The John Rutter Christmas Album25 reviews
Franz Xaver Gruber, Stephen Varcoe, ...

Collegium, 2002

Good for Chorus Members!
This is an excellent Christmas album! John Rutter is truely a wonderful contemporary composer. As a member of a symphony chorus that sang several Rutter numbers this year, the album was a big help in learning some of his lesser known carols. Thanks!
  
  











  



  
Sing Ye Heavens - Hymns for All Time12 reviews
Cambridge Singers, John Rutter

Collegium, 2000

Another Rutter Keeper!
Rutter has won many fans throughout the world for his passionate, creative yet tasteful contributions to church music. Here is a hymn collection with several traditional choices along with Rutter originals. Several comprise Rutter's remakes, which is most cases are very diginified and not at all distractive to the thrust of the original. The orchestration is superb, and the Cambridge Singers of ...
  
  











  



  
Carols From Clare11 reviews
Franz Gruber, John Rutter, ...

EMI Records, 1990

This music makes me wish Christmas season would never end!!!
This CD is absolutely beautiful. I can't bear to put it away after the holiday season is over! The voices of the Clare College Singers, accompanied by the orchestra blend together to make a heavenly sound. The songs are so gentle and almost mystical. I discovered John Rutter and the Clare College Singers by listening to the local classical music station, and fell in love with their unique ...

John Rutter: The Sacred Flame; Europea2 reviews
John Rutter, Nuova Musica, ...

Collegium, 2009

Argyablt the absolute best collection of its kind that I have ever heard!
John Rutter has always dominated the choral music field, mostly performances and recordings of his own compositions. Who knew that a colelction of early church music would be so captivating. The Cambrisge Singers are in fine voice as they navigate the performance practices of the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. The new group that specializes in Early Music La Nuova Musica give ...

Gloria: The Sacred Music of John Rutter7 reviews
John Rutter, The Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, ...

Collegium, 2005

Seamlessness
Absolutely incredible performance. No overdubbing here, friends. With Rutter at the helm, this group plays as if the piece never existed on paper, floating seamlessly through this many metered montage of ethereal aural bliss. Buy this now, strap on your Sennheiser's and prepare for a very serious voyage.
  
  











  



  
Faure: Requiem and other choral music11 reviews
Gabriel Faure, John Rutter, ...

Collegium, 2000

Beautifully Haunting
After hearing this piece of work on two different occasions on the same day, I felt that I needed to have it. All the choices always make it difficult to choose, so I ended up buying this version. I am utterly amazed with this beautiful piece of music, by its the performers and just the cd in general.
  
  











  



  
Requiem & Magnificat/Rutter, Cambridge Singers33 reviews
John Rutter, Cambridge Singers, ...

Collegium, 2000

Why I Like Tthis CD
This is an excellent CD. I had an ulterior motive for ordering it, however. I sing in a local Choral Society and we are performing it this coming weekend. I wanted the CD to follow along at home and get my part down a little better. I do very much enjoy John Rutter's music and the Cambridge Singers are very good.
  
  











  



  
Messiah: The Complete Work10 reviews
George Frideric Handel, John Rutter, ...

Hendrickson Worship/Martingale Music, 2007

Thrilling and uplifting
Having never heard the entire Messiah, I guess I was just lucky be introduced to it through this recording. The solos are so clear and resonant, the choral numbers breathtaking and the orchestral support first rate. We're all familiar with the famous Hallelujah chorus and I'd heard various other excerpts, but didn't realize there was so much more to the work or that it portrayed the story of ...
  
  











  



  
Gloria: The Sacred Music of John Rutter30 reviews
John Rutter, Cambridge Singers

Collegium, 2000

Glorious!
This recording of the Cambridge Singers has them recording pieces composed by their own director, John Rutter. The Gloria is Rutter's version of a standard piece of liturgical music, representing influences ancient and modern. This was recorded at in 1984, with the City of London Sinfonia and the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble collaborating. --Music-- The Gloria is a piece in three ...
  
  











  



  
Christmas Night: Carols of the Nativity21 reviews
Boris Ord, Herbert Howells, ...

Collegium, 1993

The Best of the best
I,ve been collecting Christmas Music for over 25 Years especially the non-pop genre. This is my desert CD. The Chanticleer and Kings College CDs are very good but this is the summit of quiet meditative music for the season. I always listen to this alone at night and still get thrilled and overwhelmed by it's beauty and sublimity. My favorite track is "In the Bleak Mid-Winter" simply because of ...
  
  











  



  
John Rutter: Te Deum and Other Church Music10 reviews
John Rutter, London Sinfonia, ...

Collegium, 1993

Beautiful, excellent album
I have wanted this album for several years and have finally found it and purchased it. I have listened to it dozens of times since I received it, and love it! I hesitated to buy it because it is more expensive than most music CD's, but it is worth it.
  
  











  



  
There Is Sweet Music: English Choral Songs, 1890 - 19506 reviews
Cambridge Singers, John Rutter

Collegium, 2003

How sweet it is
This disc is a bit different from many of the Cambridge Singers' discs in that it is exclusively secular songs. This was recorded at the Great Hall of University College School, London, in 1986, and originally released on vinyl. I cannot find an analog/digital code (many vinyl originals were first recorded in analog and then transferred to digital, sometimes clumsily) - despite this, the ...
  
  











  



  
Christmas With the Cambridge Singers18 reviews
Rutter, London Sinfonia, ...

Collegium, 1993

Joy to the world
The Cambridge Singers have made several Christmas albums, and all of them are top notch. This particular one was done in 1989, and has several songs in honour of the Nativity. Their performance was done at one of their regular recording spots, the Great Hall of University College School, London. --Music-- The music here consists of 21 carols, motets and oratorio choruses. These range ...
  
  











  



  
Faire is the Heaven - Music of the English Church6 reviews
Benjamin Britten, William Byrd, ...

Collegium, 1993

"Treasures of English Church Music": same music, better buy
Thinking of purchasing the "Faire" and "Hail" CDs together? You will save money if you buy them in another guise: "Treasures of English Church Music." This 2-disk set is a reissue that combines Rutter's "Faire" and "Hail" CDs into a single package. You get the same disks for $12-$15 less. Whatever the package, the music is gorgeous. Highly recommended.
  
  











  



  
Olde English Madrigals and Folk Songs At Ely Cathedral4 reviews
John & Cambridge Singers Rutter, English Anonymous, ...

American Gramaphone, 1990

Music for the masses
This disc is a bit different from many of the Cambridge Singers' discs in that it is exclusively secular songs. They have retained one of their favourite recording spaces, the Lady Chapel at Ely Cathedral, a structure well atuned to a capella singing (it has a natural nine second delay in the cathedral). This recording was John Rutter's first album on American Gramaphone Records. --Music-- ...
  
  











  



  
Requiem8 reviews
John Rutter, Cambridge Singers

Collegium, 1993

John Rutter: Truly the Master!
This has to be one of the most moving musical pieces that I have ever had the privilege of performing. Rutter's music transcends mere notes. I believe that his music is blessed directly by God Himself. There has been no other choral composer like him in the 20th century. "Requiem" is another stunning piece of work in that it tells a story of life and death. Rutter's genius lies in the ...
  
  











  



  
Christmas Star: Carols for the Christmas Season10 reviews
John Rutter, Cambridge Singers and Orchestra

Collegium, 1997

A Beautiful Christmas classic!
Rutter's settings of traditional Christmas carols give new life to some old favorites. The orchestrations are lovely, and the a capella selections will make you feel like you have the world's best English carolers standing on your doorstep. This CD includes many standard carols, and a few lesser-known ones, like the gorgeous "All My Heart This Night Rejoices," which in my opinion deserves to be ...
  
  











  



  
Cambridge Singers Christmas Album7 reviews
Stephen Varcoe, Christmas Traditional, ...

Collegium, 2003

Glittering Chrismas Music
I own virtually all of the CD's of John Rutter (whom I greatly admire) and the Cambridge Singers, and I am a fan of English Choral music in general. If I were asked to recommend only one of the many Cambridge Singers Christmas albums, or indeed one of any English Christmas album, a hard choice, this would be it. As others have noted, this CD is a compilation of songs from previous cds with four ...
