This CD represents Jousha’s life long career dream of recording a CD of instrumental and vocal duets with an amazing group of musicians.

I found this CD to be calming and soothing… for those times where you want to soak in the tub, or just unwind after a very long, hard day. Or prefect for that Home Date you planned with your Husband this upcoming weekend. My favorite song was the Cinema Paradiso!
