Donna Claflin has been a soloist with the Hollywood, Florida Philharmonic, The University-Civic Chorale, University of Miami (Florida), Miami Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Concert Choir of the University of Miami. She has also sung with the Tanglewood Festival Chorus, the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and the John Oliver Chorale.
Many aspects of childbirth and infant nurturing are changing--the birthing rooms, grandparents' rights, pre-mixed formulas, disposable diapers--but the lovely and soothing melodies of the past still please the contemporary baby and his or her parents.
In this collection you will find beautifully written classic melodies by composers such as Scott, Ives, and Gretchaninow, a hauntingly lovely Serbian folk lullaby and warm and loving lyrics by Menotti, Rich, and Stanton. The title song was written by Diane Piecuch for Donna Claflin on the birth of her first gradchild, Donna Colleen, on May 18, 1983.
This album is dedicated with love to our most precious gift - a baby. May these sounds surround the new family with love, caring and comfort. These words tell bedtime stories about life - how it was, how it is and how it will be, as long as our live are blessed by the precious gift of a child.
