Live and act

Pale received classical ballet and piano lessons and learned to play the flute from an early age; She played longer as a flautist in the railway band in Wels .

In February 2013 she made her debut at Porgy & Bess with a first incomplete and English-language version of the winter trip Gone Too Far , which was published by Universal. The new music newspaper wrote about the album : “Lia Pale performs spacious jazz. Expressive her vocal color palette. Outstanding the accompanying musicians. And the album's flair remains. Fragrant, relaxed, charming. … 'Gone too far' is ultimately a jazz album that will be hard to beat this year. Schubert or not. Listen to everything. ” Gone Too Far received the Pasticcio Prize from Ö1.

Her second album, My Poet's Love , was released in February 2015 and contains new versions of songs by Heinrich Heine and Rainer Maria Rilke . In 2016 she was nominated for the Amadeus Austrian Music Award in the category "Jazz / World / Blues". On A Winter's Journey that same year she presented a further developed version of the winter journey, which this time included all the songs in the cycle.

She also devoted herself to the songs of Brahms and Handel.
