Dori Levine

Dori Levine

For over two decades, Dori Levine has been enchanting audiences in and around New York City and overseas with her exceptional performances in clubs and concerts. With her unique improvisational style, Dori effortlessly interprets a wide range of material, from standards and blues to her own "otherworldly" free improvisations.


Her daring abandon into the art of scat singing has garnered her recognition and developed her own distinctive style. Dori has graced major venues such as The Blue Note, Birdland, The Knitting Factory, and Steinway Hall in NYC, and has collaborated with acclaimed artists, including Dara Birnbaum, whose work is in M.O.M.A's permanent collection. She has also sung with Kirk Nurock's "Natural Sounds Ensemble'' at Carnegie Hall and with Jay Clayton's "Different Voices" vocal ensemble. Her performances have taken her across the globe to Sweden, Finland, Italy, and the Brighton Festival in England.
