When I was a young child, my mother purchased a blouse and brought it home to the acclaim of my aunts and older sisters. “Oh, that’s smart!” they pronounced, cooing and stepping back to admire the thing. Not a little bit jealous, I was taken aback.

All My Heart — Deborah Voigt sings American Songs
ìI send my heart up to thee, all my heart in this, my singingî Robert Browning.
The title of this CD is taken from the text of one of Amy Beachís Three Browning Songs, which close the program. Given Deborah Voigtís ability to sing this program with completely natural expression and crystal clear diction while maintaining a consistently high standard of vocal production and musicianship, it is easy to believe that in her singing she shares with us something of what is most dear to her own heart. Fortunately for us, in doing this she is also giving us a fine recording of American art songs, some of which will be quite familiar to many listeners, others of which will be wonderful new discoveries.
