Songs my mother taught me (1999)

"There is simply no way to desribe this music other than Songs my mother taught me. I remember rehearsals for recitals, opera rehearsals and concerts with orchestra, and listening (eavesdropping really) on voice lessons that my mother [Roberta Alexander (senior)] gave at the university music department. I heard hear sing a wide variety of music that included Schubert, Mahler, Villa-Lobos, Wagner, Verdi, Puccini, Beethoven, Bach, Rachmaninov, Quilter and a myriad of lesser-known American composers - well known arrangers of traditional spirituals, popular composers and arrangers of folk songs. It was to these Americans that I turned when the idea for this project arose". (Roberta Alexander, cd-boekje)
