TRANSCRIPT
America’s leading Filipino jazz vocalist, CHARMAINE CLAMOR, the creator of “jazzipino,” returns to her homeland in this collection of sublime serenades. Singing in 8 languages and dialects of the Philippines, Charmaine honors the ancient tradition of harana -- romantic courtship expressed through music. Normally performed exclusively by men (camped beneath a lady’s window), Charmaine is the first female to record these sacred songs, and the first artist to share these Filipino treasures with the rest of the world.
