notes

Jessica Bachicha, one of Eroica's newest and most sensational discoveries, sings with the freshness of Charlotte Church, the vigor of Maria Callas, and the resonance of Kiri Tekanewa.

She studied for four years with Leslie Umphries, concentrating on the integration of baroque ideas with ancient Greek musical principles, creating a synthesis with modern composition. She is currently working toward a combination master's/doctorate degree in vocal music at Leeds University in England.

Her new Eroica release, Illumination, is a wonderfully eclectic mix of musical textures and styles, ranging in
genre from Gregorian Chant and early baroque to contemporary. The repertoire includes compositions by Villa-Lobos, Leonard Bernstein, Isabella Leonard, and her own composition, The World Becomes Flesh.

Various combinations of voice, cello, viola, viola de gamba, violin, harpsichord and piano are utilized on this Eroica recording. Jessica Bachicha's musical vision involves a diverse musical discourse of styles and ideas, resulting in a profound depth of beauty.
