An unusually beautiful album weaving together the themes of christmas and easter in a rich musical tapestry that embraces many musical traditions.
Helma's original songwriting is wrapped in layers of celtic whistles, harp, hurdy-gurdy, fiddle, tabla, sitar, bouzouki, guitars, oud and a wealth of percussion. Every song sheds a different light on these ancient themes.
Seasons of Grace was nominated for Best Folk Release in the 2002 West Coast Music awards.
