Soprano sorceress Isabel Bayrakdarian, acclaimed internationally for her glittering accomplishments on both stage and screen, presents – in this hypnotically alluring album of Armenian sacred music – a more spiritual aspect of her multifaceted musical persona.

Isabel conceived this project as a heartfelt gift to God for sparing the life of her mother, and the entire album is very much a "family affair." Her husband arranged the pieces, her brother plays the ceremonial percussion instruments, and her two sisters join her to form a vocal trio in several tracks.

This spellbinding music – scored variously for solo and ensemble voices, cello and women's choir – will take its fortunate listeners on a deeply spiritual and meditative journey of the soul.
