La escucho una y otra vez y me parece más fascinante en cada ocasión

This is gorgeous. It almost feels like we're being let in on a very personal communion between 3 powerful women. Made me cry about 5 times (which is a good thing of course!). Thanks for the upload. Along with Turtle dreams, book of days and dolmen music this is the best.

I read somewhere that for a long time she didn't compose for multiple voices because she couldn't find any singers who could handle it. Then she found Andrea & Naaz.

I saw this performed in San Francisco around the same time. One of the greatest performances of my lifetime.

I saw it with a friend named Carol. If you tell me you're the same Carol I'm going to fall over dead. Does the name Terry Sendgraff mean anything to you?

@deenibeeniable: Sorry--

That would have been Oprah-worthy!
