Cracked Voices, Uncracked

In 2020 it’s been a delight to hear two songs from Cracked Voices being given a fresh airing (links below).

In Scottsdale Arizona (USA), Michael Tallino and Riley McKinch chose ‘Earthrise’ as part of their Songs of Peace for a Wild World concert (part of the Arts at Nativity emerging artist series) back in June.

In July, Donna Lennard (one of the performers who premiered Cracked Voices) and Benjamin Graves also selected ‘The blessing of the road-born child’ to be part of their first Songs and Sounds online concert, focusing on motherhood.

We hope you enjoy their performances as much as I have. 

Premiere at ARU Cambridge

Thank you to everyone who came to our premiere at Cambridge’s Anglia Ruskin University. It was a joy to be able to share Cracked Voices with you. For us it was a moving experience hearing Miles Horner, Donna Lennard, Sue Pettitt and Ralph Woodward taking the songs and making them their own (all photos are from our pre-performance rehearsal).

Feedback was overwhelming: “Quirky” “Novel” “Eclectic” “Soulful” “Poignant” “Unexpected” “Thought-provoking” “Inspirational” “Moving” “Insightful”.

 

We can’t wait to do it all again on April 28 in Royston!
