When I was asked to sing 'Danny Boy' solo at age 8 I shyIy sang that whole solo (strong and clear) to the ceiling! I continued to feel singing to ceilings for several more years. ;-).
Then I heard Balkan songs, & it all changed for the better! What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?

“Bellow”
This is my homage to singing, wild, rooted, protesting, bonding with fellow singers and communicating with ancestors...inspired by my trip to Ukraine as part of KITKA to study songs related to midsummer celebrations and the mythology of the 'rusalka'
