O.k.Here's the retro album of all time.Now I'm not talking about Lenny Kavitz retro,I'm talking about The Beatles,Crosby-Stills and Nash,The Doors,The Monkees,Jimi Hendrix and all that San Fransico sound retro.So if you're tired of the rap,grunge,metal,hip-hop and all the other scenes that are going on now(not that there's anything wrong with that music)and you wanna just get your soul free again,put this record on,sit back and fade away...well,atleast for a little while.Finally,someone got it right.

5 out of 5 stars Spriited Blending of Voices.......2000-08-29

This exciting collection is parimarily of Russian folk songs, though there are some actual compositions by Russian composers, such as Glinka and Rimsky-Korsakov. In listening to these beautiful recordings, if you can think past the regime, which the Red Army represented, and concentrate upon the artistic performances which the individuals and the group present, you should have no difficulty enjoying the fine quality present on this CD.

4 out of 5 stars Russian folk songs sung with passion.......1999-06-06

The little bit of this CD that I heard sounded just like I expected it to . . . sung with feeling and passion. The red army chorus has been singing for over 50 years and are as good a chorus as you will find anywhere. It was a pleasure to hear songs that I remember from my youth.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Non-Christmas Christmas Album.......2005-12-17

None of this is actual Christmas music, but, besides its other virtues and interest for what it *is*, it all *sounds* like Christmas music. In that way Midnight Sun fills Eno's definition of ambient music: it is rewarding both close up and in the background. And of course the background is where everyone plays Christmas music.

Play the first clip to the end, up to the point where it breaks into a sort of Delta blues. (I had to save the RealAudio file to disk, rename it to something.ram and start it manually.)

5 out of 5 stars Northernness!.......2002-04-03

Listening to this wonderful music from Ensemble Polaris, I cannot help but think that C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien would have loved it. This is "Northernness" personified in music. This is musical greatness. I hope that Ensemble Polaris makes more music, and soon. If nothing else, this disc deserves to be heard by as many people as possible.

5 out of 5 stars I dare you not to love this music.......2000-12-22

The Grand Poobah of Ragamuffins, Brennan Manning, reminds us to "think big about God." So why not think big about music? After all, God has created music.

Still, as I engaged in that perpetual ritualistic struggle familiar to all music fans (trying to peel off the plastic wrapping), I thought to myself: "Traditional Nordic Melodies??? I know Dorian's a great label...but TRADITIONAL NORDIC MELODIES???"

Then I placed it in my CD player and pushed play...

Take my advice friends--this is a GREAT recording! Dorian has done it again. I dare you not to love this music. From the very first song, "Mandom, mod och morska man," I knew this would be one of my all time favorite recordings. It is.

This music is inventive. This music is full of passion. This music made me like the clarinet...an instrument that I've despised since my days in middle school.

Each song is a mini-masterpiece. My three favorite songs are probably the first and last tracks as well as "Halb Sirp"--a song about a woman who is frustrated with trying to harvest with a poorly made sickle. Sarah Granskou's vocals make the song outstanding. The instrumental playing is top rate throughout the whole disc.

I urge you to get a copy of "Midnight Sun: Traditional Nordic Melodies" today. It is outstanding.

5 out of 5 stars Perfect blend of folk and early music.......2000-07-12

Midnight Sun by Ens. Polaris is one of the best discs that I have heard in a long time. The tunes are from the Scandinavian countries and Estonia, Scotland, and Canada. But the sound is very unique--a blend of many early and world music traditions. The wonder of the disc is that each song receives a unique treatment and arrangement that an ensemble of various instruments (from jews harp, hurdy-gurdy, and clarinet to you name it!) can create--each arrangement seems so perfectly matched to nuances of each song. The result is incredible variety in all respects and a collection of sounds that is strongly rhythmic or gorgeously melodic-- predominantly an early instrumental music sound, but with various influences of celtic, klezmer, middle eastern and blues! Plus there are six haunting vocals by two guest female vocalists. I'm hoping for more great stuff from this group.
