    3 out of 5 stars Not that amazing........2007-01-19

    I bought this somewhat based on the glowing reviews others had given it. It's not bad, but not that fantastic either. I've heard much better versions of most of the music on it. Not quite worth the price.

    2 out of 5 stars Are you kidding?.......2007-01-05

    While the musical arrangements are tolerably adequate and the orchestra is fair, this is some of the worst choral singing I've ever heard. They obviously have no concept of tuning and couldn't stay on pitch if their lives depended on it. I can't believe this is supposed to be a professional recording and the director didn't correct these glaring errors. I picked up this CD at an after-Christmas sale at 75% off, and I will forever mourn the loss of my $5.00. I guess it might suffice as a mediocre white elephant gift, but I pity whomever may be forced to listen to it. I suggest you not waste your money. If it's classical Christmas carols you want, search for more well-known and trustworthy music groups like the London Philharmonic and the Cambridge Singers.

    5 out of 5 stars Very nice!.......2007-01-02

    I have to agree with the other reviewers that this is a very enjoyable CD of traditional carols. It contains a huge selection of songs. I was afraid that they might all sound the same, but to me, the orchestration and vocals are varied and well done. I bought this for Christmas, and it's one of my favorite new Christmas CDs in recent memory.

    5 out of 5 stars The Holidays Never Sounded So Good!.......2005-12-17

    I loved the "50 Most Loved Piano Classics," so I decided to try another "50 Most Loved" collection, this time the Christmas Carols album. These are classics in their own right as the arrangements and orchestrations are enchantingly beautiful and the choir vocals provide perfect point-counterpoint. I hate to admit this, but I'll probably still be listening to this CD long after Christmas is over. There's a cinematic soundtrack quality that I find haunting. Have a great holiday with this one!

    5 out of 5 stars Very pleased.......2005-11-23

    This is an excellent value. 3 CD's and 50 songs for under $20.00. If you're looking for traditional Christmas music, this is the collection to buy.

    5 out of 5 stars Soothing reflections of memories.......2007-05-18

    There is something about this CD which sounds vaguely familiar, but pleasant. More than one song will contain a certain chord or note pattern that we've heard from other artist. The opening track, "Music Man" has an early Yanni feel to it. "In Time" is written in a minor chord and certain strains remind me of the Moody Blues song "Melancholy Man". Then again, "Sanctuary", one of the two guitar pieces on this CD have a couple of parts that remind me of an Elton John song while another chord progression is reminiscent of a Cat Stevens song. As I said in the title of this review, all of these songs seem to hold snatches of other songs. While I imagine it is purely coincidental, it is nice to stir pleasant memories of other great songs. The solo piano and acoustic guitar songs have only the lightest background which is perfectly mixed. As with Justin's "Soothe", each song ends with a sustained note which carries over to the next song, giving the illusion of one single track. It is hard to compare Justin to other pianists as his sound is unique but he also employs some styles which remind me of Michael Jones, David Lanz, George Winston and Yanni. This is a great CD to put on for a candle lit dinner, reading or just unwinding at the end of a long day. Thoroughly refreshing!

      5 out of 5 stars Like Rainbows.......2005-12-07

      This album contains some very pleasing music. There's a selection of famous Christmas carols, the majority of which are played as instrumentals, with Liona Boyd on classical guitar, Georges Zamfir on pan flute, and a fine team of other musicians, including Toronto's Children's Chorus and the Orpheus Choir.

      Five of the selections include lyrics. The first is the title song, "Christmas Dreams," which begins "Christmas dreams are like rainbows." The others are "Song of Peace," "Silent Night," "Hark the Herald Angels Sing," and "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear."

      It's a good choice for the Holiday season, maybe even more so on the evening of, say, December 6 (Saint Nicholas' Day) or December 24 (Christmas Eve, of course).

      If you are a Pagan, the Holiday season is a great time to invite one's Christian friends over to celebrate Yule, sing "O Tannenbaum," and put presents under the tree. If you want to go, um, whole hog, you can even perform the sonargoltr (sacrificing the Yule pig) for the feast. But don't do that in front of the guests! Instead, get this fine album and use it to promote togetherness.

      5 out of 5 stars A fine Christmas CD for your collection........2000-05-22

      Guess what my wife gave me last Christmas? It was "Christmas Dreams" by Liona Boyd.We played "Christmas Dreams" over, over, and over.... Georges Zamfir plays pan flutes to provide a lovely blend with Liona's beautiful classical guitar playing of Christmas season tunes. Other guest appearances are by Roger Whittaker, The Toronto Children's Chorus, and The Orphius Choir. I enjoy all 14 tracks and highly recommend this CD for this Blessed Christmas Season.

        5 out of 5 stars The Real Thing.......2007-01-27

        I'm a HUGE Mantovani fan and have had mixed results trying to upgrade my collection to CDs. This collection is the original orchestra arrangements of all the classics. This is the one to buy.

        5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Collection of Favorites!!!.......2003-07-02

        The Mantovanti Orchestra shows off their "marvelous versatility" in this "wonderful" collection of "8 CDs", with titles that tell you "just what to expect", such as: "The Love Songs", "Memorable Classics", "Itallian Favorites", "On Broadway", etc. You can set the MOOD for practically ANY occassion! There are even some "popular" selections that we all know and treasure like: "Moon River", "Over the Rainbow" and "Autum Leaves"!
        You will NOT want to remove these GREAT CDs from your CD Player, once you have listened to them! They make "nice" background music for small get-togethers or "lovely" background music for those "ROMANTIC DINNERS", for you and your "SPECIAL SOMEONE"!!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SET!!! It is a GREAT DEAL for the money, even at the full price!!!

          We have had this set for over 7 years and it has become a family favorite. it is played everyday during the holiday season.

          Finding a new copy is not an option before, so if you see a used copy for sell... BUY IT.... great CD set... Merry Christmas to all.

          5 out of 5 stars Excellent Christmas Selection.......2004-12-02

          Luciano Pavarotti singing "O Holy Night" is out of this world. The other selections on this CD are very good and motivated me to investigate the other artists on this CD (Kiri TeKanawa, Leotyne Price, etc.). I feel that it is a "must buy" for good Christmas tunes.

          5 out of 5 stars Number One Christmas cd for me!!.......2002-12-23

          First, the sound quality is excellent. In addition, I love the combination of great choruses and choirs with great operatic voices mixed in; I don't like an entire cd with all the same singers. I also love the choices of carols! The little fanfare and opening and closing make the entire thing like a concert. I love this cd so much I bought a second copy in case something happens to the first!!

          4 out of 5 stars Re-cycled, but still glorious.......2001-11-28

          This Christmas potpourri is a repackaging of several previously released albums that creates the effect of a magnificent Christmas concert featuring some of the world's greatest singers and choirs accompanied by first class conductors and orchestras. It is in fact a historical performance since most of these carols were recorded before 1990; indeed, quite a few of them date from the early 1960's. By the time this album was released, in 1997, several of the soloists had retired (and at least one of those who hadn't, and who will remain nameless, should have) and at least one of the conductors had died. To have called this album the Magic of Christmas Past would not have been overstating the case. Of course, recycled or not, it is still magical.

          To be fair, this repackaged concert does have its benefits. Although it presents a little of everyone and not a lot of anyone; it functions as a preview for other CDs. If the listener really want to hear more from any particular performer, he can have more by purchasing that performer's solo CD (most are still available).

          The selections here seem to be made with an eye to creating a balanced concert on this CD and do not necessarily represent the performers' best work on the CD's from which this one was compiled. E.g., Tebaldi's "Wiegenlied", while introspective and tender, is also woefully under pitch whereas other cuts from her Christmas CD are better in tune and display the distinctive Tebaldi tone more beautifully. Tebaldi and Sutherland both recorded versions of O Come, All Ye Faithful that are more thrilling that the presented by the Bach Choir on this CD. And, we must make do here with only one contribution each from Pavorotti and Leontyne Price.

          However, perhaps this is quibbling. Played from beginning to end, this is a nicely balanced concert guaranteed to put holiday spirit into even the most inveterate Scrooge.

          5 out of 5 stars This will help to make it a beautiful Christmas!.......2000-11-02

          This is an absolutely wonderful recording! From The Bach Choir's Stille Nachte--yes in German--which I need to have at least one of, even if I don't speak German, to Pavarotti's O Holy Night, half in English, half in French, to Dame Kiri Te Kawana's Ave Maria (Bach Gounod), and so so many more: all of them, really, it is absolutely heavenly. This is the first year I've gotten any Christmas music in quite some time, and this turned out to be a special treat. I think that it is guaranteed to help make something special out of the season.

          5 out of 5 stars And to all, a good night of music.......2005-10-16

          Soon it will be the time for shops to be setting out their Christmas items, for while Christmas comes but once a year, in fact people are working toward it all year long. The same is true for composers and musical performers. I found it amusing to learn that this particular CD of Christmas-related organ music was performed in August of 1995; of course, to be prepared in time for the holiday season, it had to be done ahead of time. Not quite Christmas in July, but close!

          This music was performed over the two days in August by Kevin Bower, at the organ in Chichester Cathedral in the United Kingdom. This is straight organ performing - no back choir or orchestral accompaniment. Bower is a nimble and spirited player, with a good sense of holiday mood for the pieces.

          Some of the pieces are very classic Christmas pieces - Handel's 'Hallelujah Chorus', set for organ solo, is a very familiar piece, as are J.S. Bach's sinfonia from the Christmas Oratorio and 'In dulci jubilo' (the later piece also has a setting by Johann Michael Bach). There are some more modern pieces, too, such as John Rutter's Prelude on 'God rest you merry, gentlemen' and W.S. Lloyd-Webber's Interlude on the Coventry Carol.

          This is wonderful music, perfect for relaxing, listening to while preparing for holiday get-togethers, as background music during such get-togethers, or to reacquaint oneself with the music of the holiday season.
