This week on the program, we complete our two-part focus on the vox humana. It is amazing how the human voice can convey so much emotion when sung a capella. We’ll hear selections from The Early Mays, Susan Pepper, Ewan MacColl, Craig Johnson, David Crosby, Joni Mitchell and many more. Just the voice … this week on The Sing Out! Radio Magazine.
