Elina presents a beautiful selection of spiritual music dedicated to the eternal search and longing for inner peace. It\u2019s perhaps one of her most personal albums ever which connects the listener with Elina\u2019s Latvian roots. Latvian choirs are extremely famous worldwide, so it was natural for her to want a Latvian choir with her for this recording. Two Latvian composers have been involved in the music for this recording \u2013 Ugis Praulin\u0161 for his work Dievaines, and Eriks Esenvalds who has written an a cappella arrangement (Allegri Miserere) especially for this recording.\r
\r
The album includes a couple of real discoveries like Praulin\u0161\u2019 Dievaines, but also some hit repertoire like the Cantique de Noel d'Adam. This is probably her most commercial album to date, the careful selected variety of the repertoire will attract a lot of new fans.\r
\r
Elina is joined on this recording by her husband, the well-known Gibraltan conductor Karel Mark Chichon OBE. This is their second collaboration on disc for DG following the success of Habanera\r
Up to 400 000 units shipped on DG, arguably the finest mezzo soprano of her generation, flawless voice throughout her range, and impeccable technique and musical taste. A star of today and tomorrow.\r
