimed collection of standards released earlier this year on Impex Records. Clique! finds world-renowned jazz vocalist Patricia Barber reinterpreting classics by Stevie Wonder, Rodgers & Hammerstein, Lerner & Loewe, Thelonious Monk and more as she “respects traditions, bends them to make her own points, and freshens them into something new,” as noted in the album liner notes by NPR’s Susan Stamberg. On Clique!, Barber once again teams with GRAMMY-winning engineer Jim Anderson to write the next chapter in a 26-year working relationship that has very few precedents. Recorded, mixed and mastered in Digital eXtreme Definition (352.8kHz/32bit) at Chicago Recording Company’s Studio 5, the sessions for Clique! are among Anderson’s finest engineering achievements. Each recording renders every inflection of Barber’s voice with astounding presence and clarity, perfectly complementing her nuance in ways that continue to redefine the standards of sound.
