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... :)

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.

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.

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.

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.

"Joy" was a true return to form for Teddy Pendergrass and a must have set for anyone who loves a great male voice in peak form along with "A Little More Magic"...masterpiece best describes the incredibly great "Truly Blessed" and this is how one will feel when experiencing this tremendous collection of great songs and performances...this overlooked masterpiece should have been a huge hit with numerous "Grammy Awards" so do not miss the musical experience of a lifetime and Thank You to Teddy Pendergrass for this musical treasure chest of timeless and classic performances...you are the greatest!

A superlative comeback album........2003-06-18

"It Should Have Been You" was the huge hit single from this CD that did plenty to bring TP back to the top of the charts, but every song here is powerful. My personal favorite is "We Can't Keep Going On Like This".

Teddy bear is the man voice from the past still with the drop dead killer looks. He has the sounds and there is none other than can make it sound like Teddy. He is a gifted man with so much to offer the artist of today. Listem and you will learn the true meaning of love.

Transcendent Beauty.......2004-08-14

I am surprised that no one else has reviewed this album. Most likely it's because it's not terribly well known.

Anyway, this is an absolutely gorgeous sampling of Russian Orthodox Church music. The Italian baroque influences are evident in some of the pieces, but the rich Russian chordal style always comes through.

The voices are transcendent, and truly evoke a sense of the sacred. If you are ever feeling angry, sad, hurt or stressed out, this is the perfect album to put you at ease. Track 19 will take your breath away.

I haven't even listened through the entire CD. I don't think I can bring myself to spend my time doing so. Where to begin. From the selections I've heard, the chorus sounds incredibly thin and weak, the organ overpowering them on numerous occasions. Part of the blame in that, however, goes to the mix...the choir not getting enough mic to balance out the instruments. That happens too often in chorus/instrument recordings and it drives me batty. The music selections aren't so inspiring either. You would do much better devoting your hard-earned dollars to Eric Whitacre's acappella choral works, or any of his contemporaries.

Bless The Lord, O My Soul -- a moving performance.......2000-03-17

This portion, Bless The Lord, O My Soul, appears on a disk called: Angels of Ecstasy (BMG) and is by the Moscow Chamber Choir (Minin). The first time I heard this both beautiful and moving music, and the perfect performance, I had to stop everything and just listen and appreciate. My next step was to search Amazon.com to see if the original, complete recording might be available, and so it is at a remarkable bargain price.
