The name of this New Hampshire women's septet literally translates 'woman, my friend.' From soaring harmonies to full voiced choral arrangements, they choose to share a woman's view of the world. The diversity of material is wonderful. Of the original songs, our favorite is 'Sea Glass' which is a glorious piece of music and a marvelous metaphorical view of the possibilities of life. In feel, it is a modern classical composition. You will find a madrigal ('Amaryllis' Lament) about menopause! It's hysterical. A couple of Linda Hirschhorn's rounds are presented. One of our favorite songs of hope was written by Fred Small, 'Everything Possible,' It is treated with a simple elegance. A wider cultural excursion into the world of the spirit is the arrangement of the traditional Sanskrit chant, 'Om Namo Bagavatae' which is sung in a harmonic complexity of unsurpassed beauty.
