What Customers Say About Handel's Messiah: A Soulful Celebration:

This cd is great. Classical favorites innoculated with today's vibe and harmonies. This cd is an excellent collage of Christmas music. A very upbeat,energetic and wonderfully arranged musical delight.
My favorite song is, "And He Shall Purify". I love this CD. I lost it years ago.
If you hear nothing else this Christmas.start here. The ship became a pure megadecibel sound source for those huddled together around bonfires on the beach and those in the 18 ship posse trailing the Argosy "Spirit of Seattle". All I can say is if Handel himself heard this performance of the chorus--he'd have stood up before King George and shouted, "Thank you, Jesus." Holy Moses. The Hallelujia Chorus was the Seattle Christmas Ship's transition theme last night when we cruised Bill Gate's Lake Washington and not a foot could keep from stirring.
Anyone who loves "Messiah" will appreciate yet another example of Quincy Jones' genius. This is an amazing album. Handel + Quincy = Mega Masterpiece Track 5 on this album ("But Who May Abide the Day of His Coming.") has long been my favorite Christmas "song." No matter how many times I play it, I am overcome with emotion. Tears flow, and my perspective is always renewed.
It is a must have for any gospel lover. It is on constant rotation from Thanksgiving thru New years every year. Hey, its a must have for anyone. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS ALBUM. I have lost it, worn it out, scratched it and re-purchased it happily everytime.
