Her CD collection, Waves: The Bossa Nova Sessions, is refreshingly original in scope and presentation, each song a moving invitation to the audience to share the beauty of the bossa nova sound.

Each song is lovingly sung with much emotion and sensitivity. The listening audience will discover their own favorites among many in this fine collection.
