Tag Archives: Heartfelt expression

I posted a video today of me singing Motherless Child. The song was spontaneously recorded on my iPhone as I was mourning the loss of a loved one. And then I created the musical arrangement and the video around it.

This old African American spiritual, written by Harry Burleigh and Harry Brown, is from the US Civil War era and depicts the anguish of slaves torn from their families, their homeland, and even their own identities.

For me the song also brings up strong emotions in relationship to missing my own mother, who passed away at 61. And it brings up feelings of deep loneliness and despair.

In just a few hours from now I’ll be giving my first Journey to Vocal Freedom webinar, where a key element is how to express ourselves authentically, from the deep of our heart and soul.

How do we uncover the fullness of our being? How do we express ourselves with no holds barred? How do we gain access to our most vulnerable selves and thereby also our most powerful and valuable assets?

Let me know if you want to join and I’ll shoot you a Zoom link. More info here.

Musically Yours,
Caroline
