The Song Is Ended... But The Melody Lingers On, with its full-length and shortform arrangements, is intended to be a diverse listening experience and to add a fresh contribution to the wonderful world of Irving Berlin Songbook interpretations.

For many years, the jazz quartet My Lena has been arranging standards from the Great American Songbook as well as pop tunes by various songwriters. The band especially loves playing pieces by the renowned composer Irving Berlin. Even after his songs are over, the musicians still feel his melodies resonate lovingly. Because all the members of My Lena had revealed themselves to be Berlin-lovers over the years, they developed this album together – a playful program with arrangements of his unmistakable hits, lullabies and trouvailles of his lesserknown songs.
