Becoming includes 15 original uplifting joyous songs, among them love songs, lullabies, songs of healing, peace, and forgiveness, in styles that range from jazz, folk, and pop (with a touch of gospel), to klezmer, liturgical, and a cappella. “The melodies are gorgeous, the harmonies luscious, the poetry exquisite.”
“After listening to Linda Hirschhorn’s latest, I have to say that I am transported by her heavenly voice. In this genre-busting recording, “BECOMING” runs the gamut from lullaby to torch song to mizrachi (Eastern) groove to chamber music to swing, all with the same level of mastery that you’ve come to expect from this radically talented singer. After just a taste of this masterpiece, if you don’t decide you want to be her when you grow up, you’ll at least decide you want to spend endless hours listening to her.”
