	Creating a soundscape that needs no translation, multicultural and multilingual SIORA takes hold of songs from around the world: from Latin America to Europe to the Middle East and beyond and transforms them using the universal language of jazz." William Page
	“Siora takes hold of world rhythms and delivers a repertoire of indigenous tunes, as well as Kleiman compositions, with assurance, insight, and affection.. Chapell goes beyond singing...extending lyrics into sonic possibilities." Don Williamson
	"Kleiman plays exceptionally well...... with digital virtuosity and perpetual creativity.” Howard Reich
	“There is much to admire about SIORA, including brilliant solo work and group harmony.” Lee Prosser
	“Ms Chapell's calling card is her facility with songs in their native languages but her trump is a voice that is filled with smokey nuance and emotion." Cathy DeDe
	“Singer Phyllis Chapell and pianist Dan Kleiman go on a mostly Brazilian jag, and it's a pleasant journey. She's a smokey-voiced chanteuse whose works in Portuguese, French and English make this a sensual encounter.” Karl Stark
	“Ms Chapell's inflections remind one of a smooth, sultry Joni Mitchell, if Joni could sing in eight languages.” John Noyd
