Paradiso

Paradiso

2011 album from the New Zealand-born soprano. With a CV that belies her 23 years, having performed with Jose Carreras through to Andrea Bocelli and touring North America with Il Divo, Hayley is now realising her dream of working with master Italian composer and conductor Ennio Morricone, on her studio album Paradiso. Well known for his iconic film scores including The Good, the Bad and the Ugly and Once Upon a Time in the West, Morricone is regarded as one of the most prolific and influential composers of his era. Despite the 60-year-age difference and distinct language barrier, Westenra and Morricone struck up an incredible bond whilst recording Paradiso with Ennio's orchestra in Rome last summer.
