Voices of Freedom

Voices of Freedom is the orchestra’s initial recording for the benefit of The City Lights Foundation. The album verbalizes the words of several great Americans whose statements and reflections have helped to shape and perpetuate our democracy into the 21st Century. The album aims to breathe new life into some amazing thoughts and ideas.
