A touch of the holy, Nov 24 2001
By Kendal B. Hunter - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hallelujah! Great Choral Class (Audio CD)
This is a nice CD that serves as an overview of mostly baroque choral pieces by one of my favorite choirs. One of the advantages of this CD it that it allows you to compare Beethoven's "Hallelujah Chorus" with the more famous Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus." I think that Beethoven's starts out better, but Handel's is, overall, far superior.They do a remarkable job singing the Humming Chorus, an absolutely oddball piece of classical music, reminiscent of the Magic Flute's Papageno singing with the padlock on his mouth! No, there is nothing wrong with your hi-fi; the choir is just humming the music.
The choir does a magnificent job signing the Battle Hymn of the Republic, which, along with Messiah's Hallelujah Chorus, is one of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's signature pieces.
They did an exceptional job of transferring the old analogue recordings to CD, so there is minimal hiss and fading.
This is great music for Sunday, or for Easter and Christmas. It is nice to have a touch of the holy in your life, if not for a day, at least for a few minutes.

Excellent music by an excellent choir., Nov 24 2007

This review is from: Hallelujah! Great Choral Class (Audio CD)
I have a friend who doesn't like the Morman Tabernacle Choir because she says there are too many voices. I don't know about that, but this CD is excellent. The arrangements are excellent, and the choir is good. In choir at Oral Roberts University and South High School, Wichita, Kansas, I sang Beethovan's Hallelujah Chorus and this is a wonderful rendition of it.
