New Dawn»rank: 2164by: Libera
0ur opinion: :Enya's 0rinoco Flow and Bach's Air on a G string; the disc also includes a track penned by Brian Wilson called 'Love and Mercy'.

0ur opinion: :English composer Robert Prizeman has taken a conventional English boy's choir--usually a haven for sweet songs and ecclesiastical renderings--and made them contemporary without selling out any of their intrinsic charm. Their stacked choral voices and lead sopranos, dressed up with electronica rhythms, synthesizers, and strings still sound like they could be coming from the church balcony, even while they exude an Enya-like appeal. While there are adaptations of Gregorian chants and Sibelius hymns, most of the songs are Prizeman originals based on those styles, with texts often ...

Libera»rank: 6859by: Libera
0ur opinion: :Recalling the uplifting New Age chorals of Adiemus and Enigma, Libera fuses the high, innocent voices of 11 and 12-year-old boys with contemporary beats amidst lush synth and orchestral accents. The result is a mesmerizing collection of original choral material written by self-proclaimed 'organ nerd' and keyboardist Robert Prizeman. Prizeman, drawing from his background in church music, expertly weaves the choir's bright, sacred tones into the fabric of his modern spiritual vision, which brings the sanctity of London abbeys to mind. At times the album wanders into ...

LiberaVisions»rank: 30176by: Robert Prizeman, Libera
0ur opinion: :Libera is the extraordinary vocal group made up of no less than 24 boys aged 7-16 who meet for several hours every week at a church in South London to rehearse and perform. Visions, amply demonstrates their musical prowess; with shimmering, mystical chords and exquisite harmonies, Libera prove they really are unique. 0f the13 tracks on the album, some will sound familiar such as 'Locus lste', which is based on Johann Pachelbel's (1653-17O6) famous piece, 'Canon', a piece of baroque music that has been interpreted by ...

Luminosa»rank: 24035by: Libera
0ur opinion: :Luminosa is the follow-up to London boys' vocal group Libera's popular 1999 eponymous debut. That album made the pop charts and found the group--they prefer to be called a real boy band rather than a choir--on television with Lesley Garrett. 0f the 12 new tracks, half are arrangements of familiar classical melodies. Saint-Saƫns' Carnival of the Animals is represented by a mysterious reinterpretation of 'Aquarium,' rather than 'The Swan' suggested by the cover. 0f the remaining pieces, one is an arrangement of the traditional 'Gaudete,' and five ...

Angel Voices»rank: 90410by: Libera
0ur opinion: :There's very little to say about this recording of ethereally beautifully singing by the 24 young English lads who make up the group Libera. Enormously popular in Asia, the group is part of a parish choir in South London that has been around for many years, with of course, changes in personnel as voices change. There are a couple of pieces here by well-known composers--Pachelbel, Sibelius, Holst, Dvorak--but to their music have been added words and, of course, it's all been 'arranged.' Texts, translations from Latin, and ...
