Album Notes

"Christine has a magical purity to her voice that is truly angelic...her soaring, pure soprano reaches across any boundry like a warm hand and pulls you into the song." Annette Conlon - Eden Automatic

Christine's debut CD, The Love I Feel, was originally pressed on a small scale as a fundraiser for families in her community with seriously ill children and cancer patients. Since its release in 2006, she is thrilled that digital sales have gone world wide extending her fundraising efforts over 4 continents.

To create The Love I Feel, Christine collaborated with Philadelphia producers/arrangers Barry Sames and Martin Mellinger, Chicago jazz arranger Rose Collella, and a team of industry veterans from around the world. She also called upon the magnificent voice of friend and New York City vocalist, Aaron Fuksa, to sing three duets for the album.

Her diverse musical career has allowed her to work as a private voice teacher, vocal coach, concert soloist, musical theatre teacher, actress, and Kindermusik teacher. Prior to recording "The Love I Feel," Christine was the Director of the Joyful Noise Studio in suburban Philadelphia for 11 years where she vocal coached and music directed for many musicals in professional, regional, and local theatres. During the production phase of her CD, Christine co-hosted an infomercial for The Medifast, was featured in a TV commercial for Women's Wellbeing products, and appeared live several times at Odette's Cabaret in New Hope, Pennsylvania.
