来自华盛顿的Mirah全名Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn,这也是其个人的第四张专辑.2004年的专辑奠定了她在乐坛中的地位,包括国内的很多朋友都对她那清新干净的嗓音所吸引.轻柔的节奏,跳跃的音符,听(A)Spera的音乐会让人感觉异常的轻松.就好像回忆中清纯美丽的邻家女孩.一切都如此自然的抓住听者听觉神经,让人喜爱! Her fourth solo album strikes a bold path across a landscape of dynamic and varied melody forms and holds many surprises within its undulating reverie. "(a) spera" is Latin for hopes and difficulties linked inseparably, as we all are. This brave trek through a fragile ancient forest unfolds, revealing the destruction wrought by cruel conquest, recalls the relics of a love never realized, and decries the loss of ancient wisdom. Kalimba, hurdy gurdy, bongos, horns...instruments for all worlds, all times. Featured musicians include Chris Funk (The Decemberists), Tara Jane O'Neill, and Lori Goldston.
