COVID-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to many events being cancelled or postponed. Emma had the following events in her agenda until mid-May.
In the meanwhile, it is possible to hear her singing in her new albums “Echoes of War” and “Fantasia,” both of which are available on Spotify, Apple Music, and to purchase as CDs in stores such as Amazon and Floating World Records (see links).
She hopes that all her readers will stay safe and well during these uncertain times.
