"HARA'S QUEST"
Cutting Edge Productions
Barbara is a woman with a special, notorious voice. She owns her music production company and her recordings are made with a strong personal touch. Her latest CD shows this and much more: 11 songs that describe an interior, deep and fantastic journey. Seven instrumentalists play in this album (keyboards, guitar, bass, percussion, flute, viola, tenor sax and three back-up singers). And, of course, we find the voice of Barbara, blending together several musical styles (New Age, World Music, Jazz...) and showing the great energy that she is capable of generating. Each song is a little part of the long journey. They have esoteric ingredients, too: Barbara sings in the persona of a imaginary character (Hara, who lives 26 years into the future). The music, with wide classical touches, is remarkable in its special sensitivity and emotional rhythm.
