BORN: music of Edie Hill and Michael Gordon
our 27th album, released today on Navona Records
Friday, August 12

We have sung the music of BORN many times; the works and their themes feel so organic to us. Edie's Spectral Spirits is an explosion of impassioned ideas memorializing extinct birds. Michael's Born is a deeply-thought meditation on relationships. That's also the case with his virtuosic Returning, which asks the question, “What knits us to the soul of another?” With texts ranging from Thoreau to Kai Hoffman-Kroll to Wislawa Szymborska, BORN covers a lot of emotional territory and we're grateful to Edie and Michael for their raw, honest art. 

The recording of BORN is made possible through the generous support of Carol Westfall, longtime friend and benefactor of The Crossing.
