Customer Reviews:
Nice music but..........2007-03-08
I liked the music and the performances a lot, but there is no booklet to depict the performers, nor analyse the music or the arrangements, which are superb
Great CD.......2007-02-16
This is a great holiday CD. We used it for several holiday dinners this year.
A Noble and Festive Christmas.......2007-01-21
This is the best Christmas album you could ever get. It is the most stable as you do not have to think about it. This is the album you really sing along to. Brass makes everything festive, grand and noble; so will your Christmas! A gem for every year!
Meat and Potatoes.......2007-01-18
Since the release of this fine recording in 1967 there have been many fine
brass groups:The Canadian Brass, the Empire Brass, just to name a few.
Whereas these latter groups have all resorted to "gimmicks" such as unique arrangements to sell their albums this group of brass players from the Philadelphia Orchestra give us an album of good old "meat and potatoes" playing spiced with fine tone,good ensemble playing, and good tempos.
Totally Awesome.......2007-01-12
I love listening to this cd at christmas. The brass is so crisp, almost like being right there. You have to add this to your holiday collection, and for those of you who like brass, you will love it. I play the french horn and I esp. love hearing the french horn in it.

Customer Reviews:
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.

Customer Reviews:
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.
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.
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!
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.

A Timeless Tradition.......2005-12-15
I have been listening to this choir since 1982. I wore out the original tape, in the days before CD's. I have been to the actual performance, a week before Christmas three times and am going back this year 2005.
The performance is so delicate, yet so powerful that it is emotional and moving, regardless of your orientation. Imagine this performance, in the manificent HH Richardson-designed Trinity Church, Copley Square, Boston. People wait for hours to get in. The lights go out, the Choir, brass timpani and organ just work so well together. One by one, candles are lit, and the huge church comes alive. The choir processes down the asiles singing in strength and everyone joins in.
It is a spiritual experience even if you are not religious. The strength of the performance invites you to participate. I find myself singing louder than I do anywhere else.
After my first child was born, I held her in my arms, and "Candlelight Carol" became my anthem:
How do you capture
The wind on the water?
How do you count all the stars in the sky?
How can you measure
The love of a mother
Or how can you write down
A baby's first cry?
I am not a musician and to my ear, the Chorus is professional. The tunes are classic, but they bring a new life to familiar tunes.
If you've been feeling stressed out, this is the perfect time to calm the nerves, focus on meaning and purpose, and let you enjoy yourself for a few minutes.
If you can't attend, do the next best thing, get the CD, turn it up till you hear the bass of the organ rumble your rafters and sing your heart out.
Enjoy!
A nice blend of music for Christmas.......2003-12-30
This is one of my favorite discs at Christmas time. It is at once peaceful and calm, yet joyous and expectant. There are the usual brass and organ carols, but also stunning arrangements and performances of lesser-known things. Prime among these are the setting of "Away in a Manger" that makes me want to pull off the highway and listen just to that song without distractions, and the pulsing, exciting "What Strangers are These", which I have never heard anywhere else. Chorally, the disc is a little unsatisfying because of balance issues with the rest of the disc--some songs are loud, others very soft, so it makes it hard to listen to without having to adjust the volume periodically. However, I still wouldn't trade it for all the Messiahs in the world!

Tour de force.......2007-04-26
Horner's score for 'All the King's Men' is, like the movie itself, a tortured, dissonant, tragically noble journey. The thematic material is wide-ranging and very dark. Atonality and dissonance make this a somewhat unique offering in the soundtrack genre.
The music relies on four themes: a noble, bittersweet melody first stated in the Main Titles and present throughout virtually the entire disc; a "power" theme charged by rhythmically insistent percussion and orchestral hammering; a melancholic, innocent childhood motif first heard as one of the characters plays on a piano; and a dark, foreboding melody associated with Willie Stark's "corruption" throughout the film's course.
The disc is a bit short (just under one hour), but it is a very intense 56 minutes worth of music, from the melodrama and sad nobility of the Main Titles to the haunted, tortured cue, "All Our Lives Collide." The final track is also a strong recap of the disc's major thematic material--forming a kind of suite to the movie itself. "Verdict and Punishment" is unrelentingly restless, the string sonorities becoming bolder and bolder as the track progresses. Horner mutates and insinuates the Main Title's melody throughout the score, giving the disc a distinctly unified ambience. The score retains the fire, passion, and conflicted nature of the film and its characters in full measure.
Overall, despite the accusations of plagiarism on Horner's part (I am not well versed enough in his music to find these instances), and despite the disc's shortness, the soundtrack to "All the King's Men" is well worth hearing for those who are prepared to enter a more complex set of sonorities than the average soundtrack might offer.
Very nice.......2006-10-12
I truly didn't expect this from Horner. He wrote an original score including some of his signature cues such as the military drum beat racing before being accentuated by the clang of a bell. His beautiful string work is prominent in the main theme. Some tracks are tense underscore with shrilling trumpets.
Film reviewers have complained about the "overbearing" music in the movie. Not having seen it, it's of no concern to me. It's a fine listen on its own and a nice change from Horner after some, in the opinion of many, unoriginal recent works.
Check out THE LEGEND OF ZORRO and THE CHUMSCRUBBER as some of his finer, recent works!
Great Music for a not so great film.......2006-10-05
All the King's Men is definetely a departure for James Horner, a composer who is often accused of plagiarising his own and other works. However, this score is unlike any I've ever heard from him. It is dark at times and meloncholic, but always beautiful. In "Main Title" the soaring melody is played by strings and is backed with percussion to keep a sort of militaristic feeling which I guess alludes to the feelings of power that Sean Penn's character goes through. The softer, quieter sections of the CD offer a stark contrast to the loud and, some would say, bombastic nature the rest of the album. These bombastic sections run parallel to Sean Penn's over the top portrayal of Willie Stark. And although the film falters, this soundtrack is a very solid listen. I would rank it as one of the best scores of the year.
All The Kings Men......Most Original Masterpice of Horner to Date.......2006-10-02
Well I have been waiting and Waiting and Waiting and its finally out. This has to be the best work Horner has done in a while. For the first time Horner does not copy his past scores. And this is in part because Steve Zallian the director would not let him do so. The theme is wonderful. and should be nominated for an oscar just like the movie.
Nice Theme.......2006-09-28
The theme for this movie is nice, and fits well with the tone of the movie.

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.

"They Saw Memphis Give Birth to Rock And Roll".......2004-08-21
4/23: Before I begin this review, let me add something here: like fine wine, this CD has most DEFINITELY just gotten better over the years! OK, back to the circa '05 blurb: Kind of morbid how these tribute things are released on the anniversary of Elvis' death. And August 1997, the twentieth anniversary thereof, saw the realease of "All The King's Men." Still...Scotty Moore and DJ Fontana (Elvis's pre-army, pre-percodan, pre-colonel, and pre-priscilla) Guitarist and Drummer are to be forever praised for inventing Rock and roll instrumentation. (Oh, yes, most ASSUREDLY Chuck Berry too - damn, wouldn't it have been nice to have him on this, too? Ah, fantasies!) Regardless, look who IS on here with Scotty and DJ: Keith Richard and the surviving members of the Band on "Deuce And A Quarter"; the Mavericks on "I Told You So"; and MY favorite American band, Cheap Trick on "Bad Little Girl." The remainder of he CD is no less grand (well, I could go for the rest of eternity without Steve Earle), but the artists Scotty and DJ jamm with are more country. In short? I think Elvis himself would've been pleased with this CD. It's "only" rock nd roll,you know...
We Owe You Scotty, Big Time !!!!!.......2002-06-09
Scotty Moore was simply the greatest ever!!!!! And thanks so very kindly for the commentary on the "Classic Albums" dvd, "Elvis Presley" (just released) and how it was all put together cos sir, did it change the world?????!!!!! Whoaaaa!!!!! Simply The Greatest. Thank You So Very Much!!!!! And you too "D.J."!!!!! - They simply don't make 'em like that no more!!
Great homage to a great guitar player & R&R pioneer!.......2001-05-05
I don't know what these other reviewers were listening to!! ;-) Everyone under 30 should be required to take a class in rock music history and learn that it didn't start w/ Hendrix / Clapton / Richards (who's on this one!). Scotty was creating an "alternative" long before Nirvana......

Nice concept, songs not so great.......1999-11-22
This is an unusual tribute album 'cos it doesn't feature any Elvis songs. Rather, it contains songs by artists who were fans of the King (backed by Elvis's old band, of course). I like the concept but the songs could've been better. Only a handful are really catchy.
Best cut: "Deuce And A Quarter" by Keith Richards & The Band. Other notable tracks: "Soulmates" by Ronnie McDowell (a real Elvis soundalike) and "Strange Love" by Joe Louis Walker. Other songs are not that great.

Customer Reviews:
Beautiful Christmas Music.......1999-12-11
We first heard this CD on NPR while returning home from a business trip. We ordered the CD as soon as we could. The music is as close to perfect as choral music can be. The songs are short, so the pace changes appropriately. Most of the selections are familiar Christmas carols with a few surprises. We've sent copies to our friends to enjoy.
