It is a pure joy to be able to listen to a singer with such a rare gift, such control and subtlety, and such complete command of her voice. Katie’s interpretations of these songs are so imaginative and original that they reveal these songs as never before. The fact that she, along with her wonderfully talented colleagues, performed these works live in the studio is an almost unimaginable feat of brilliant musicianship. Congratulations. It is a master work.
