简介

During the Second World War, there was an urgent need for knitting. One official Red Cross guide was prefaced with the following statement: “Knitting is no longer a pleasant hobby. No one makes jokes about knitters now, for knitting is no joke. It is a great war industry, run by an unnumbered host of workers who ask no pay, who expect no profits… it is important war work.” This music (from the USA, Canada and Britain) has been essentially ‘lost’ since the war’s end. In "Sweeter in a Sweater", Melanie Gall has brought back 15 of these fascinating pieces. In these knitting songs are reflected the joys, hopes and fears of the women on the homefront. "Captivating." - Production Ottawa "Quirky, natural and engaging...amazing and heartfelt." - Vancouver Weekly "What a voice this young lady has! Clear as a bell with great diction and tone, she can belt with the best or go off into an obviously well-trained classical soprano. It is a very supple instrument and she sings all her songs with conviction and enthusiasm." - Edmonton Sun "Gall’s voice is absolutely divine. Sweet and nostalgic, she’s like a Disney princess from the Lower East Side." - Uptown Magazine "One of the most amazing voices I've ever heard." - Ignite 107
