Fiona Joy Hawkins - Ice

 ICE: Piano Slightly Chilled

Fiona Joy Hawkins
Little Hartley Music
2007

Fiona's third album is a potpourri of themed piano pieces beautifully enhanced by additional orchestral music.

Mostly up-tempo, but not overly energetic, the "penguin whisperer's" compositions create delicate, magical winter landscapes of music.

A delightful surprise on this album are the two vocal compositions, Snow Bird and Crystalized Love. Not only is Fiona an accomplished composer and painter, she also has a beautiful, almost angelic singing voice.

Determined to prove to her teenagers that she's not just a "classical music nerd", Fiona has created an album that's hot enough to melt any winter cold and snow. Snuggle up in front of a fire with your favorite drink and let Ice comfort you.
