Vandana Vishwas’s debut album (Meera–The Lover) consisted of musical interpretations of poems by 16th-century mystic Meera Bai. For her sophomore effort, the singer has expanded her range both musically and lyrically to include works by Mirza Ghalib and Jigar Muradabadi, as well as specially-commissioned lyrics by her husband, Vishwas Thoke. Her musical palette now includes elements of jazz and pop music as well, though her singing style remains deeply rooted in Indian tradition. The result is less tightly focused than her debut, but also more colorful and at times surprising. And her voice is a joy to hear on every track.
