This is a fantastic American debut album by Emma Shapplin. This album should definetly put her at the top of the classical crossover charts with Sarah Brightman and Josh Groban. The amazingly talented Emma lets her haunting vocals soar over the music. I reccommend this wholeheartedly, especially if you're a fan of new age or classical crossover.

A devoted fan of Sarah Brightman, I stumbled upon this artist, Emma Shapplin. Her voice entranced me at once. When I looked through the booklet I was at once spellbound by this chanteuse. Her album sparkles with imperial music and an angel's voice. This album belongs in every crossover library; it adds theatrics and mystery to every room its music reaches. I was very lucky to discover Saran Brightman, and now I am honoured to have found Emma Shapplin.

Unique, that is the way we can describe Emma Shapplin's "Etterna". The singer reflects her inner growth by delecting us with melodies that go far beyond imagination. Her style can only be compared to Sarah Brightman's "Eden" but Shapplin's voice is sweeter and much more dramatic. Pieces like "Leonora" and "La Silente Riva" reflect that wonderful fascination that Ms. Shapplin shows for barroque Italian, with all of it's dramatism and melancholy. In the the other hand "La Notte Etterna" and "Céltica" make the listener go through different stages of their inner soul, learning about their own way of approaching that elven and magical creature who sings.
