about

Reneé Michele returned to the mountains of Vermont to once again record under the guidance of ace producers Will Ackerman (Grammy-winning founder of Windham Hill Records) and studio ace Tom Eaton (who also engineered, mixed and mastered the album). As a follow-up to her acclaimed 2014 release, Seasons of the Heart, The Space Within proves that sometimes sequels are every bit as good, if not better, than their predecessors.

Reneé's characteristic light touch on the keys, where nuance and tone are emphasized over drama and power, is on abundant display throughout the ten tracks. A mixture of moods and evocations unwinds across all the selections, but the music maintains a calming sensation, whether the gentle sombreness of the opening "My Angel," the haunting melody of "In the Mist," or the wistful reflective tone of "Life As a Cloud," Reneé Michele's goal is to capture the emotional essence of each composition and communicate it to the listener, which she does with ease.
