Mary,
I love Bel Canto! Their first album is called _White-out
conditions_ and is somewhat difficult to find. (At least it was
for me.) Their second album is called _Birds of passage_ and is,
in my opinion, their best. If you liked _Shimmering..._ then
find _Birds..._ For their first two albums they were a trio.
_Shimmering warm & bright_ is their 3rd and most recent album,
and they have pared down to a duo. I don't know about any
plans for a new album. Enjoy!
Michael
