Looks like a great album. Although I gather the likes of HMV and Amazon will be selling the album, Rebecca does rather better out of it if you buy it from her own website with Richard linked to above. There is a lot of other interesting stuff available on Rebecca's website too. I hope to see Rebecca live next week.

Hello Martin D!  Rebecca recorded the album in Prague last year. She made this interesting video diary of her experiences there: Richard  |

Thanks for that Richard. I hadn't seen it. The more I see and hear of Rebecca the more I like her.

I'm impressed with her. She seems to have the ideal voice for crossover and I've been listening to clips from her on Soundcloud. soundcloud.com/rebeccanewmansoprano/album-preview-clips-dare-toUnfortunately her album is coming out at a time when other singers are being more heavily promoted due to the greater resources of their management and record companies and the greed of their owner, if truth be told.  |

Well, lets put it this way. I intend to buy Rebeccas album, hopefully at Songbirds since she might sign it for me. I will not be buying Laura's new album.

This is the choral version of "Heroes to the World" from Rebecca Newman's YouTube channel: I believe that version is only on the special edition of 'Dare to Dream'.  Richard |

The Special Edition is clearly the one to have!

It's good to see so much interest in Rebecca Newman's new album. It should be a big hit when it's released in two weeks time, but meanwhile keep an eye on her Facebook page for further samples. www.facebook.com/rebeccanewmansopranoThis isn't on the album, but here's Rebecca singing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" on a windy day in York, 5 July 2014: Richard |

I will definitely be asking for her album for my birthday- will mean I will have to wait until October unfortunately but that's not that far off now haha.

Hello Sing! Blake and Rebecca Newman are singing "The Prayer" by David Foster, and the track is also on Rebecca's album 'Dare to Dream'. Here's the official music video for the non-choral version of "Heroes to the World": That version is on both editions of 'Dare to Dream'.  Richard |
