Music reviews of The Greatest Choral Show on Earth

Music Review: Very powerful and moving
Rating: 4 Stars

Many of the performances are simply the best available, however the performance of Mozart's Requiem, one of my favorite works, on this CD doesn't capture all the power and mystery of this glorious masterpiece. Also surprising is that the CD's don't include anything from Mozart's Great Mass in C, the powerful Finale of Haydn's Seven Last Words of Christ, or Vivaldi's Gloria. No Schubert either, and Borodin's powerful choruses from Prince Igor are also left out. Well, you can only fit so much on two CD's, but the above mentioned works are, in my humble opinion, more important than some of the music selections on these discs. If you love choral music, however, get ready for music paradise. And if you don't love choral music already, what better way to get started.
