Calling All Dawns - Various Artists
The members of Anonymous 4 were very excited to be asked to participate in an ambitious recording project, Calling All Dawns. It consists of twelve songs in twelve different languages, all dealing with the themes of life, death and rebirth. A4 was joined by many distinguished artists, including Frederica Von Stade and the Soweto Gospel Choir, performing other songs. The composer Christopher Tin is best known for his award-winning music for the video game Civilization IV, the title song of which, Baba Yetu, is featured on the CD. Anonymous 4, with Jacqueline singing the solo lament or keen, recorded a beautiful Irish inspired piece, Caoineadh.
