CD Review of Karen Merchant's international collection of lullabies

Come To the Window

Karen Merchant's Come to the Window CD

Karen Merchant's new CD, Come to the Window, is by turns haunting and enchanting. It is a collection of what the singer calls "nightsongs and lullabies," although this description may not do justice to either the musical or the geographical range of material on this album.

Joshua Kratka, Boston Environmental Review

The sea is calm tonight,
The tide is full, the moon lies fair
Upon the straits;...
Come to the window,
Sweet is the night air!"
from Dover Beach, by Matthew Arnold
