Listen to rousing gospel songs, an eloquent arrangement of the hymn Amazing Grace by Ron Jeffers, Vivaldi's spirited Beatus Vir accompanied by the Jubilate Orchestra strings, contemporary works by composers such as Andrew Carter, Otmar M‡cha, and WomenSing's commissioned work by Libby Larsen. As its title suggests, the emotions portrayed will run the gamut as well: from the mystery of Annunciation to the menacing meandering of The Wendigo; from the full range experience of love fulfilled in the sensual Nigra Sum by Catalunyan composer Pau Casals, to the dreamy lilting of the Canadian folk tune Away From the Roll of the Sea.

Begun over a decade ago in a cozy room full of women, Womensing has its roots in the hills and mountains of Addison County, Vermont , but draws its repertoire from around the world, as well as from their own heritage. The songs the six women share, sung with spirit and exuberance, celebrate the commonality and vitality of the human spirit. 17 songs: 'Cin Cin,' 'Au Chant de L'Alouette,' 'Ogrejala,' 'Breaths,' 'Con al Viento,' 'Kang Ding Qing Ge,' 'Liljano,' 'Come By the Hills,' 'Sto Mi E Milo,' 'Yo Mi Llamo Cumbia,' 'I Feel Like Going On,' 'Ani Ma' Amin,' 'Senzenina,' 'Woyawa,' 'Yo Yisa Goy,' 'Wade in the Water Medley' and 'Soon I Will Be Done.' A heartfelt gift of music from the Vermont hills.
