Reviews: "Albert's achy, crystal voice sounds so good in both languages that this project doesn't just float-it flies in spots."...Austin Chronicle / March 1992 "for those who can imagine a waltz
across Texas with Maurice Chevalier." |

A skeptical college guidance counselor once asked me what I planned to do with a major in music and languages. .. "Sing in French?" Not a bad idea! This one is for him, wherever he is. Actually, my French Swiss mother came to the states as a young woman. Growing up I spent many hours sifting around the kitchen listening to her, my aunt and grandmother as French sounds rolled off their tongues. Gorgeous. My high school French introduced me to the music of Edith Piaf and I was hooked. Several trips to Paris over the years to visit my grandmother further embedded the sounds of France in my psyche. Texas is my home and where my music originates. Thus, TEXAFRANCE blends these two very special influences. I hope these songs bring you as much pleasure as they have brought to me. Enjoy! Christine THIS IS FOR MOM, ANDREE, AND LILY, OF COURSE. |
