Customer Reviews:
Perfect for the Season.......2005-11-19
I purchased this years ago and the enjoyment has grown every Christmas. Handel's Messiah is beautiful, The Nutcracker is a classic and the arrangement of hymns conveys the true wonders of the season. While there is a place for pop carols, these classics should be in every Christian's music library. I loved this so much, I actually purchased a complete replacement set when I lost one of the discs. Certainly an excellent value that any music lover would treasure.
FOR WHISTLING OR SINGING ALONG.......2003-12-28
The gifted Richard Hayman (Boston Pops arranger for more than 30 years) offers an interesting collection of holiday favourites. The back cover says "Orchestra and Chorus" - beware, there is no chorus. The sub-title "Philharmomic Symphony Orchestra" is rather pedantic. Why not simply "Richard Hayman and His Orchestra"? The opening and closing numbers are sing-along medleys... the liner notes offer the words. Two Leroy Anderson numbers receive a fair treatment: SLEIGH RIDE and SONG OF THE BELLS, the latter being played rrather slowly. There is a beautiful rendition of MUSIC BOX DANCER, the only version I know that uses the music box. The counter-melody is too loud and takes away the charm of the main theme. A few compositions by the conductor himself. A great collection for tree-trimming, whistling or singing along.

Just in case the name of Michel Legrand is not familiar, he is the composer of the infuriatingly catchy "The Windmills of My Mind" (actually "The Windmills of My Heart" in the original French) and all the songs in Les Parapluies de Cherbourg, the charming Catherine Deneuve film musical. The material on this disc ranges from the smoky melancholy of "Je vivrai sans toi" ("I Will Live Without You") to the hyperbolic camp of "Celui-là" ("The One") but mainly hovers in the realm of anguished longing. Jessye Norman uses the material to show off the extraordinary range and flexibility of her voice. She slips between a pure, almost boyish sound and a full-throated luxurious warble with ease. But idiomatically she may not be to everyone's taste: for the most part this is the musical territory inhabited by the Billie Holidays of the world, and Norman's technique puts her at a disadvantage. Michel Legrand in his role as pianist is another matter, however. His carefully nuanced accompaniments flow with improvisatory ease, and inspire some great moments from the bass and drums. --Warwick Thompson

Partly disappointing.......2007-04-04
I own many of Ms Norman's records, and she has just about the best classically trained voice around, but this record is very up and down. In short... her voice is overly classical for this type of music. M. Michel Legrand est genial... and his music makes this record.
Sublime, Incandescent .......2006-12-02
Like most of the reviewers here, this album has given me countless hours of sublime pleasure. It's pure gold. This collaboration embodies a wonderful honesty, authenticity, subtlety, and incandescence...qualities that are very rare nowadays. It's a must have for anyone who appreciates the subtle, sublime and the unpretentious. This album simply could not be better.
The silly comments made by the the first reviewer is an unfortunate testament to the muederous mediocrity of the common palate. The macdonaldization of the collective palate, renders most of us incapable of appreciating anything but the expected.
Both Norman and Legrand were simply sublime.
Breathtaking, magnificent....A MUST HAVE!!!.......2006-08-03
This is no doubt, a great CD by a great diva and a great composer...period. It's jazz singing at its very finest, with the most beautiful nuances and vocalization you'll probably ever hear. Jessye Norman, one of my favorite Sieglinde's, Ariadnes, and Kundry's, sings these songs in such an artistic and captivating way that I would gladly give in and say that this is one of the best CD's I've ever owned. Highly recommended!
CATASTROPHIC! .......2006-07-23
THIS ALBUM HAS BROUGHT ME TO THE BRINK OF... I HAVE NO QUESTIONS, FOR AFTER HEARING THIS, ALL MY ANSWERS...
this is the purpose of art-exhuming life
For intent listening and getting blown away.......2005-05-07
I just don't believe anyone would give this less than 4 or 5 stars, how can this be ?
I can't describe the listening pleasure I derived from hearing this. I don't like opera. No, worse than that. What with modern electronic sound equipment that can record the many hues of the human voice, opera is not singing, but "lunging". In actuality, we hear more meaning with other vocalising technologies. Plus, we are expected to believe that because of the complexities of performing this style of (mostly) archaic music that we are witness to genius living out the equivalent of solving Rubic's Cube right before our eyes. Let's show a little descriminative restraint, ladies and gentlemen. "Opera" could be a valuable adjunct to good theater. It's place in academia needs an adjustment, to say the least. Let's do other acts with ourselves.
But you can't top Jessye Norman, nonetheless. This recording blew me clean away.
Yes, the sound is lush. But it's worse (better, I mean) than that. This singer should stop you in your tracks, not just provide you with a lush feel. If you listen seriously -- well, each word, almost each and every separate word is like a natural, richly colored landscape painting.
I should have waited to collect my thoughts with more specific appreciative comments. There are some nice reviewer comments on this Jessye Norman work listed already here.
For those of you with odd music prejudices -- you'd be best to concern yourself with constructive commentary on some other CD rather than cannibalizing this superb and unique recording to compensate for your limits in listening comprehension.
I almost jumped in the air after my first listen through. I still feel unmitigated joy from the work of all, here. No, it's not one that will fit neatly into everyone's pre-existing grooves and mental ruts. Wowee ! Six or seven stars at least.

great, great!!!.......2006-12-05
This is the way ,I think, Purcell should sound. No pomp and surcomstance but only great music.
ALL THE MUSIC YOU EVER NEED!!.......2003-05-23
This boxed set is by far one of the best purchases I have ever made. As a Purcell freak, this hits every button I have. The cast of characters include the inequitable Robert King, New College Choir, Bowman, and a host of other venerable persons. Likewise the attention to period performance of these works makes it an essential addition to the library of any serious anglophile/Musicologist etc. Now if only the Britten Realizations of all Purcell's songs could be recorded alongside the originals! You will Love this set!

Nice cross-over.......2003-03-09
There is only a single track on "The Kiri Selection" that didn't come from one of her other releases, and that is "The World You're Coming Into" from Paul McCartney's Liverpool Oratorio. The rest of her songs can also be heard on "Kiri Sings Gershwin," "Come to the Fair - Folk Songs & Ballads," "From Heart to Heart" with Malcolm McNeill, and "Kiri Sings Kern."
It's a jumbled mixture but Dame Kiri negotiates the songs with a light, brilliant touch, never bringing too much heavy operatic artillery to bear on what are essentially popular songs. For those of you who are not operatically inclined, you may remember this lovely soprano from the 1981 marriage ceremony of HRH the Prince of Wales to the Lady Diana Spencer. Te Kanawa sang "Let the Bright Seraphim" (and wore a very strange hat).
Unlike some sopranos (my chorale director says Dame Joan never sang a consonant throughout her entire career), Kiri is scrupulous about her intonation and you will be able to understand almost every syllable she sings. My personal favorite is her rendition of Kern's "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes:" "They said some day you'll find,/ All who love are blind,/ When your heart's on fire,/ you must realize,/ Smoke gets in your eyes." She sings with intense pathos, yet a little tremble of courage. I can just see her sitting in some chic '30s cocktail lounge, head (with that outrageous hat on it) held high while her friends chaff her about her unfaithful love. She reaches up to brush the smoke or tears from her eyes and pretends to laugh away a remark that was much too personal.
When Kiri sustains a note, she does something with it. She doesn't just sit on it à la Pavrotti and let us admire her beautiful voice. She interprets every nuance of the lyrics, unlike some of my very favorite opera singers who don't cross over into popular music very well, e.g. Domingo, Ramey, Norman, and Dame Joan.
Te Kawana fans, unless you already own all four of the albums mentioned above, this CD is definitely worth your while. Kern and Gershwin enthusiasts will also find interpretations to treasure.
Top Performance.......1999-06-16
I have only just purchased this CD, and I'm in love with it already! Kiri's voice is so incredibly versatile, that you are just STUNNED by her ability to sing Gershwin, Kern and others like a jazz singer. She's incredible, and so's the recording. I'd recommend it to anyone, as Kiri's best CD outside of her West Side Story and full opera performance CD's. Her duet with Malcom O'Neill is amazing, and the way she interperets Gershwin's hits is so neat - far better than I've ever heard. The only SLIGHT moan I would have is that in one or two of the songs, she is a little to far away from the mic, and the orchestra are a little loud. But considering how great she sounds - does it matter? Make this your next Kiri CD purchase.
