{Short Biography}As of 2009, Lee has won the best female jazz vocalist in the "Jazzman of the Year" for 13 consecutive years, and a total of 15 times; however, she sings from many genres, and is not strictly a jazz vocalist. Her cover of "We Will Rock You" performed very well throughout all of Asia. Lee is of Korean ethnicity, but her family has been in Japan for several generations. Her head voice is extremely well connected and strong for a contralto, and she shares a similar range with tenors, and tessitura with baritenors. Her voice is highly elastic and is capable of going from high notes to low notes immediately, without breaking or pausing. Low notes are easily sustained. Issues with tension in the voice have drastically improved in recent years, but the voice also seems to have lightened some with age; notes are now only being consistently supported down to E♭3.
