Heavenly Voices

Product Description Filmed November 7, 2006 at the historic Olympia Theater at the Gusman Center in Miami, Florida, Heavenly Voices spotlights the soaring vocal artistry of Ryland Angel, Giorgia Fumanti, and Sasha & Shawna- four exceptional singers whose musical abilities and training set them apart from their contemporaries- in a remarkable recital of intimate songs accompanied by the Tim Janis Ensemble. While they differ stylistically and vocally from each other, these virtuosi share a singular trait- the warmth and operatic intensity they bring to their individual interpretations. The impact of the live show is heightened by sumptuous film production and striking visuals framing each performance, filmed in locales native to each artist, from the hills of Tuscany to the valleys of Wales to autumn in New England. Following its PBS premiere, the solo albums for each of the performers will also be available, as well as a 3-CD Heavenly Voices boxed set including all three albums. TRACK LISTING: 1. Intro 2.

Amazing Grace (ALL) Amazon.com This PBS concert, featuring inspirational and modern songs performed by Ryland Angel, Giorgia Fumanti, and the sultry Americans Sasha and Shawna, is, in fact, heavenly listening. The disc features a live concert of the artists performing in Miami, and juxtaposes gorgeous scenery and New Age-y graphics to help transport the audience. The English tenor Angel tackles traditional fare like "The Water Is Wide," with layered string accompaniment (think early Enya) from the Tim Janis Ensemble. Italian soprano Fumanti takes a slightly more classical approach to her songs, including a goose-bump-inducing "Ave Maria." Sasha and Shawna are undeniably talented singers and drop-dead gorgeous as well, though they sometimes seem to for
