Customer Reviews

Magestic music

These are Civil War songs and are sung in the usual all out effort of the Morman Tabernacle Choir. Many of these are simple songs and would probably be best with a solo singer and a guitar. To hear them sung with massed choirs, full blown organ and all the embellishments is pretty strange but all in all they are a pleasure to hear.

Reward for a long search
This is the reward for a long search although it is not exactly what I was looking for. My original goal was to find a similar choir music with roughly the same titles: I was desperately looking for (and still am!) 'The Blue and the Gray' sung by the Norman Luboff Choir. I have bought this record several times as a gift for friends. My own record I have lent to someone who has lost it meanwhile. From all the records I have bought none is available anymore. Do you think there is achance to find a new or used record of this? Regarding the Mormon Tabernacle Choir: I think it is a very good CD although not entirely as good as the mentiond one from the Norman Luboff Choir.

It is a matter of personal taste
Some time, I like a song sung by a big choir and sometime I prefer a song sung by one or two singers with or without a merely invisible choir to support them. For example, The battle Hymn of the Republic is the perfect song to be sung by a choir. Technically speaking, the recording is good. In fact, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir obviously sings very well. However, I prefer a more classic style to listen and to sing along. On an other way, the choice of songs is very good. If you like the sound and the way of singing of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, buy it.
