classical music: Eamon Dougan ...     classical music:       Bach: St. John Passion2 reviews Colin Baldy, Eamon Dougan, ... Naxos, 2003 A period St. John Passion with a "live" feeling If any of us were to visit New College, Oxford on an Easter Sunday when the college's in-house forces performed the St. John Passion, we'd be floored. For a small, localized group to offer period Bach with such naturalness and unforced feeling is remarkable. There's no churchiness on the one hand or academic dustiness on the other. In terms of human expression, Higginbottom's reading surpasses ...             Bright Orb of Harmony1 review Ben Davies, Eamon Dougan, ... Coro, 2009 heavenly music This Cd has got lovely sacred music, which is a great joy to listen to it.             Brahms: Ein Deutsches Requiem Eamon Dougan, Johannes Brahms, ... Coro, 2007 "Richly rewarding; a matchless choir." -- Gramophone "A triumph." -- The Independent One of the world's leading choirs performs a rare edition of the piano duet version of Brahms's Requiem , using a grand piano from the composer's era. Brahms himself made the piano transcription of the orchestral parts of his magnificent German Requiem , a piece never intended for church performance. The arrangement for two players allows a degree of ...             Handel: Messiah (1751 version)14 reviews Eamon Dougan, George Frederick Handel, ... Naxos, 2006 I was moved to tears by the beauty of it I have heard several performances of this work, or of excerpts of it (highlights). I loved the glory of it, the musical "equivalent" of a beautiful church soaring upwards with stone arches and stained glass windows. A record my parents had mentioned that Handel had a vision of Heaven opened and Jesus sitting at the right hand of God when he completed the Hallelujah chorus (he had the gift of ...             Moon, Sun & All Things [Hybrid SACD]1 review Eamon Dougan, Nicholas Perfect, ... Hyperion UK, 2005 Excellent CD I followed recommendations on Amazon to purchase this CD along with some others. Excellent recommendation!             Agnus Dei: Music of Inner Harmony: The Choir of New College Oxford28 reviews Eamon Dougan, Gregorio Allegri, ... Erato, 1997 Wow! I'm a long-time listener of all things rock-'n-roll, from Classic rock, to Alternative, and even a little Metal. I first heard this CD while having dinner at a friends house a long time ago, and I loved it. I've always been enchanted with choir music, so I bought this CD. Well, after years of listening to it to help me to unwind in the evening, I somehow misplaced it. So I came to Amazon to ...             Agnus Dei II: Music to soothe the soul6 reviews Eamon Dougan, Tomaso Albinoni, ... Erato, 1998 Good choral CD, but . . . Agnus Dei II is a really good choral CD with a more otherworldly sound than most choral offerings. But the first Agnus Dei is better, amazing really. Own both, but if you only want one, get the first one.             Moon, Sun & All Things4 reviews Eamon Dougan, Nicholas Perfect, ... Hyperion UK, 2005 This CD will be all things to many music lovers Sequels most often seem to turn out disappointments. Luckily, that isn't the case with "Moon, Sun & All Things," which is a follow-up to Ex Cathedra's "New World Symphonies." The musical experience may in fact be of a higher order this time around. Whereas the first disc featured some fairly average settings of portions of the Latin mass, the new disc follows the program of a Vespers service, ...             Streams of Tears Ben Davies, Eamon Dougan, ... Coro, 2008 "Exultant and agile singing." -- The Guardian A brand new recording from one of the world's leading choirs. Exquisite choral music from a "Golden Age" of New World composition. The music of this period is as varied as it is distinctive, with a harmonic richness and color found nowhere else.             Path of Miracles1 review Adrian Peacock, Dan Jordan, ... Signum UK, 2006 Mystical, soothing, modern, and ancient I first heard part of this album on New Sounds on NPR. I didn't catch the name of the composer, so I actually had to wait until the next day when the show's playlist was posted online to find out. I rarely remember to do something like that for an hour, let alone a full day later. Fortunately, the album was worth the effort. I was fascinated by the modern composition and performance ...             Cecilia McDowall: Stabat Mater; On Angel's Wing; Three Latin Motets Eamon Dougan, Cecilia McDowall, ...
