Album Notes & Community Reviews
Kathleen Battle sings sacred music by Bach, Handel, Mozart, Rossini and Faur茅 on 'Grace', joined by organist Anthony Newman, harpist Nancy Allen and the American Boychoir. Her serene, operatic soprano is set against orchestral accompaniment, and the program closes with an unaccompanied 'Were You There'.
