Influences
Every great woman singer I've ever heard has contributed in some way to the shaping of my own voice. From the great classic singers of my childhood in the '50 like Ella Fitzgerald, Edith Piaf, Rosemary Clooney, Peggy Lee and Kate Smith, to the "girls with the guitars" in the 60's and 70's like Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Joni Mitchell, Mary Travers, Ronnie Gilbert, Sylvia Tyson, and most definitely, Odetta, my voice teacher back in 1975. That was the year I began to tour, and I discovered that there were other women out there doing what I was doing, and they inspired me to keep on going. Women like Rosalie Sorrels, Peggy Seeger, Jean Ritchie, Jean Redpath, Margaret MacArthur, Holly Near, Janice Ian, Kate Wolf, Mary McCaslin, Cindy Kallett, Sally Rogers and Bonnie Koloc. There are many others who continue to inspire and influence me, but it's my friends and trio partners Anne Hills & Cindy Mangsen, who have been the most important women along this path. It's an ever evolving process... a growing, stretching and reaching for something that isn't quite tangible. Learning from all these women has helped me be a better singer and performer, and I still learn from them every time I hear any one of them sing. -

Enjoy your week, Stay Strong. - Taquinho Noronha1 year ago
Priscilla Herdman my cherished:
Since last night when I ran into you here on My Space site I haven't stopped playing your beautiful repertoire. You almost made me forget about my old hero Don Mac Lean with your superb interpretation for "Vincent". I am sure your Cds "Baby" and "Into the stars" must be selling like popcorn nowadays worldwide. Must I confess I did get stuck on your song "Ideas are like stars". Your god-gifted voice, guitar and lovely cello chords made my sensitive country heart go boom and be brought to tears.
Dear God, I asked myself: do I really deserve having an accomplished musician such as you? After having waited almost my whole life through I lastly had my CD "Nas quebradas do sertão" released a couple of years ago. It is an unpretentious record abundant in provincial music, my very roots, however must I tell you I've been happy as a skylark with the sincere acknowledgment of my modest rural music which keep on coming from many friends abroad. I feel like sending you an original copy of that record for your own personal files should you accept one willingly. Please, get in touch and just let me know. I love you and your
impeccable art. Wishing you the very best things in life, this ardent admirer,
