notes
This is Tracey's second CD - it really is a treasure box of beautiful, melodic songs, written in collaboration with Wim Oudijk and Frieda Gerhart. It creates a feeling of breezyness and inspiration using rich, imaginative music sprinkled with musical gems and thought-provoking lyrics. There are stories (Isabella's song, So much love), tales of fantasy (Welcome to my dream) and love (Peculiar affair, Love and fear), as well as reminiscing (Cafe days) , a giggle at the rigors of western society (In the burbs) and some philosophical soul-searching (Signs, No rhyme or reason, On and on). The sky features very deliberately as a theme - definitely to be listened to with a comfy chair and a glass of wine.
"Treasure Box is a surprise! I enjoy the rich inner space which these songs inhabit - aspirations, relationships…and some gentle lifestyle satire. Text and music blend lyrically while Tracey Roberts' warm voice amplifies the subtlety of the moods
which are enhanced by imaginative
harmonies and arrangements."
