Customer Reviews
AN ABSOLUTELY GLORIOUS CHRISTMAS CD
A CHRISTMAS LEGACY is an exceptional musical experience, featuring treasured Christmas music exquisitely arranged for choir and orchestra by renowned Canadian Conductor Howard Cable. The Timmins Concert Singers and the Timmins Symphony Orchestral Ensemble perform with energy, enthusiasm and exceptional musicianship throughout this recording.
I was very impressed with the expressive qualities and excellent diction displayed by the Timmins Concert Singers in this recording. The variety of music in this CD is wonderful; you get a little taste of rock n' roll (Jingle Bell Rock), of nostalgia (I'm Dreaming Of A White Christmas, The Christmas Song) and spirituality (Go Tell It On The Mountain, Cloche De Noel).
As well, the beautiful music of John Rutter is featured on this CD, highlighted by an exceptional performance of Christmas Lullaby by the Timmins Concert Singers and Timmins Symphony Orchestral Ensemble.
A "must-have" for Christmas!! Treat yourself...you won't be disappointed!
THE BEST CHRISTMAS CD
What a wonderful Christmas treat!! All of your favorite carols are included on this recording and brilliantly arranged by Canadian legend, Howard Cable. The Timmins Concert Singers and Timmins Symphony Orchestral Ensemble are in top form. The voices of the singers are filled with such joy and enthusiasm and, at the same time, exhibit a high degree of musical discipline.
I will play this CD all year around....I already play their first CD "I Remember December"...with Patricia O'Callaghan and Kevin Closs, all through the calendar year.
Bravo!!!
A CHRISTMAS LEGACY IS A CHRISTMAS TREAT!
What a beautiful CD!! I love the arrangements by Howard Cable! There is so much variety and the Timmins Concert Singers sing with enthusiasm and outstanding musicianship. All the Christmas favorites are there.....the Christmas Song, White Christmas, Silver Bells, Jingle Bell Rock, Rudolph & Frosty beautifully intermingled with traditional carols such as Go Tell It On The Mountain, The Huron Carol, The Little Drummer Boy....the list goes on and on.
There is a beautiful rendition of Christmas Lullaby by John Rutter...absolutely gorgeous.
Go and purchase this CD and have yourself a truly merry Christmas. Highly recommended!
