Reviews of "Believe in Spring"

"Congratulations, Janet, on your new CD 'Believe in Spring.' I have just been listening to the 2 tracks you have here, 'Say It Over and Over Again' and 'Just in Time.' Beautiful, heartfelt and swinging renditions of timeless songs that take us on a musical and emotional journey. Wonderfully played by the musicians accompanying and fabulously sung by Janet Stevenson. I am now going to get the CD!!"

     – Anita Wardell: Winner BBC Best of Jazz, 2006 

“I really like and appreciate your ballad lyric interpretations. You know how to get into a lyric and not just sing "hip" stuff to be cool… Nice arrangements, great players, and a stellar choice of material… My favorite tracks are 4 & 10. Bravo, not the easiest tunes to vocalize.” 

      – Ted Howe: composer, pianist & jazz educator 

"I have enjoyed your new CD very much…the cover, song choices, mood of the CD. are all so nice - you sound very relaxed too. Congratulations.”
