In August of 2007, Ms. Houston is featured on a new Naxos release of orchestral works by composer Dan Locklair. She sings a triptych for soprano and string orchestra titled Lairs of Soundings, which is based upon texts by Northwest poet, Ursula LeGuin. The work was recorded last fall with the Slovak Radio Radio Orchestra in Bratislava , Slovakia , with Kirk Trevor conducting. Also in the fall of 2007, a recording for Zimbel Records titled Songs of the Cotton Grass features Ms. Houston with oboist Shannon Spicciati performing the cycle of the same name by composer Hilary Tann. In January 2006, Ms. Houston released a new recording of world premieres by living composers titled The Shining Place (Elmgrove). Other recordings on Elmgrove include So Great a Joy 2001, Living Mysteries 2002, and So Much Beauty 2004. Also in 2004, her work was featured in two 12 minute works for soprano on the Albany Records release Chamber Works of Dan Locklair.
