Christeena Riggs and David Osmond: Babylight - Songs of Everlasting Joy

Producers/writers Clive Romney and Linda Coltrin want mother and baby to have precious face-to-face Morning time, Day Time, and Evening Time as they share these songs. Five songs are designed as finger plays for interactive time, and Daddy, Sibling and Grandparent time is encouraged. Many of the melodies were composed by great classical masters, such as Bach, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Dvorak, Haydn, and Chopin. Christeena Riggs made her Broadway debut in Les Miserables as Eponine and later played the role of Cosette, making her the only young woman in history to perform both roles on Broadway. Most recently Christeena performed as Glinda in the National Touring Company of Wicked. David Osmond, the fourth son of Alan Osmond of the Osmond Brothers, began his career at four years of age as lead singer of the Osmond Second Generation. He stepped into the role of Joseph in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat for his Uncle Donny and continued as Joseph on the national tour. Jon Schmidt’s music is equal parts classical, contemporary and rock and roll, redefining the New Age genre. With over 3 million downloaded songs, seven highly popular albums, seven volumes of original piano and a highly rated television special, Jon's fan base defies demographics. Child performers include Isaac Murdock, three years old when Babylight was recorded; and Alex Brown, whose singing can be heard on Disney's Nemo attraction in Orlando, and on Land Before Time toys. Alex is one of the stars of the PBS and DVD series Signing Time. Hannah Huber (age 9) has performed with the International Children’s™ Choir (ICCS) for four years.
