This album features a group of contemporary art songs by Korean women composers, all commissioned by The Korean Society of Women Composers. These songs are brought to life by Korean soprano Kyoung Cho, and Korean-Canadian bass Won Cho. Internationally acclaimed Korean soprano Kyoung Cho has established a reputation in diverse regions of Asia, Europe, The Mid-East, and North America. Critics praised her performances as "Sublimely beautiful, transcendent, serene, dazzling, and heavenly" and "Refined tone color and dignified sound, which effectively expressed an appeal that penetrated the heart." Korean-Canadian Bass Won Cho is in demand in both concert and operatic repertoire worldwide thanks to the unique range and beauty of his voice as well as his outstanding acting ability and strong stage presence, appearing with many of the opera houses and orchestras of the US, Canada, Europe, Mid East, Asia, and his native Korea. Critics hailed Cho's performances as "expertly played whose deep tones vibrate the seats," "one wished the score let him sing his overcoat aria twice," "Won Cho steal(s) the show," "deep resonant mellifluous sound," "he sang with a grave, classic beauty," "a particularly dark, melodic yet rafter-ringing bass that is worth the price of admission all by itself."
