5 out of 5 stars a voice teacher and early music fan.......2007-02-09

'The HYMN-a word derived from the Greek 'hymnos'-has been defined as 'a term of unknown origin applied from ancient times to a wide variety of songs in honor of gods, heroes or notable men.'
The founder of English hymnody is Isaac Watts (1674-1748), whose work in reforming congregational song texts culminated in the publication of his 'Hymns and Spiritual Songs' in 1707. Watts' collection was as complete and comprehensive a set of hymns as had ever been proposed for English worship and it raised the profile of the hymn sufficiently to overcome the prevailing psalmody. The great flowering period of English hymnody began with the work of the Methodist hymn-writers John Wesley (1703-1791) and his brother Charles (1707-1788). The Wesleys gave great prominence to hymns within their Methodist worship and published many books.
The modern hymn book is a collection of hymns drawn from various times and places. This most accomplished recording by St. Paul's Cathedral Choir presents 16 well-loved hymns from 'The New English Hymnal'. A great number of the hymns, which originate from many different eras and traditions, are given an extra musical dimension by John Scott's original descants and thrilling brass arrangements.
Over the years, I have found myself purchasing mostly the recordings of English choirs. They seem to have incredible vocal skills, perfectly executed phrases, flawless diction and some unidentifiable ingredient that makes them very appealing to hear. Of course, I personally enjoy the all male choirs sound; boy sopranos and male altos make the difference. This is a very appealing group of hymns!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Hymns for every one.......2002-12-01

As I have said already..I am from espiscopal church..these my songs are well know by me...these songs give encouragement when it seems that all hope is lost..these are tunes that are well received....they are also very simple for the every day person to gain strength from day to day..they will become your daily prayer.....

5 out of 5 stars Super Praise!.......2000-06-10

Praise The Lord offers the listener traditional hymns in the English/British tradition. the clarity of the voices make it possible for the listener to follow the words distinctly. The organ soars as accompaniment. the CD provides organ and choral quality for the novice and the experienced musician.

4 out of 5 stars Native and New Age well blended.......2002-12-05

Though the two "Sacred Spirit" CD's continue to be my favorite AmerInd music, this one is almost equally well done. Spotted Eagle's flute provides the leading motif on all the tracks, joined by muted drums, traditional chant (as in "Bii'saao'beh" and "Brother, Father, Warrior, Son"), and contemporary European instruments. Most are slow and contemplative, but "House Made of Dawnlight" makes me imagine dancers moving lightly over grass (perhaps Native pixies, if there are such things), and "Little Ritual," with its deep-toned male-chorus chanting, sounds like just that. I'll be looking for more CD's by this artist.

5 out of 5 stars Very relaxing, I like the whole CD.......2002-08-15

I had been looking for native american chants and also some soothing music to listen to. Wandering around the store looking at covers wasn't any help. I happened upon this CD and with the aid of other reviewers here and also being able to listen to parts of a few songs here, decided to buy. I enjoy the entire CD (rare for me). I've found that I don't want a whole CD of chants now. This CD shouldn't offend anyone's ears, it is so easy to listen to.

5 out of 5 stars Music that aids Your journey........2001-04-29

Douglas Spotted Eagles' Closer to Far Away album is one filled with music that aids one on their journey, whether it be a healing journey, one of introspection, one of dreaming or any other personal journey. His music strikes a chord and keeps on striking deeper and deeper if you open yourself up to it.

4 out of 5 stars Less vocals and chants.......2000-03-31

The instrumental music is beautiful! However, clients at my spa find the vocals and chants a little unsettling during massage treatments. As part Native American, I truly appreciate this artist's music. Keep up the excellent work, and please produce an entirely instrumental CD so I can play it all day at my business.

5 out of 5 stars Another Achievement!.......1999-12-04

What can you say about Douglas Spotted Eagle and his music, soulful, moving, touching. I have been enjoying Native American music for years now, and this fine musician is on the top of all the music I have collected. His CD "Pray" is probably the only other CD that surpasses this one. If you love Native American music, or simply great soul food music, try Douglas Spotted Eagle in your diet.

5 out of 5 stars The picture.......2006-12-11

I haven't purchased the CD but the picture of the inside of a church on the cover is not of a British church, like one would assume since it says its a recording of British choirs. This picture is of Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Just thought i'd let you know. I'll be honest; I'm one to judge things by it's cover and if the company took such care to choose a 'British' church for their British choir CD, I'm willing to bet the music is equally well selected... I'm being sarcastic. But I gave the product 5 stars because I didn't want to hurt its ratings just because i'm cynical. But check out the church if you're ever in Montreal, it's truly beautiful... here I'm not being sarcastic.
