The album title, 'Vox Sola', refers to music for solo voice, highlighting the album's focus on unaccompanied vocal works.
The album's concept of solo voice music takes listeners back to the very roots of music, when it was a direct expression of the soul and body.
The album explores the idea that the solo voice, in its ancestral state, allows composers to rediscover their origins, free from cultural obligations.
This album was recorded in September 2017 at the Museum of Santa Croce in Umbertide, Italy.
Lorna Windsor, the soprano on this album, began her musical journey as a pianist and violist before becoming a singer.
Six of the eight composers featured on this album were born within a five-year span, from 1926 to 1931.
The works on this album break down barriers between pitched singing and spoken voice, incorporating whispers, cries, and other vocal techniques.
