Hi, I'm Cindy. In May '05 I graduated from the University of Michigan with my Master's of Music in voice. Here's some music from my grad school audition cd (11/02), undergrad senior recital (4/03), and Master's recital (4/05). It's a measure of progress if nothing else. Enjoy! I'm now a Lecturer in music at Iowa State University and hopefully planning another recital soon... hopefully more songs to come!

Lyrics
The element of air was out of hand. The rush of wind ripped off their tender leaves And flung them in confusion on the land. We waited for the first rain in the eaves. The chaos grew as hour by hour the light Decreased beneath an undivided sky. Our pupils widened with unnatural night, But still the road and dusty field kept dry. The rain stayed in its cloud; full dark came near; The wind lay motionless in the long grass. The veins within our hands betrayed our fear. What we had hoped for had not come to pass.
