5 out of 5 stars Powerful Live Worship.......2007-06-28

The very power of this album lies in its being recorded while brother Matt was worshiping his heart out . . . LIVE. He is very passionate and in the moment, and from the background response of the audience, it's evident that they were on board with him. Favorite songs are Blessed Be Your Name, The Heart Of Worship, Holy Moment, Let My Words Be Few, and I Will Offer Up My Life. My sister played this many, many times, and for months it seemed like I got something new to encourage me every time. If you buy one new Christian CD this year, let it be this one!

5 out of 5 stars GREAT CD!!.......2007-06-08

I love this CD. It arrived quickly, and was in good condition. I would definitely buy from this vendor again.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Live Worship Album.......2007-05-04

I like a lot of worship leaders out there, Chris Tomlin, Charlie Hall, David Crowder to name a few. However, I have come to love Matt Redman, and he is by far my favorite worship leader out there. Every album that he has put out is stellar, and Blessed Be Your Name is spectacular for a live event. The vocals are easy to hear and understand, while on other live albums they sometimes seem outdone by the crowd noise or too much bass. In some cases where the vocals are outstanding, the music is subdued. Not here. Each instrument is elegantly showcased. Standout tracks on this disk would have to be the title track, "Holy Moment", "Undignified", "Facedown", and my favorite Redman track of all time, "Better is One Day". If you like live music and worship music, this album is for you.

5 out of 5 stars Great..........2007-05-01

You can't go wrong with a Matt Redman cd. It is filled with powerful worship songs that keep you praising God all day!

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2006-11-12

Matt does such a great job of worship on this cd. It is a live album but recorded in high fidelity and sounds great. He plays all the best songs and in such a fantastic way.

If I do make it to heaven, I don't know what it will look like, but I do know what it will sound like - listen to the vocals in the Second Movement: Andante . They are worth the price of the whole CD.......
a miracle, really.

5 out of 5 stars my opinion.......2007-08-01

This recording was reccomended somewhere as being even better than the newer version with Bryn Terfel and Renee Fleming - it really is tops, I think. Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau is as lyrical as ever. And the other soloists are also breathtaking.

4 out of 5 stars Wonderful, but not my first choice.......2007-04-07

I believe this was the first recording of Elijah in English that used an "international" conductor and some international singers. Fruhbeck gives a good, dramatic sweep to the piece, with some wonderful dramatic moments. This is an old fashioned performance, with only a solo quartet, and if there is a semi-chorus, I can't tell the difference. This means that the soprano is the Widow, and an Angel, the mezzo the Angel and Queen Jezabel, etc. You really should have a libretto, but you don't get one at this price.
Fischer-Dieskau roughens up his voice for the role, and therein lies a problem. The voice spreads and his diction suffers because of it; that and his unidiomatic pronounciation, with far too many rolled "r"s. He does the drama well, but what works well in lieder works here less well on the large scale. Odd, given his success as on opera singer (check out his Iago), that here he frequently comes off blustery.
Dame Gwyneth Jones belies her reputation and gives a contolled, dramatic performance, using her "edge" to advantage in "Hear Ye, Israel". Gedda's diction is amazing, with exactly the right color for this literature, and projecting a little more blood than an English tenor.
Dame Janet Baker is my star in this performance. Dramatic, heart-rending when need be, and in wonderful voice. She'll chill your blood when she tells the people of Baal to "slaughter him, do what he hath done!".
And as for the people of Baal, the Philharmonia Chorus is wonderful. Incisive and dramatic, with beautiful tone. I could do without the trick of the boy choir for "Lift Thine Eyes", and I miss the small ensembles, but all in all a fine performance, and good recording, circa 1968.
First choice in English, Daniels/Terfel: better Elijah in Terfel, better recording, more authentic orchestra, small vocal ensembles (as per the score) but inferior women (including Fleming: beautiful tone, but where's her head?). In German, it's Sawallisch/Adam all the way.
But if you're singing Elijah, and have a score, this is a good choice.

5 out of 5 stars THE BEST recording of the BEST oratorio ever..........2006-08-15

Okay, I'm gonna admit I'm biased- I first sung in the chorus of Elijah when I was 14 and it made a BIG impression on me!
This recording is in every way wonderful. Starting with Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau. He IS Elijah to me. His singing is perfection. He has amazing phrasing and his diction makes it possible to understand the lovely, inspired libretto to this heavenly music. There are so many pieces that are ephemeral, but a couple of my favorites are: #14, Lord God of Abraham and #37, For the Mountains shall Depart. Dieskau does a great job of what I think of as compassionate, heartfelt singing. His interpretation sounds like the voice of God himself. It has a quality of kindness and yet he sounds just as convincing reprimanding the people of Baal. He is the true highlight of this recording.

That said, the rest of the cast is wonderful as well. Gwyneth Jones has a lovely, silvery voice that has a clarion bell-like tone that rings over the large orchestra with ease. She has occasional "misfire" but is a consistent performer. Dame Janet Baker and Nicolai Gedda both perform at a consistently lovely level. The orchestra and chorus are both wonderful. #15, Cast thy Burden upon the Lord, #32 He that Shall Endure to the End, and #38 Then Did Elijah are all highlights.

All said, for me the main reason to get this recording is Dieskau's Elijah- after all, he's the main character. But don't forget the lovely music. This story is exciting and passionate and sacred all at the same time. For me, it's the best oratorio that has a moving story and great music too.

4 out of 5 stars Too bad there are so few recordings of Elijah.......2006-07-03

This is a good recording of an oratorio that deserves more attention. The chorus and soloists are very good--I just wish Fischer-Diskau wouldn't slide around so much in singing the title part!

    5 out of 5 stars The Price Club.......2005-04-28

    "I am here," said Leontyne Price when interviewed as she opened the new Metropolitan Opera with Samuel Barber's underrated ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA, "and you will know that I am the best and will hear me. The color of my skin or the kink of my hair or the spread of my mouth has nothing to do with what you are listening to." Back in the 1960s Price was one of the greatest divas in all of opera, and it wasn't just her voice but her magnificent stage presence, combined with her social activism. All of the above come into play in this collection of secular songs and ditties, some of them traditional plantation chanties and others, art songs and a scattering of pop music. And some of them, like Gershwin's "Summertime," cross the ever-permeable boundaries between Broadway and classical. These recordings were made at different times in Price's career, and her voice, while always angelic, has different shadings and reaches a different range of timbre in each separate recording date, but there is no question that, as time goes by, she is able to impart a richness of life experience noticeably absent from some of her earlier work.

    "Ave Maria" sounds heavenly no matter which way you slice it, and as for "I Wonder As I Wander," it brings tears to your eyes. If you have a heart that's beating you will be moved by this rendition. "Ein feste Burg" is pretty strong, but Price seems more comfortable with the traditional spirituals, though perhaps it is the slightly off-kilter sounds of the Ambrosian Singers (what a name) who back her up on many of these tracks, that detract slightly from the experience. Compare "Lead Kindly Light" for a clear sense of what constitutes authority vs. what is a wee bit overproduced. If you had this compilation, and perhaps one of Leontyne Price's Christmas albums, you could attain nirvana any time you wanted to, just flip a switch and close your eyes, let her lift you up on wings of song.

    5 out of 5 stars A living legend.......2005-03-10

    Leontyne Price (still alive) and already passing into immortality amongst vocal artists, both classical and popular. Leontyne Price stands at the pinnacle of her classical art, but those who only know her work in La Forza del destino or the Verdi Requiem are in for a heart rending treat with this album where Leontyne Price goes home to her roots in Mississippi and gives an unabashed account of the classic spirituals she sang as a young woman. Like John Mc Cormacks rendering of Irish songs there is a personal longing and devotion expressed here that reveals a side of the artist not known in the bulk of their "classical" repetoire. A sense of going home like Citizen Kane's rosebud, or as Dorothy Gale observes at the end of the Wizard of Oz "everything I could ever have wanted was right in my own backyard "

    1 out of 5 stars not your daddy's old timey spiritual.......2004-06-23

    Agreed this is a good cd for a beautiful voice, but this is not, repeat not, for someone who wants to hear that old-timey religious fervor that you think of when you've been to a Black Baptist hand-clapping, standing, swaying, and singing service.

    5 out of 5 stars Immaculate Vocals of Leontyne Price.......2003-12-31

    IMMACULATE, SUPERB vocal range and style! There's no other words that can complement Miss Leontyne Price's vocal arrangements. Miss Price's voice is strong, and shrills very nicely to the instruments played on many songs listed on this double CD which is a joy to treasure; every song listed are songs I was raised to hearing and singing. Miss Price is the reason why many of these songs remain in popularity and presently used. Miss Leontyne Price has been incredible in many of her past performances. This is my fourth CD of Miss Price and I am glad to own this particular CD forever and ever. Many thanks to the executors who found this remarkable album and upgraded it to a CD format! **Angi**

    4 out of 5 stars Great Gospel Stuff.......2001-04-12

    This is a great CD. The only problem I have with it is that on some of the selections there is a boy's choir screaming in the background, and this takes away (a bit) from her performance. That said, her best selections are those that are either unaccompanied or those where her voice is not buried. Songs that strike me are - His Name So Sweet, He's Got The Whole World, Were You There, I Wonder as I Wander, Lift Every Voice and Sing, and my all time favourite Summertime. Enough said.

    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.

    Album Description

    Christmas Never Sounded So Good!

    For more than a decade, John Rutter and the Cambridge Singers have shared the Joy of Christmas with the world. The ethereal sound of perfectly blended voices, singing the most beautiful seasonal music ever composed never fails to touch the heart or lift the spirit. This year, John Rutter and the Cambridge Singers have assembled a NEW collection - compiled from the archives, including FOUR NEVER BEFORE RELEASED TRACKS! This is a holiday feast you will NOT want to miss!

    Customer Reviews:

    5 out of 5 stars Almost angelic.......2007-01-18

    Choral music by the Cambridge Singers is always top-notch. An older album that might have sounded better with newer technology but no complaints. Has great vocals and orchestral support.

    4 out of 5 stars Great choir, but mostly recycled material.......2005-12-16

    I have the utmost respect for John Rutter and his Cambridge Singers, probably the best choir in the world (at least, the English-speaking world). I have almost all their CDs. Two of their Christmas CDs are "desert-island" class for this listener.

    Unfortunately, I cannot give this otherwise excellent CD the same high marks. If they wanted to release a "best of Cambridge Christmas" CD, this would not be it. It does a few of the absolute best Christmas selections, including Sweelinck's "Hodie", Willcocks's breathtaking arrangement of "The Infant King", and Rutter's own quirky reading of "Personent Hodie". And it does contain a few tracks not previously released.

    However, if you want the best of Cambridge and Christmas, start with "Christmas Night", which is always the first CD I pull out the day after Thanksgiving. The sound of the famliar Persall setting of "In Dulci Jubilo" sets my holiday in motion. And that CD also has Rutter's own magical "There is a flower". After that CD, get "Christmas with the Cambridge Singers", which has "The Infant King" and some other treasures.

    So, you can't really go wrong with this CD, especially if you just want an introduction to how this fine ensemble addresses the most choir-friendly holiday of all. But if you're serious about getting all the good stuff, start with the other two mentioned above, then add "Christmas Day in the Morning" and the early "Christmas Star".

    5 out of 5 stars Glittering Chrismas Music.......2005-11-15

    I own virtually all of the CD's of John Rutter (whom I greatly admire) and the Cambridge Singers, and I am a fan of English Choral music in general. If I were asked to recommend only one of the many Cambridge Singers Christmas albums, or indeed one of any English Christmas album, a hard choice, this would be it. As others have noted, this CD is a compilation of songs from previous cds with four new releases. It is, I believe, longer playing than the other Cambridge albums. In style, it is a mostly quiet sounding collection--in fact several carols are sung a cappella-- with pieces ranging from carols such as "The Holly and the Ivy" to the more robust "Fantasia on Christmas Carols". In sum, this is a sensitively arranged and performed collection of beautiful Christmas music.

    5 out of 5 stars The Spirit of Christmas On CD.......2005-06-02

    I have never been disappointed by any Cambridge Singers release, so it isnt surprising that I thoroughly enjoyed this offering as well. This CD is a compilation of songs from previous cds with one or two new tracks, so check your library to make sure you arent duplicating your collection in the order to complete your collection. I purchased this disk to obtain a copy of the Fantasia On Christmas Carols by Ralph Vaughn Williams which was originally released on Christmas Day In The Morning. As usual, every song is performed in a precise yet heartfelt manner. If you dont own any cds by the Cambridge singers I would personally recommend Christmas Night as the first disk to own, but if you know and love the Cambridge Singers as I do, then you will enjoy having this wonderful addition to your library.

    5 out of 5 stars Superb voices!.......2003-12-22

    This CD was beautifully sung by the Cambridge Singers, a boys/mens choir, mostly a' capela. It's the first Christmas CD I've bought that really tempts me to crank up the volume so I can revel in every note.

    4 out of 5 stars The Power of Her Live.......2007-02-05

    At first I Didn't like this live album at all but after many listening times I started to like it. The opening song "Lamb of God" sounds even better than in the studio album. Four songs are taken from "Worship God" and then there's four classics "Blessed Be Your Name", "I Adore You", "Here I Am to Worship", and "The Power of Your Love". O, and the hidden bonus track "Shout to the Lord". This live album has much power and this truly God-worshipping album! I only hope that they would have taken songs from other albums too. It's great listen to this kind of live power in which the audience sings too. "Here I Am to Worship" is an acapella but that doesn't matter! Great!
    Stars: Lamb of God, Blessed Be Your Name, Here I Am to Worship, Quiet Yo With Me Love

    4 out of 5 stars Great Worship Collection.......2006-01-02

    As with anything that Rebecca St. James does, this collection is excellent. She has a superb mix of worship songs on this live CD.

    In addition to the listed songs, there is a hidden track of 'Shout to the Lord' so don't stop the last song too soon. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a lot of songs. I would have loved to have heard a few more. Excluding that mild problem, this is very good. I would recommend it.

    5 out of 5 stars Great Live Album.......2006-01-02

    One of the best live Christian concert albums ever!!!
    Turn up the volume and worship God...

    5 out of 5 stars "I Worship You Now For the Cross".......2005-12-20

    This album is so good! The live music is refreshing. Here's my rating track by track:

    1. LAMB OF GOD. 5/5. Love the new makeover!

    2. BLESSED BE YOUR NAME. 5/5. An awesome version! Her one with Newsboys is good too (See Devotion by Newsboys)!

    3. QUIET YOU W/ MY LOVE. 5/5. This is just like the original, just with people praising God, too!

    4. LET MY WORDS BE FEW. 4/5. This song is pretty god. Very worshipy.

    5 I ADORE YOU. 5/5. Very simple, but very good!

    6. ABOVE ALL. 5/5. Beautiful.

    7. HERE I AM TO WORSHIP. 2/5. This is the only song I don't like, because its a cappella.

    8. POWER OF YOUR LOVE (studio recording). 5/5. This song is so powerful, especially when she says "Hold Me Close"!

    9. SHOUT TO THE LORD (studio recording) [hidden track]. 5/5. This song is not new, it came out in the Transform era. Very good.

    Hope this revire helped you!

    Your bro in Christ,
    Hoogler

    5 out of 5 stars Touching Your Heart!.......2005-03-24

    Sometimes music touches a core deep within you. Your Spirit reaches out and joins with every note that takes you in worship to Him. This is the course of the music here. Kissed of God.
    Be blessed by what you will hear and embrace.

    4 out of 5 stars Nice Collection.......2007-03-05

    I have many collections of Purcell's Music. This collection stands up to them at half the price. Solid buy.

    5 out of 5 stars PERFECT!.......2006-10-26

    There is only a word with which I can describe this set of discs: perfect!
    The only flaw there is, is not related to the singing or playing: no text enclosed.

    5 out of 5 stars Great singing and excellent value for money.......2004-09-19

    This is probably one of the best anthologies of Purcell songs around, and not just because it's two-for-one pricing means it contains twice as much music (CD1:74'24" & CD2: 77'41")! Nancy Argenta has an irrepressible sense of style and crystal clear diction. But unlike Emma Kirby, whose vocal purity can become tiresome, these renditions radiate warmth. She is also, I have found, more consistently involving than any one of the singers in Hyperion's three disc survey of Complete Secular Songs (recently reissued as a single set). One marvels at how she judiciously balances restraint and emotional forthrightness. The accompaniments (archlute, viola da gamba, harpsichord, and organ) are well judged and blend with the voice, all helped by an excellently defined recording acoustic. This is an absolute winner at any price!

    5 out of 5 stars More than two hours of beautiful 17th century 'ayres'.......2001-08-02

    Two CDs, totaling more than 150 minutes of sparsely-arranged (never more than 3-5 instruments at a time), sweetly-sung, 350 year old 'ayres' (a typically English form of secular music). Nancy Argenta's soprano voice is lovely, silvery indeed as her name implies. The instruments are a discreet but friendly accompaniment to her solo voice. Perhaps the instruments are a little too discreet -- there are times when I wish they were a touch more prominent. But that is a very, very minor complaint. A beautiful collection, and quite well worth the money.

    5 out of 5 stars Christmas Carols at there best.......2005-10-18

    It does not get any better. This 2 cd set is outstanding.
    As one reviewer notes the second disk has many carols not heard by most people in the USA. I heard them growing up, but most are hard to find on an album.

    Christmas is not Christmas without King's College Choir singing carols.

    A great collection... :)

    3 out of 5 stars Nice Christmas CD.......2004-01-10

    In my haste for looking for some traditional and exuberant Christmas music, and in my blinding affinity for all things "King's", I purchased this cd. It is a nice compelation, although I, and I daresay many Americans, am not very familiar at all with most of the hymns/carols on the 2nd cd. Morever, I found most of the music lacking in pomp and circumstance. Of course, now, I understand that is not what this cd set is for. If you want big sound and more familiar tunes, try something else.

    5 out of 5 stars The Best Christmas CD Ever.......1999-12-19

    If you are seeking a CD of traditional Christmas music to help you 1) focus on the true meaning of the holiday and 2)draw near to God, this is it. The choral arrangements are alternately beautiful and powerful, delicate and majestic. There is a rich heritage of European carols which 99% of Americans know nothing of. Broaden your horizons with this disc. You won't regret it.

    5 out of 5 stars A masterpiece........1999-01-04

    David Willcocks has produced, without question, the most elegant and dignified collection of Christmas choral music available. This CD is a masterpiece.

    4 out of 5 stars You need one traditional Xmas cd - this is it........1998-11-30

    Yes, most of the stuff was originally recorded in the 50's and 60's and it's not going to win prizes for signal to noise ratio. However, if you, like me break out in a sweat hunting for a xmas cd which won't contain some desperate wannabe modernised rehash of carols or a "listen to me aren't I a good tenor/diva and by the way here are some carols?" tracks, then this is your album.

    From the moment track one started, with a belting rendition of "Hark the Herald Angels", I had a grin on my face from ear to ear. Warm memories of xmases past flood back, cooking, carols, snow and presents. Yes - dreamily rose-colored, revisionist and traditional it is, but worth every penny in this cynical cyber world.
