New Review: “…a recording of absolute musical success. Joan Lippincott never overwhelms with the sound of the organ, and the Camerata is a splendid musical group. This recording could convert even a person who thinks he does not care for Bach’s music, should such a benighted soul exist anywhere on the planet.”

Bach"New Review: "The East Carolina University Chamber Singers is the cream of the school's four choral ensembles-mainly undergraduate music majors...The choral tone is extraordinarily fine: warm, solid, well blended, and superbly disciplined. These qualities are enhanced by the friendly acoustic of St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Greenville. I am inclined to think that the freshness and purity of sound we hear on this recording can only be obtained from well-trained young voices...Daniel Bara directs performances that are thoughtful and sensitive, with remarkable care over phrasing and nuance."Click here to see "Greater Love: The English Choral and Organ Tradition"New Review: "Jonathan Dimmock’s CDs are sure to spark a new interest in and appreciation of Sweelinck’s organ music. They are the perfect resource for hearing Sweelinck with new ears and moving a few giant steps closer to understanding what makes his music so powerful and enduring. Renew your connection with this old Dutch master by owning a copy of this magnificent recording. It is—forgive me—a 'musical journey' you will be glad you took."

'Dixie' comes off as the wistful, attractively introspective song it ought to be. Favorites like 'My Old Kentucky Home', 'Shenandoah', and 'Down in the Valley' also tug at the heartstrings in handsome arrangements sung sensitively by this 32-voice choir from Minnesota."

Path of Miracles by Joby Talbot
Tenebrae (choral ensemble), directed by Nigel Short
The 62-minute a cappella choral work, "Path of Miracles" depicts the journey of medieval pilgrims to Santiago, Spain, resting place of St. James. Extensive use of ostinato patterns, soaring soprano lines, and Tenebrae's incomparible vocal virtuosity make this CD a must-have for anyone who likes contemporary choral music.
One reviewer wrote: "I would go as far to suggest that Talbot’s “Path of Miracles” is to the first decade of the 21st-century what Arvo Pärt’s "Passio" was twenty years earlier." (Classics.com) Another said, "Path of Miracles is little short of a musical miracle itself."
This hybrid super-audio CD (SACD) plays in both a standard CD player, and those equipped for SACD.
