Love Changes Everything
I really enjoy this CD as it is uplifting. The words to the songs are printed and great to following along. The words to "Love changes Everything" are really very meaning and I believe to be true. We all need to love someone in our life.

Irish lassie is definitely not a dog.
WOW< WOW< WOW< WOW and WOW If you have never heard Haleys voice and you are a music lover, listen to some of her samples and like me you will probably become an overnight fan. What a voice. To have that kind of talent, beauty and empathy just isn't fair. An exceptional human being!!!!

Return of Sacred Treasures
The original Sacred Treasures CD is justly acclaimed for bringing beautiful, sublime Eastern Orthodox music to American listeners. Unfortunately, the subsequent discs in the series did not live up to the original's standard. Sacred Treasures 2 was an ill-conceived recording of Allegri's "Miserere Mei" with instrumental accompaniment. Sacred Treasures 3 went back to the Eastern Orthodox music; it ...

"my kids & I watched Andy from his early beginnings"
Yes, back in the early '60s, Andy Williams was doing a weekly television and every year when the Holiday Season came around...his warm and wonderful Christmas Show was the best on the air...my children and I would snuggle up in our living room on a cold winters night and watch our favorite entertainer sing traditional and popular Christmas songs, putting the entire media in the Holiday mood. This ...

Fantastic Ballroom Dancing!
I was first introduced to this Mantovani album as a child. It held a prized place in my father's record collection and although the remastering process made it louder, clearly there were limits with regard to sonic quality. It is still my go-to recording for THE BLUE DANUBE et al. Strongly recommended!

The Aranjuez Adagio is Perfection
The second movement adagio of the Aranjuez concert is one of my favourite pieces, a very difficult one to get right. I've listened to well over a dozen variations, the one on this CD, track 19, is an absolute gem. Just by itself is reason enough to own this CD. The only other Aranjuez performance that's even worth mentioning in the same breath is Julian Bream's, track 2 of the CD titled just ...

The sense of beauty emerge within us as these chorals fill the space of our head and heart. A music written by real masters and interpreted by voices rarely heard. Beautiful.

GLAD THIS CD WASN'T LEFT " DOWN IN THE BASEMENT "
After seeing " DESPERATE MAN BLUES " on TV; I found out about this CD & knew that I had to own it. Even though ( as I indicated in a prior review ) I am NOT a 78 rpm Collector; I do know that this CD really is a TREASURE TROVE of some extremely special records that are definitely worth listening to. Kudos to JOE BUSSARD for being the superb Collector that he so obviously is & for putting this ...

Great Strauss music conducted by an expert
Willi Boskovsky was born and trained in Vienna and served as concertmaster of the great Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra for forty years. The outstanding performances of Viennese waltzes and other music by Johann Strauss II -- The Waltz King -- as well as by his father Johann I, and his brothers Josef and Eduard which are presented on these CDs make clear that Boskovsky thoroughly mastered the ...

beauty, simplicity, and utility
Of this CD's twenty-eight tracks, eighteen are arrangements by Kevin Siegfried; the remaining ten are straightforward, unadorned performances of Shaker hymns, sung either by the choir in unison, or by a solo voice, as they would have been sung in Shaker services. Occasionally the choir stomps and claps, also as the Shakers would have done. The unison songs and Kevin's settings blend seamlessly ...

Wonderful
OK. So I'm no musician, but for my money this is superb, beautifully played and emotionally expressive. I am quite alarmed by the reaction of some of the other reviewers here. The sound quality really is not as bad as all that (in fact it's pretty clear compared to most) and Bach's suites are brought to life in a way that I have not heard before. Where other lesser musicians make these ...

Only Kreisler Can Play Kreisler *****
What can I say? Only Kreisler can play Kreisler. Get a discography of Fritz Kreisler and start hunting down everything you can find by this man. You can compare violinists; Heifetz has astounding technique, Milstein's always wonderful, Oistrakh is a favorite of many, Kogan can play anything, etc., etc., etc.. But Kreisler... is a unique personality of the violin. Yehudi Menuhin said of him in his ...

Meditative and Deeply Moving
With respect to those who have negatively critiqued this CD, I wish to add to this forum my heartfelt praise. When one pauses to consider the ancient roots of this music, and the sanctity of the place to which it solely belonged for so many years, its depth and richness magnify. When one goes further, and allows oneself to sit still and breathe in the echoing precision of the voices so hauntingly ...

Entertaining Piece of Hawaiiana
This is the Christmas volume of the Cord International series of remastered vintage Hawaiian recordings from the 30s, 40s, and 50s. The three cuts by Genoa Keawe are wonderful Hapa Haola recordings -- pop songs of blended Hawaiian and mainland musical traditions and language. Janet Hilo does a quaint little sung story. The two cuts by Lucky Luck are Christmas stories told in slang. Not too ...

My favorite album. English church music at its finest.
Whether you have a couple dozen albums of English choral music or whether you're looking for an introduction to English choral music, this two CD collection is a must. Here you will find a wide selection of sacred favorites, from Gregorian chant to Ralph Vaughan Williams. It's a misnomer to call it "Anglican," since this would exclude (in addition to, of course, the pre-Reformation Latin hymns) ...
