Chantal Acda’s new recording, with support from musicians in the U.S. and Belgium, is a work that gently pulls listeners in with her always natural and deeply immersive singing. Her voice delivers a profound sense of comfort.
The ability to transcend genres and move listeners emotionally comes partly from her duet work with Bill Frisell, whose compatibility with her is remarkable. Thomas Morgan, a long-time partner of Frisell, also makes significant contributions.
Acda’s English lyrics are simple yet sink deeply into the heart.
