The debut CD by Alma DeRojas reflects the three central elements of her identity: her faith, her love of music, and her Cuban heritage. A collection of classical and contemporary sacred music in English, Spanish, and Latin, the CD contains eleven selections.

It is Alma’s hope that "I Lift My Soul" inspires in those who hear her voice a sense of spiritual peace. In her own words, “I believe that my voice was given to me for a purpose, to provide the light of God through the power of song. As I sing in the last song on my CD, ‘in the light of the Lord we are healed.’ Thus to God I lift both my voice and my soul in the hope that all His children experience the healing light of the Lord.”

Through the assistance of Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Miami, part of the proceeds will go to Caritas Cuba, a social services agency run by the Catholic Church on the island.

ONLY AVAILABLE AS DOWNLOAD.





Classically-trained soprano, Alma DeRojas has just released her debut CD titled I Lift Up My Soul/Levanto mi alma. The CD is a anthology of worship songs that are both old and new. DeRojas has taken these much-loved songs and mixed them with just her beautiful voice and a piano. It makes the CD a moving classical collection. "I Lift My Soul" is special in other ways as it is a benefit CD for Caritas Cuba, the social service agency of the Catholic Church in Cuba. As the granddaughter of Cuban exiles, DeRojas has traveled to Cuba several times to conduct research on the Catholic Church there. She says the CD reflects the three central elements of her identity: her faith, her love of music, and her Cuban heritage. The title of the CD comes from the song “To You O Lord,” which is based on Psalm 25. It’s a wonderful song of giving one's self to God. “The Fragrance Of Christ “ is also based on a Psalm (Psalm 138:1-5). It talks about how our prayers are like incense in his sight. Songwriter Michael John Poirier’s “In The Light” is also used by DeRojas. “In the light of the Lord, we are healed...” the song tells us. DeRojas also uses classic songs like “Come Unto Him” (Handel), “Ave Maria” (Schubert) and “Panis Angelicus” (Franck). "I Lift Up My Soul/Levanto mi alma" is a beautiful CD for anyone who loves classical-style music.


 


FANTASTIC! 11/26/2008 -
Reviewer: Everything Carmel - DeKalb, IL

I have quickly become a fan of Ms. DeRojas. Her voice becomes prayer, and will lift your prayers, also.
