Lisbeth Scott is the co-lyricist and vocalist on the sound track for "The
Passion of the Christ." She can also be heard on the soundtracks of
the Shrek movies. Her work with Paul Schwartz on the "State of Grace"
still resonates somewhere in the back of my mind. Lisbeth is a very expressive
singer and an insightful songwriter. The song titled "Grace,"
on her new cd "Passionate Voice," is my favorite. The throaty
sounds of the Armenian duduk seem to penetrate to another level of being
and suspend Lisbeth's vocals in an ethereal space.
