REVIEWS

Rejoice in Hope
author: Joe Lazalde
The realization of a lifetime of preparation, coupled with the joy of singing brings Anna's precious gift to us. This album provides a spiritual boost every time I listen to it. Msgr. Brennan is also blessed with beautiful voice. I guess I should disclose that Anna's my little sister and I couldn't be prouder of the way she has used her talent to bring glory to our Lord! This album is really good. "I can only imagine is my favorite, but I like them all.

author: Tony Sandate
From the first track to the last, this cd is a moving experience. There is real warmth to Anna Betancourt's voice. This is not your ordinary "church singer", so many of which have put out cd's. There is artful communication here. My favorite track is WHERE YOU GO-beautiful arrangement. Joe Brennan's vocals mesh extremely well with Anna's. Highly recommended!
