A favorite from the Art Institute of Chicago to the Musée de Montmartre in Paris, actor/singer Claudia Hommel is best known for her cabaret concerts of French and American songs celebrating Paris. Not limited to the role of French chanteuse, she sings a repertoire encompassing French chansons, American standards, 19th and 20th-century art songs and theater music. “Claudia Hommel, a singer and actress who performs in both theater and cabaret, brings a sense of theater with her when she goes into cabaret . . . Miss Hommel’s voice can be strong and soaring, and she uses it to excellent dramatic effect in her lusty Spanish and French songs.” - New York Times
