| | Sachal Vasandani Eyes Wide Open CD Sachal Vasandani Discography of CDs
Perhaps distracted by his tousle-haired good looks, critical comparisons have likened newcomer Sachal Vasandani to Harry Connick, Jr., but the jazz crooner's light, reedy voice owes more to breezier singers like Kenny Rankin and Michael Franks. On his excellent debut album, the New York City-based vocalist, backed by a cracker-jack band, tackles both jazz standards ("I Can't Give You Anything But Love") and intelligent originals, creating an enticing package and a running start towards stardom.

| | Craig Hella Johnson Thorns On The Rose CD (2009)
Eyes Wide Open album
$16.15 Renowned as one of the most influential voices in choral conducting in the United States, Craig Hella Johnson furthers his reputation for imaginative collaborations and a keen sense for a wide range of musical styles by offering his first solo album, Thorns on the Rose. Johnson sings and plays keyboards on this album of pop, folk ballads and art songs. By stepping down from the podium for this solo album, Johnson expresses the universal idea that "even though a song may have been buried for awhile, you've got to find a way to sing it." Known best for his work as Founder and Artistic Director of the Grammy Award-Nominated choral ensemble Conspirare, Johnson has assembled some of the finest singers in the country to create a world class, award-winning ensemble committed to creating dynamic choral art.In addition to his work with Conspirare, Johnson also serves as the Music Director Laureate and Conductor of the Victoria Bach Festival, an annual event that draws musicians and critical praise from around the country. Of Johnson's performance of Beethoven's Missa Solemnis, Mike Greenberg of the San Antonio Express-News wrote: "Through all the amazing ebbs and flows of dynamics, the radiant balances, the seamless connection of episodes, the theatrically astute tempo relations, the unified structural arc, the music shone forth with organic naturalness. Nothing sounded fussed over. Everything just sounded right."Johnson served as Director of Choral Activities at the University of Texas in Austin from 1990 to 2001 leading the graduate program in conducting. He was Artistic Director of San Francisco-based Chanticleer from 1998-1999 and has served as guest conductor with the Austin Symphony, San Antonio Symphony, Santa Fe Symphony, Chicago's Music of the Baroque, and the Berkshire Choral Festival. In 2008, Johnson was inducted into the ...
