ABOUT DONNA and HER MUSIC

Donna Michael, on the Quarterlight label, is a composer and singer/songwriter whose critically acclaimed acoustic piano contemporary instrumental and vocal recordings have been described as "a heavenly escape," "food for the soul," and "wondrously healing." Her original piano compositions immerse the listener in a world of grace, elegance and quiet passion. Her vocal style is gently expressive and delicately honest. Donna's music is perfect for healing, hope, inspiration, creativity, wellness, meditation, massage, yoga and much more. Technically superb yet deeply touching, here is music that whispers encouragement and love.

From Donna, about this album--
"Many of you know me as a composer and solo pianist. Sometimes my melodies have words--whether I write them or whether you create them as you listen. Because you have asked, here is music that comes from or touches my heart--and hopefully yours as well. Thank you for listening--and for believing."---Donna

A Strange Story--
One night during our recording sessions (just as I started singing "The Will of the Wind") we suddenly found ourselves in the midst of a severe thunderstorm, one block from what appeared to be "ground zero" of a tornado. The storm ripped the roof from a nearby building, downed countless trees, and left us holding on to the tapes in the darkness and searching for candles...

But that was just the beginning...every single day there were more storms, heavy rains, high winds, and subsequent loss of electrical power. Each time we thought we couldn't continue the project, we did. Sound Emporium (our recording studio) was operational only an hour before we were to resume our next recording session, and Scruggs Sound Studio was silent and dark for several days until the very afternoon we started the final mix.

Seemed like the wind--and something much more--was everywhere we were...
