How sad. Such a talent and taken away from us at the age of 37 after a twenty-one month long struggle with breast cancer. There was undoubtedly so much more music in her heart & soul that the world will now not get to enjoy…

For those interested in more details about Ms. de Sela and her artistry, her is a link to a NYTimes article about her passing.
In the article, I was struck by a definite parallel between Lu’s music & Ms. de Sela’s. The author says that Ms. de Sela’s music was “difficult to pigeonhole” – something I say all the time about Lu when describing her to friends & family.
And, there was another great quote from another artist I like a good deal – Feist:
Her melodies are hypnotic,” the Canadian singer-songwriter Feist told The New York Times in 2005. “There’s something about her voice: you can tell her feet are planted on the ground, and she’s not even moving — maybe she’s just holding her arm out in front of her — and she’s just singing from the marrow of her bones.
