America's Choir September 28, 2007
Athuur E. Wittmer (St. Louis, MO - USA)
I happen to be a fan of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, so I couldn't be happier with this CD!
Beautiful and Uplifting! August 7, 2007
M. A. Hair (Riverton, UT United States)
This CD has a variety of popular and less known hymns, patriotic, and "American" songs. I listen to it often, and find it very beautiful and uplifting. It is a good mix of music - won't put you to sleep. It has become a favorite of mine - love it! You can't go wrong buying this one.

This Summer I had the experience of a lifetime hearing THE MORMON TABERNACLE CHOIR live in concert. Nothing had prepared me for that performance ... that absolutely gorgeous, sensational wall of sound that shook one's body to its very core. When I purchased this recording I expected it to be just faintly reminiscent of the in-person experience, but it was/is so much more. Today's recording techniques replicate the choir's magnficent sound beautifully. And what a recording! The best of their sacred repetoire, a 21st century version of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" and several wonderful 'popular' folk and broadway pieces as well. It is a true joy to listen to over and over again. My highest recommendation!
Perfect starter CD! February 11, 2005

I'm surprised that no one has reviewed this CD yet. Released in conjuction with the Nationally-released PBS documentary "America's Choir" - this album is a perfect starting place for people who wish to have a sampler of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Serving as both a latter-day "greatest hits" and a stand alone album, this CD gathers six tracks from the Choir's recently released albums "Consider The Lilies," "Spirit Of America" and "Peace Like A River" and adds TEN brand new tracks recorded specially for this project, creating a perfect sampler of both the Choir's magnificent history and it's current sound. It highlights the strengths of the Choir's repetoire, from well-known hymns ("Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing") to patriotic standards ("Battle Hymn Of The Republic") to folk songs ("Shenandoah," "Bound For The Promised Land") and even some surprises, like the traditional Welsh anthem "O Home Beloved" and the "Fugue In C Major (Jig)" for organ and orchestra. A wonderful, wonderful CD, with startling changes in mood and tempo, but with the unifying artistry of the Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Sqare.
