Compositionally, the overarching style is one of charismatic sentiment, accented by the bright timbre of Lacroix's piano. The work is altogether lovely and a wonderful introduction to \"Susannah's Lullaby (This is a Face of Love),\" and \"Language of a Rose,\" the first two art songs included on the album. \"Moyi mamij\" [For My Mother] is an exquisite quartet that brings a tear to the eye of anyone who has ever felt a mother's love. In that sentiment, let's hope that Princes William and Harry will have the opportunity to hear Estelle's \"Qu'est-ce que c'est la vie? [What is life?]\" a homage to \"The People's Princess,\" for which Estelle wrote not only the music, but the French text. In \"Abwoon d'bwashmaya\" [Aramaic Lord's Prayer], Estelle's writing is reverent and prayerful - blending perfectly the melodic sonorities of the soprano voice and the cello. Estelle showcases her choral writing with the inclusion of four works: \"Water Canticle (For Margaret Trudeau),\" \"La chanson de ton coeur\" [The Song of Your Heart], \"Child of the Manger,\" and \"Song for Abwoon.\" Estelle, who once put music aside to appease her parents by studying psychology and accounting instead, is now a well-respected composer in Canada. She relates, \"When you see people around the world are listening to and loving your songs, you know composing is something you should take seriously.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
