Sisca Interview

[John]

Sisca talks to Suite101 about her forthcoming second studio album, and discusses her four nominations for the Classical Crossover UK Awards.

"The second album is quite different from the first one. Though I haven't finished with it yet, I have done seven songs at the moment, so I pretty much have the idea of how can I describe the second one, for those who have listened to the first one, they might noticed that the album has some new age, world kind of music mixed with the classical crossover. In this record, people will find the stricter classical crossover music. It has a stronger classical sense in my opinion, but still the CD will tie to the first one, and I think people will notice the difference."

Oooh! I didn't know she was making a second album! <3

Although I think Sisca got confused over the nominations. She was shortlisted for four, but was actually nominated for three. Any other year without such strong contenders, Sisca would have won many of them.

Thanks for the link!

Thanks for the news! Sisca is very original artist. Her way to do music is very interesting. I'm looking forward to her new album.

I hope there'll still be some original material on the new album! I love Sisca's operatic voice so I'm still excited. She sings poppier on her first album. Oh, I can't wait!

I did tell her over facebook to her that she should record a song in the Indonesian language and she seemed to agree, saying she had recorded in Indo before but hadn't publised it and maybe she would in the future. -You may have noticed she switches between Indonesian and English a lot on FB. Don't know if she'll get to on this album as it would probably would have sounded better on the first album with the new age/world flair...

Deriving the core of her sound from traditional classical music, Sisca weaves intelligent pop melodies with inspiring lyrics, layering them delicately overtop one another to create a one-of-a-kind style. I caught up with the kind musician who opened up about writing music, the music scene in Indonesia, and her #1 fan.
