CD Reviews

Uncle Abe rattles the house with this thing

C. D Smith | Denver, CO | 11/22/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I came home from work one day when my uncle was visiting my wife and myself. He was recently retired from the ministry. He had heard a lot of choral music in his life. My aunt said he had the stereo ( power end of my stereo at the time was an Adcomm 555 amp. conservatively rated at 200 watts RMS per channel) up so loud it was rattling the whole house. I too have come to love this music. I mostly listen to rock and roll; but the way my uncle, and now I, play this thing, it is rock and roll from another era!!!"

This cd is fantastic and has an excellent selection of songs

"Robert Shaw again did an excellent job of bringing out the best of choral music, and he did it on just one cd. The energy from the chorus vibrates throughout all the songs. The chorus and conductor obviously have an excellent feel for the music, as evidenced by the dynamics. I thoroughly enjoyed the music. If you have any appreciation for choral music, you will too."

Sir Robert with ASO and Chorus at their Best!

Fred W Hood | Fayetteville, GA United States | 11/15/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"After Mr Shaw spent many years in NYC and Cleveland with RCA Red Label,he came into Atlanta for a big change! Soon he switched to TELARC DIGITAL! I still Joyfully remember our Recording of the Christmas Nativity in Dec of 1975! Sir Robert, conducting with earphones encasing his head shouted: "Stop the taping, there is some Darn Sizzling noise in those Lights!" We may have not heard the word "Damn" lights, that he employed at times! On both this newer release of TELARC and the older Recording of The Christmas Nativity, there are Bach's Chorale, Break Forth, Dona Nobis Pacem from the B-Minor Mass, Handel's Hallelujah! Plus the exquisite, Shepherds's Farewell to the Holy Family of Berlioz's The Infant Christ! Those who may not be familiar with Berlioz from both recordings, will be richly rewarded by hearing them plus the Rex Tremendae from Berlioz''s Requiem and the other Kyrie from the Bach B-Minor! Absolutely, no other Christmas Music can ever approach these two splendid recordings, which are the basis of the ASO celebrating every Christmas with "Robert Shaw in the Spirit!"Retired Chaplain Fred W Hood"
