Εδώ λίγα.
Of the artists who enjoyed success during the folk music boom of the early '60s, very few have had a career as long and varied as Judy Collins, in large part because she's displayed a stylistic range matched by few of her peers. While Collins is a gifted songwriter who penned a few of her best songs, including "Since You Asked," "My Father," and "Secret Gardens," it's her talent and versatility as an interpretive vocalist that has brought her lasting success. Collins' strong, clear voice has been adaptable to everything from Appalachian folk (1961's A Maid of Constant Sorrow), pop-inflected folk-rock (her hit cover of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" from 1967's Wildflowers), show tunes ("Send in the Clowns" from 1975's Judith), artful a cappella ("Amazing Grace" and "Farewell to Tarwathie" from 1970's Whales & Nightingales), ambitious narrative pieces ("Marat/Sade" from 1966's In My Life, "Che" from 1973's True Stories & Other Dreams), and the work of contemporary songwriters such as Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, and Jacques Brel. The unifying factors of Collins' work have always been the maturity and depth in her performances and a commitment to quality songwriting, and she's upheld her high standards through a career that has spanned six decades. At the end of the 2010s, Collins enjoyed a prolific late-career boom, that included a handful of firsts including her first number one album on an American chart (2019's Winter Stories) and her first-ever album of all-original material (2022's Beauty and Resistance).
Judith Marjorie Collins was born in Seattle on May 1, 1939. She was the oldest of five children, and her father, Charles Thompson Collins, was a vocalist, radio host, and pianist. When she was ten years old, her family left Seattle and settled in Denver, Colorado. Collins had developed a strong interest in music, and she began taking piano lessons from Antonia Brico, a pioneering classical musician who was one of the first women to conduct a major symphony orchestra. Brico believed Collins had the potential to become a celebrated professional pianist, and at 13, she made her public debut with a performance of Mozart's Concerto for Two Pianos. However, to Brico's chagrin, Collins became fascinated with folk music after embracing the songs of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, and gave up her piano lessons to focus on learning the guitar. (In 1974, Collins produced and co-directed with Jill Godmilow a documentary about Brico, Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman, which was nominated for an Academy Award.)
