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.

4 out of 5 stars Spirituals Masterpiece.......2007-01-22

This is a northern European choir doing southern negro spirituals. Sounds odd but it is one of the best that I have heard. The best single is "Ain't Got Time To Die".

5 out of 5 stars A winner from start to finish.......2000-11-22

A cyberfriend from the N. Y. Times Classical Music Forum, an American ex-patriot living in Sweden, knowing my liking for the music of Paul Winter, particularly his sax/organ duets with Paul Halley, recommended this Anders Paulsson album. His reasoning was straightforward: This unique and totally fresh album includes three such duets: Lullaby for Joe Rubin, Anthem for the Homeless, and Toccata in D, all written by Paulsson.They are brilliant, and brilliantly performed, in a style that is quite unlike the "Cathedral blues" style of Winter and Halley, now celebrating the 20th year of their collaboration.

Paulsson is an instrumentalist on this horn the likes of which I don't believe I've ever heard. I consider myself a "student" of Paulsson's instrument, thanks to Winter, and am therefore familiar with other European soprano saxophonists such as Jan Garbarek and John Harle. But I was totally unprepared for Paulsson's technique, which is, in a word, staggering. While I continue to prefer Paul Winter's way with phrasing and improvisation, and, most particularly, embrochure and tone quality, I cheerfully concede that Anders Paulsson may well be the most proficient technician of this often-misplayed instrument. (Think "Kenny G" to get my point.) Pride of place in these three duets clearly goes to Toccata in D, Paulsson's Op. 20, a tour de force for him and Andrew Canning on organ.

But the album title is about singing, and singing of some well-known and not-so-well-known spirituals is the main focus of the album. And the singing is simply drop-dead gorgeous, by the St. Jacob's Chamber Choir of Stockholm. Led for more than fifteen years by Gary Graden, another American ex-patriot, their voices, and their clear English diction, might well have come from a gospel choir in these United States. The opening track, Deep River, is worth the cost of the album by itself.

Approximately in the middle of the album is a cantata in seven parts entitled Feet of Jesus, based on texts by Langston Hughes, the great African-American "blues poet" of the Harlem Renaissance. Written by Judith Cloud, a composer from Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, this cantata is the centerpiece and the true highlight of the album, notwithstanding all the good points already mentioned about both the spirituals and Paulsson's own compositions and duets. Very moving; beautifully done.

In preparing this review, I of course had the opportunity to read Professor Cloud's comments about her composition and its inspiration, written elsewhere on this album page. It's a small world indeed when one reads that a large part of her inspiration came from a performance by Anders Paulsson that she had earlier heard in the marvelous acoustic space of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York, where Paul Winter is the principal artist in residence.

I thank my American friend living in Sweden for bringing this terrific album to my attention. Otherwise, I might well have missed it completely. Here's hoping that my thoughts on it will work the same wonders on you that the music has on me.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful.......1999-09-01

This is no easy listening or spectacular commercial gospel. But this music is so warm and heartfelt it really touches you deep inside. Astonishing work by one of the best choirs in the world.

5 out of 5 stars I give this recording my highest recommendation!.......1999-05-26

Gary Graden's Kammarkör proves, again, the power of music to soothe the spirit and inspire the soul. "Spiritual" not just as it evokes the rich repertoire of African-American song, this recording moves the spirit in contemporary ways from Anders Paulsson's plaintive soprano sax to John Williams's (baritone) urgent rendition of "Before the Marvel of the Night" and the concluding South African "Honono." Williams joins Marymal Holmes (soprano) in an exquisitely beautiful rendition of "Bright Morning Stars" also arranged by Paulsson. Judith Cloud's "Feet of Jesus" is, from warm saxophone introduction to dramatic close, an elegant addition to American spiritual music. Cloud sets the Langston Hughes poem perfectly. Her spirited "Shout" and "Fire" complement a loving "Gather up in the arms of your pity the sick, the depraved, the desperate, the tired...." reaching the innermost recesses of the spirit and pulling from it something redeeming of humankind. The recording techniques are first-rate. To those who expect not only professional technique, but also heartfelt music, put this CD in your player and you'll never take it out!
