In touch with the world ... at home on the High Plains

Mary Chapin Carpenter's 'Songs From The Movie' this week on High Plains Morning

Mary Chapin Carpenter's new release is a re-invention of 10 of her classic songs, newly recorded with a 63 piece orchestra and a 15 member choir.  

In talking about the process, Carpenter says “Singing with an orchestra is very different from singing with a band. I had to learn to ride the enormous wave of sound an orchestra produces but not over sing at the same time. Finding a quiet voice while still conveying strength was the way in.”

We will listen to 'Songs From The Movie' this week on High Plains Morning.

Tune in every Saturday night at 7pm CT for a two-hour mix that could only come from the man himself.
