Music From The Vatican
Decca Records, 2009
Impressed
I bought this item from iTunes. What a great work of music. It is enriching to your soul and mind. I love the mixture of latin, western, celtic and african music... Great work. I love it. And the voice of Pope Benedict makes it all the more special. Great gift idea for anyone who is a true catholic in his/her mind and heart.

Something for everyone -- brilliantly done.
It might seem a little odd to release a Christmas CD in September -- it feels just as odd to review one. I don't quite have the "spirit of the season" just yet. But this is a wonderful holiday album that has so much going for it - even some tracks that can be enjoyed year-round. Brian Stokes Mitchell is without doubt one of the most versatile and talented singers around today. And on this ...

This guy's awesomely talented...
We first heard him on a fundraiser for Public TV in Detroit and thought WOW!! We never turned the channel, like usual. We listened to the fundraiser all night long just to hear him play in concert. I bought this CD the next morning on Amazon.com and bought three copies to give as Christmas gifts to the music lovers in the family. It's well worth your nickel to purchase it!!

Another wonderful Time Life Christmas treasure trove
As with the first Christmas CD that I reviewed, which technically goes hand in hand with this particular Christmas CD (originally they were sold as a set), I must say that this one is just as amazing as the other one. As I said, these are the original songs by the original artists and the sounds are top notch. Burl Ives was a local son from my hometown area and many of us will remember him as ...

Christmas Music Done Right
No more beautiful rendition of the Christmas songs presented on this recording exist, from the rousing trumpet flourishes of O COME ALL YE FAITHFUL, the exotic treatment of PATAPAN, the obscure but lovely LULLAY MY LIKING, ONCE IN ROYAL DAVID'S CITY, and SILENT NIGHT the way it is supposed to be done. Quiet and reverent, not bellowing out like the eruption of Mt. St. Helen's. A beautiful cd. A ...

THIS is Christmas music!!!!!
This is an outstanding CD!! I was looking for a good Christmas CD, found this, and now have a great Christmas CD! The performances both from the philadelphia orchestra and the philadelphia chorus is spectacular! The music just surroundes you with warmth and christmas spirit. There is no other Christmas CD to compare with this except, of course, Handel's Messiah.

"Mommy, Mommy, it's Tchaikovsky . . ."
This is a fantastic CD on so many levels -- Perlmutter has added witty, silly, yet often educational lyrics to some of the most recognizeable melodies in classical music. Most of the lyrics include some information about the composer, so that anyone who listens a few times will at least learn the composer's name, perhaps the popular name of the melody, and a few other facts. For example, ...

Amazing Talent
This is a creation I would keep in my library as long as I have one. It has been awhile since that kind of talent has appeared on the scene. This music is to relax and take life easy with. It brings a sense of peace to ones heart. I can only hope there is more to follow with these young men bringing us a whole new world of music to enjoy.

A Great Marriage of "Talents".
This is a fabulous combination of two phenomenal talents and I loved it so much that I give it as gifts... and the receivers are immedate fans. I'll leave the technical jargon for those more gifted and eloquent writers and conclude by saying, it was wonderful!

Lovely moments
I wanted to give this five stars and praise it as a masterpiece, if only to counteract some of the lousy reviews it's been receiving in the press. But it's not a masterpiece -- it's just pretty good. There are definitely some lovely moments on this disc, my favorites being the wonderful pieces featuring the Moroccan (and Muslim) composer Nour Eddine. The remaining compositions are well-produced ...
