Editorial Reviews
Oakland Tribune, Dec. 1st, 1998
AVA states "Music is about communication. Music is about building bridges. You can't put limits on expression, and that's what this album is about for me....My hope is that this album pushed the envelope. That people can relate to it, and it lets them know and see that they don't have to get caught up in a format. Experiment. Get in touch with your own ways of self-expression. I wanted this album to be something people would like, but even if they don't, I'll always have it. When I'm old or dead I want my grandchildren to be able to hear it and for me to be proud of it. Hopefully, it's like a tattoo you still want when you're old."
Product Description
VISION ON THE RISE, described as a "Definately once in a millennium CD," is a wonderfully-daring uniquely-eclectic blend of 17 original tracks that range immeasureably in style from folk-jazz, broadway-rock, a couple rap numbers, to some cleverly enigmatic nuances in between. (Track 18 is AVA's trademark ending to shows and CDs--a powerfully-exquisite operatic aria.) Instrumentation includes piano, sax, flute, clarinet, bass, drums, percussion, guitar, backup vocals, and a song with kids.
With music that is hauntingly mesmerizing, spiritual, satirical, personally and politically inspirational, bittersweet, sensual, earthy, and downright extraordinary, this self-produced VISION ON THE RISE is a successful complex of unconventional at it's finest.
Buyer response has included "Your voice and music are beyond incredible! Get out there, or you're doing yourself and the world a disservice!" "I've got chills!" "It's so unique!" "Why aren't you number one yet? You should be?" People have also said "What the heck is this stuff!?"
