About Me

*Note-These Accapella Renditions are just preliminary vocal studies recorded a few days prior to my back surgery. I think I was even sitting down, for I could hardly stand, AND I was congested, so what can I say but here they are-audio samples of some work in the unfinished mode. By the way I NEVER sit when I sing, I have such a long torso...I am aware that the phrasing and breathing is completely off. I am telling you, I was doing this recording because wracked out of my mind with pain, I thought I was gonna die. ------------------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------- *Listen all the way thru and you may hear something meritus in the context of the work...Word of Warning-They are more RAW than RAW...There will new music to follow in the coming months. It is a strange business that we are in, for shoW! Try and not Kill me, for I offer you my throat. Thank you. Barbara----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ Bibit Magnus is a tall cool drink of water, in a glass or on the Rocks. She will astound you and leave you crying in your Beer or laughing in the Wilds. Whether portraying incredible likenesses of herself or her other 'selves' you will feel really feel that you understand the pain, the sweet merciful humor, and utter humaness, with all the frailties, reckonings, and command of a well hung army drill seargent (nope). A virtuosa! A songstress! Insane nonetheless! Singing deeply in throaty bass or a well pitched descant soprano, the variety of influence and creativity with this vocal artist will leave you wondering if you just heard what you just heard. Stay tuned for samples of this artists work, coming up soon on this sight. From Jazz scat to Beat boxing...A well set of pipes! She toots in many languages and styles!
