Amour: Les Chansons que j’aime
Releasing in Fall 2026
Kirstin’s desire to share the songs she has come to love best seems only to grow with the passing of time, and the moment is ripe to offer this next album from the culture that has been such a huge part of her life for more than two decades. Having traveled the world to perform the eponymous French-singing femme fatale, Carmen, Kirstin felt it the perfect time to bring forth a collection of her all-time favorite French love songs.
Complete with a collaboration with her dear friend, the celebrated pianist Paolo André Gualdi, each piece on this album is a cherished gem from Kirstin’s personal musical jewel box, beloved throughout her career.
Stay tuned for this greatly anticipated release in the fall of 2026!
