In her new album “Song Of A Girl” vocalist Anna Margolina picks up on a long forgotten female voice of yiddish literature: Anna Margolin (1887-1952) with whom she shares not only her name, but also her country of origin. The result embodies a broad, melodic and contemporary view on jazz, embracing elements of folk and electronic.

Rosa Lebensboim, who came from a religious family, immigrated from former Belarus to New York around the 1920s and wrote poetry under a pseudonym - literary critic were convinced that such strong texts must have been written by a man. Remembered in small circles, but more relevant than ever: reflecting on identity, tradition, gender, history, religion and the overall human desire for love and belonging.

The compositions borrow elements from different genres, addressing the audience in a melodious and authentic way. As in her debut album “One Endless Night” (2023, XJAZZ! Music) the vocalist is concerned with the eternal search for identity and understanding of one another, despite or even due to our differences.

The album features Anna Margolinas compositions for the first time, which she is presenting with a strong collective of versatile musicians. The songs were co-written with well-known bassist Paul Kleber, Arseny Rykov plays piano and Martin Krümmling drums & backing vocals. The band successfully sells out jazz venues and is travelling to festivals abroad. Their second studio album will be released in June 2026 on XJAZZ! Music.
