Comparisons with Charlotte Church are inevitable, yet 16-year-old New Zealand singer Hayley Westenra has her own distinctive sound. She has impeccably clear diction coupled with a gorgeous voice with a very wide range: her high notes in the Kate Bush hit "Wuthering Heights" are especially striking, and like Bush she is also a dancer, having performed with the Royal New Zealand Ballet. If there's a problem, it's that Pure doesn't have a focus to match Westenra's talent, the tracks spanning everything from "Amazing Grace" to a Maori lullaby ("Hine e Hine") to hybrid pieces adapted from Ravel ("Never Say Goodbye") and Vivaldi's Four Seasons ("River of Dreams"). Ultimately what this set does demonstrate is that whatever direction Westenra finally settles on, she has the ability to go to the very top. For now she is a young artist finding her way, and for many listeners the result is Pure magic. --Gary S Dalkin

Clarissa Albuquerqu (Brazil)
It's so great to see how Hayley's voice has improved since her debut album. She's had singing lessons and it was worth it. Her voice is so bright, pure, sweet... WONDERFUL.
I love her high notes and the way she makes everything sound peaceful.
What a beautiful voice! October 22, 2009
Marsha Greenway
I first heard her song Dark Waltz on Pandora radio and loved it! I bought this CD because I wanted to hear her other songs and am very pleased with my purchase. She performs a rendition of Amazing Grace that brought tears to my eyes! I would give anything to be able to sing like this! If you are looking for some refreshing music to relax to then I highly recommend this CD for you!

This young lady has one of the most beautiful voices. Clear and precise and the words and excellent choice of songs for her range and abilities
Great voice July 31, 2009
CanaDave (Canada)
If I could marry someone just for their voice, Hayley Westenra would be it. I really enjoyed the CD and Westenra's vocal quality. Dark Waltz has become one of my favorite ballroom songs to dance to. I would recommend this to any folk, opera, or lyrical music lovers.
An incredible voice June 3, 2009
Kevin Holihan
Hayley Westenra was recommended by a friend, and now I cannot stop listening to her. An incredibly pure, crystal clear voice that gives me shivers each time I hear her. I can't wait for the rest of the albums I ordered to arrive!
