Music reviews of Consider, My Soul: Sacred Arias
Music Review: Soaring with Thomas Quasthoff
Rating: 5 Stars
On this beautiful CD,"Consider My Soul," Thomas Quasthoff,baritone extraordinaire, takes the listener to great heights with his renditions of arias from the "Christmas Oratorio", "St. John's Passion", "St. Matthew's Passion", and others.
The duet with Sibylla Rubens, from the "Christmas Oratorio", is achingly exquisite, as the two powerful voices-soprano and baritone - blend in sublime beauty and strength.
And what a joy to hear Quasthoff sing "Swing Low, Sweet Chariot",as a bonus track.
All one can say, is "Bravo!" and "Bravi Tutti!"
Description of Consider, My Soul: Sacred Arias
