Ms. Colin, a cantorial soloist at Congregation Kol Ami in Flower Mound, [Texas] believes sacred Jewish music should be heard at home as well as in synagogue. After hearing her voice, you'll want to take this recording everywhere. Her vocals are expressive, but well-controlled. And she sings with a clarity that's breathtaking and rare.
This is a mixed collection of Sabbath songs. Lovers of tradition can celebrate with tunes such as "Mah Tovu" sung to a Chabad melody, and "Yismechu Hashamayim," put to a Hassidic melody. Those who prefer contemporary songs will appreciate Ms. Colin's interpretation of Debbie Friedman's "Mi Shebeirach" and "Sh'ma/V'ahavta."
Some of the music is lively, some of it slow and reflective. But 24 minutes is not a lot of music – most compact discs provide twice the amount of music. That's a huge shortcoming. On the other hand, the quality of the music is quite good.
