CD Reviews

Lovely Voice
charles steak | Gold Beach, OR United States | 08/26/2003
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is a quiet and very pleasant album that grows on you with repeated listening. Henshall's voice seems perfectly suited to these songs, angst is banished, and later, you find yourself playing it again. A little bit like peacefully throwing stones into a pond and watching the ripples clear until you have a calm reflection again. One caveat - this is not an album of musical theater songs, despite Henshall's career as a West End actress."
Beautiful in an Unusual Way

"I have only seen Ruthie Henshall as Fantine on the Les Miserables in Concert DVD, but she has one of those voices that is very distinct.



This is a lovely CD. It isn't theater music, as mentioned before. It is almost like she is singing poems. The songs are not extremely melodic and are not the kinds of songs that anyone could sing successfully, but Ruthie accomplishes in extracting the beauty in them.



I appreciate the fact that the orchestrations are very simple. She is very much the soloist on this album and is not overpowered by heavy instrumentals and back-up singers. There is a lovely simplicity and sweetness to the whole album that is very unique. Each song seems to depend on the others as a whole and it is almost like she is telling a story with her voice.



I'm very impressed..."
One of the best cd's out

"West End and Browadway star Ruthie Henshall does an amazing job on this cd. This is her third solo cd to date, and every song is a treasure. Ms. Henshall's gorgeous voice is perfect and its huskiness gives every song a special quality. Her rendition of Hushabye Mountain from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang is absolutely haunting. If you haven't already done so, run out and buy this cd! You'll love it!"
