Album Notes

A creative and dedicated musician, Stacey Clark has life-long experience in the arts. Stacey grew up in Québec and completed a performance degree in Baroque Singing at Université de Montréal. Ms. Clark has performed and taught early music workshops in Canada and in Europe. Over the last several years she has been giving solo performances in a wide variety of concert series and guest appearances.

As a soloist, Stacey has the vision and background skills necessary not only to realise personal projects, but also the versatility to be a strong and inspiring member of an ensemble. Also enjoying the challenges inherent in choral singing, Stacey is a sensitive and responsive soprano having participated in many choirs, including The Toronto Mendelssohn Choir.

"Love Came Down At Christmas" is Stacey's first full-length CD. She is proud to have produced and funded the project on her own, and is pleased to present a unique and sensitive recording featuring Canadian music.

We bring so much of ourselves to our celebration of Christmas: our ancestral culture, our language, our recent family history. Each year we carry forward new memories, adding new textures to our individual experience of "Christmas".

With this recording Stacey hopes to offer a sound for Christmas that is uniquely Canadian. Here she blends traditional carols arranged by Canadians with newer compositions - each a reflection of the composers' personal interpretations of this wintry season.

Stacey's Christmas wish for you is that this music enriches your celebration and underscores new memories - and that it might help you rediscover the baby in the manger.

Have a wonderful holiday.
