Le Canto (English: I'm Singing) is the first Spanish language album by Kari Jobe. It is the Spanish version of Kari Jobe, but features two songs not included on the English version of the album. Le Canto was released on April 28, 2009.[1] [2] Le Canto won a Dove Award in the category Spanish Album of the Year at the 41st GMA Dove Awards.

Critical reception

Andree Farias from AllMusic said, "If one didn't know a word of Spanish, Kari Jobe's Le Canto would sound exactly like what it is: the Spanish-language version of her wildly popular self-titled debut." He described the translations as "often clunky, verbatim renditions", but that "at least she sings the heck out of the songs; the purity and conviction in her voice remain her strongest suit".[3]

Track listing

Note: These songs are Spanish-language translations of Kari Jobe songs in English. The original English-language song is listed next to each title.
