Reflecting the mythical traditions of Brazil her lyrics on the second track "Candle in the Sand" are about Yemaja (Goddess of the Sea) festivities: "We sat and watched, The Sea drew the line ,Cool waters, memories in time. The shifting sands, like an hour glass, How quickly this time has passed. We tossed a flower in to the sea We lit a candle in the sand, The flame that burned, still speaks to me, Brings memories of that land."

"Day of the Dead" features the Brazilian instrument the Birimbal which Emily has skilfully and uniquely set with the 'cello, she has also integrated location recordings of a procession of people made on the Day of the Dead. Manasses the acclaimed Brazilian guitarist from the North East of Brazil plays 12 string guitar.

"Realised Dream" is another song of significance as it commences with a child's plaintive voice singing in Portuguese. Emily made this recording when she was giving workshops at a music school for children who work in the sugar cane plantations.

Emily has created a production which has a ambient/world music resonance. The music is extraordinarily calming perhaps due to the way Emily multi tracks the 'cello and uses the instrument in a unique way to accompany her vocal lines.

Reviews:
"It's the cello though that ties everything together and makes this whole album impossible to ignore... Still, if you need to escape into music that is deep, thoughtful and also lifts your spirits then look no further than Emily Burridge".
European Progressive Rock Reviews.

"In her compositions, Emily is capable of gathering, in a truly spontaneous way, elements derived from her Classical upbringing, together with those coming from the ethnic people she has lived with."
