O’s Notes: Joan has a soft rich voice that flows over the notes of pianist Frank Williams. This is Joan’s third recording, each with a definitive purpose. It is her first duo recording and the selection of Williams as a partner is an excellent choice. He is a polished musician and educator with over twenty years of experience. Together they share Quiet Conversations, a set of ten selections that are intimate verses between each other. The audience is fortunate to have the chance to listen in! We found the two Watson-Jones originals to stand out, especially the bluesy “Yes Dear”.
