Kelly Hall Tompkins - Forgotten Voices: A Song Cycle for Voices and Strings | Classical Music CD for Relaxation & Meditation

Multi-award-winning violinist Kelly Hall-Tompkins is the entrepreneurial spirit behind Music Kitchen, the pioneering project that brings top classical music and musicians into homeless shelters, sharing the inspirational, therapeutic, and uplifting power of music with those experiencing homelessness. Forgotten Voices is a song cycle commissioned by Music Kitchen–Food for the Soul, with support from Carnegie Hall, comprising works by 15 of today’s foremost composers. The works feature evocative and poignant texts by homeless-shelter clients. Forgotten Voices premiered to a sold-out Carnegie Hall audience in March 2022 and inspired a short film that has won multiple awards at the Los Angeles Documentary Film Festival and Berlin Indie Film Festival.
