Searching the Heart
Searching the Heart, the sophomore album of soprano Andrea Edith Moore, returns her to the love of art song for piano and voice. This selection of songs and cycles from four of her contemporaries, composers Shanan Estreicher, Stacy Garrop, Tony Solitro, and Tarik Ghiradella, convey the emotional warmth and dynamism of her voice and the sensitivity and precision of Robert Brewer’s exquisite piano accompaniment. The songs range from grieving and wailing to prayerful resolve and twinkling wonder, proving this genre maintains the range and the power to move contemporary ears.
