“ The songs are just great examples of thinking positively, in an environment of trust, empathizing with others and taking a deeply personal and collective musical journey”
CREATING MUSIC FOR HEALING
“The way I sound on the CD gives me satisfaction
and joy because, although it wasn’t easy to produce this recording, the final product was worth the effort!”
In 2015 she collaborated with the members Creative Works Studio to create the album Coming Out of Darknes , also produced by Don Kerr. Isabel founded Creative Works Studio in Toronto to help people with mental health and addiction issues find creative self expression through music and visual arts. Fryszberg composed the music and facilitated group lyric writing to express and give voice to the members in this community who have never sung or written music before.
ALBUM: HEARTS AND ARROWS
In 2014 Isabel released her own debut album of original songs, country and folk inspired called, Hearts and Arrows supported by an ace band, Isabel & The Uncommons produced by Don Kerr.
Isabel was the founding member together with Lenka Lichtenberg, and one of the lead singers of award winning klezmer-swing sextet, Sisters of Sheynville, (2004-2011). Her parents were both Polish-Jewish immigrants and Yiddish was Fryszberg's first languge. The band toured and played festivals in Poland, San Francisco, Washington, Vancouver, to Montreal and acquired the Canadian Folk Music Award (2008) for Vocal Group of The Year for their album, Sheynville Express.
