Sabeth Pérez is a German-Argentinian jazz vocalist living in NYC. As a skilled composer and arranger, she leads her own ensembles and sings in multiple languages with natural proficiency. Her voice is characterized by its silky precision and crystal-clear sound, which she employs in folkloric interpretations of Argentinian prose, arrangements of Brazilian songs, and classics from the Great American Songbook.

Pérez works with prestigious large ensembles such as the WDR Big Band, the Frankfurt Radio Big Band and the EOS Chamber Orchestra. She was a featured artist in the WDR Bigband's performance with renown pianist Billy Childs and has had the pleasure of sharing stages and recording studios with acclaimed musicians and conductors such as John Beasley, Jim McNeely, the Uptown Jazz Tentet, Lula Galvão, Luciano Biondini, and Jon Cowherd. The music from her upcoming album is scheduled to be performed by the WDR Big Band in the fall of 2024.
