"Her voice is smooth, strong and very skillfully employed, without gimmicks and with a naturalism that is very appealing." Jazzreview.com. Cynthia was the winner for March 2005 in the Fabulous Finds Competition, held by the Great American Songbook Fabulous 690 Radio Station, who has sadly, recently gone off the air.
This CD contains fifty minutes of beautiful, mostly mellow, jazz. You can't go wrong with the great roster of musicians and choice of tasteful tunes.
