Title: Church shows promise of developing the "Voice of an Angel"
Review: While I enjoyed hearing Charlotte Church's voice, when it could be heard over the accompaniment, only one song on the entire recording came close to the promise of the CD's title -- the Caccini "Ave Maria." The song was achingly lovely, despite Church's awkward phrasing/breathing and other technical difficulties.Every song on the disc is nice, but when heard in one sitting, the songs become monotonous, because Church simply hasn't lived long enough to know what she's singing about. There's no expressiveness or emotion in her singing yet. However, with more study and with age, she has the potential to develop the "Voice of an Angel" that this CD promises, but fails to deliver. I look forward to hearing future recordings.
