The songs that didn't get away
This is one of my favorite albums by Sarah. She surprised me with her ability to go from light opera to jazz. Here we don't find the over-produced albums such as Harem, just a superbly trained voice. No little girl breathy tunes here, just solid performances. This is ...

Yes this is Some of the Best of Broadway!
This CD from Decca Broadway is a wonderful selection of some of the "Greatest Hits" of the Broadway stage. Decca and Sony have done an excellent job of remastering the various recordings, some of which still show some of their age, but come across quite ...

Mary Fahl CD-The Other Side of Time
Mary Fahl's voice gets better with time no matter what side of time she's on. I've been a fan since her arrival with the group "October Project." Her lyric s are thoughtful and her alto voice, hauntingly beautiful.

Fabulous for any Broadway-lover
Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a ...

" With Eileen Farrell whispering in her ear"
I began to appreciate this cd with the 2nd listening. I wasn't immediately impressed. Renee Fleming has one of the greatest voices in opera history. Her Marschallin has no equal. Many opera singers have crashed when attempting a different musical style. For me, the ...

Very Nice!
I bought this CD because it was recommended to those that bought Nancy LaMott CD's. While Liz is no Nancy, she has become one of my favorites. Her interpretations are excellent and I like her tonal qualities too. I would buy it again.

Soul Satisfying
I love this CD. It's especially wonderful when it's rainy outside and I'm curled up by the fire inside. My son who is 16, blind and autistic loves it and plays it over and over. I think he taps into the immediate relaxation and beautiful blend of classical with ...

The Thanksgiving CD, 2003
May We Be Truly Thankful
"Come, Ye Thankful People, Come" is the experience of a church music service without actually going to church. There are very few CDs out there that are specifically dedicated to Thanksgiving, but this one is a good outing. The Quincy Choral Society presents a ...

A very formitive work for myself as a musican.
As a young, and musically adventurous boy growing up in a rather bland and conservative town in Western Washington, I was blessed to have access to an amazing, and really kind of avant-garde record library started almost by chance by the head of the vocal music ...

Kiri Proves she can "crossover"
In "Heart to Heart" Kiri definitely proves that she can sing almost anything she chooses to. My personal favorite on this one is probably "He Was Beautiful." I have had a very hard time obtaining copies of this CD due to it being out of print. My mother's ...

Well done
Of all the assorted Broadway Musical Various Artist CDs this is my favorite. Probably because there's no Andrew Lloyd Weber.
