| 1. | by Stephen Varcoe Price: $17.99 Customer Review:  John Rutter made substantial changes to the previously most-performed version of the Faure Requiem when he recorded this. He went back to the version of 1893 to do so, rather than using the more famous, more heavily orchestrated later version. One difference is that the violins in the Sanctus are... |

| 2. | by Steve Pearce Price: $16.99 Customer Review: Wow, what a musical. This is the best one Elton John has written. The subject, Billy Elliot, learning ballet in a working class English coal mining town is great. The movie was excellent but this sounds so much better.

| 3. | by Simon Keenlyside Price: $13.99 Customer Review: Simply superb. I don't know what our local (Wash DC) paper was talking about when they said Deep River was the weakest link. I was enthralled from beginning to end. I have had the pleasure of hearing Bryn Terfel live in recital at the Kennedy Center. I can assure you that his voice has only improved... |

It is an excellent album to ensure the spirit of christmas is present and to bring the true meaning of christmas back. The double CD selection has all the golden favourites as well as not so wellknown carols... |

| 7. | by Renee Fleming Price: $16.98 Customer Review:  I truly enjoy Terfel's vocal talent and found it to be well suited for this genre. Fleming's impeccable soprano voice is a bit overpowering for this style of music. (I own this CD) |

| 8. | by Stephen Roberts [baritone] Price: $21.98 Customer Review: One aspect of the founder of modernism that gets little press is his deep faith rooted in the Russian Orthodox Church. Stravinsky's ballets use the savage irregular rhythms and epigrammatic melodies of Russian folk song. The sacred choral works featured on this disc are "Russian", too, but theirs is... |
