" Helene Dallaire employs tasteful liberties. She sings "God Rest ye Merry Gentleman" without words! She often imparts wonderful turns of phrase and musical touches that have to be heard. Her voice, at once original, lilting, somewhere between operatic and pop, is incredibly beautiful.
Performance style! This is no "historic taxidermy"
A Wonderful cd. Recommended ! "
- Greg LaTraille, Bayside Music Directory
" This disc features traditional French Christmas folk songs from the 15th,16th,and 17th centuries. The songs have been passed down through performers, as their composers have been long forgotten. Singer Helene Dallaire makes a lovely debut on these songs , most sung in their original dialects. THERE IS A WONDERFUL RENDITION OF GREENSLEEVES
Pulse! Magazine
Five stars " The focus on French Renaissance Music is perfect for vocalist Helene Dallaire, from Montreal. Her tone evokes a purity associated with a bygone era. You can escape into this music and relax . "...
