"Breath of Song," released on July 12, 2021, by Oxford University Press Music, is a captivating collection of ten unaccompanied SATB choral works composed by contemporary women. Compiled and edited by Sarah Quartel, this 28-minute album showcases the diverse talents and artistic visions of female composers in the realm of secular, a cappella music. From the evocative "TaReKiTa" to the serene "Snow is Silent," each piece offers a unique listening experience, highlighting the richness and depth of women's contributions to choral music. The album features a mix of textures and styles, including the hauntingly beautiful "The Arrow and the Song" with its alto solo, and the uplifting "Wake, Love, Wake!" This collection is not just an album; it's a celebration of women's voices in music, a testament to their creativity, and a delight for any choral enthusiast.
