.....................JORANE
         Having been part of a gathered group of some fifty Winnipegers in a small venue on a cold winter night much like this one five years ago, I knew that I witnessing an artist who defied the rules and conventions of what one is told to do with a Cello. And the language of her songs, indeed sometimes French (she is Québecoise) often sounded like one of her own creation also, one that she felt perfectly comfortable with. Jorane is a true gift to the senses and the ImagInatIon, and I`d like to share her with you.

Here is just a small taste of the music Jorane creates & performs, this one with B. McFerrin on harmony . . . enJoy!

it's so important to be the best 'you', and it's so important to share and jam and enjoy each other as artists, as these two do:-)
and this piece reminds me of the Fun i used to have harmonizing in the past(often also in a language of my own~)...
