CD: ‘She Wrote the Songs’ (HEAR SAMPLER) I have written a book, to be published by Valley Press, to go with the CD shown here. It is to celebrate the contributions of Victorian women to the genre of Popular Song. Songs with piano for the parlour being the one musical sphere women had unrestricted access to in the Victorian and Edwardian world, this is where the masterpieces are to be found. But first, one must resurrect the genre. Dipping into my sheet music collection, started when I was 9 years old, I examine and research the fascinating stories behind the songs. A whopping 34 tracks! You can buy it right HERE There will also be MERCH and YOUTUBE content. |

CD: ‘In Mirth and Mourning‘ Released November, 2016 Since I put up posters for Early Music Vancouver as a 19 year old student I’ve wanted to do a Renaissance CD! These two wonderful fellows are really fun colleagues and we have performed in a wide array of splendid Stately Homes and even Sir Francis Drake’s “Golden Hinde”. Click on the title to see a small sample of this relaxing recording. Includes a few of my favourite Campion songs, from a female perspective, and also two Broadside Ballads…”A Country Lass” and the rather risque “Watkins Ale” |

Editor’s shortlist, best CDs of 2008, American Record Guide.“It’s a beautiful and balanced program, and the singing is perfect. The voice is silvery but substantial.
