It speaks well of U.S. Grammy Award nominators that this short release by a largely unknown singer, Julia Bullock, who calls herself simply a Classical Singer on all tracks except for Samuel Barber's Knoxville, Summer of 1915, Op. 24 (there, she's labeled a soprano), earned a Best Classical Solo Vocal Album nomination in 2023. It is especially impressive in that the album was recorded in 2020 but delayed in release by the COVID-19 pandemic. Short it may be, but it contains multitudes; Bullock's versatility is astonishing, from the beginning, where she rises out of the depths on the Oscar Brown, Jr. jazz classic Brown Baby, to the very end, where she delivers perfectly creditable English folk-pop in Sandy Denny's Who Knows Where the Time Goes? lt is quite a ride in between, with classical pieces from Barber and John Adams (a scorching excerpt from El Niño), a jazz song by Billy Taylor, an African American spiritual (City Called Heaven), and a song by the mysterious and unclassifiable Connie Converse, from whose song One by One the album's title is taken. If that is not enough, Bullock is accompanied mostly by Christian Reif (her husband) on piano but also offers two orchestral settings with the Philharmonia Orchestra of London, where she has been in residence. It all fits together; it is anywhere from strong to thrilling, and it marks the arrival of a major talent.
