This review is from: Alma Mater: Featuring The Voice of Pope Benedict XVI (Audio CD)

I bought this item from iTunes. What a great work of music. It is enriching to your soul and mind. I love the mixture of latin, western, celtic and african music... Great work. I love it. And the voice of Pope Benedict makes it all the more special. Great gift idea for anyone who is a true catholic in his/her mind and heart.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Alma Mater: Featuring The Voice of Pope Benedict XVI (Audio CD)

I bought this CD as a gift for Thanksgiving Holidays for my Mother's home and her guests in CA. She and her friends love it! They are in their 80's now and don't get over to their local catholic church much every morning like they did all their life; so this is a great way to start their day along with their devotional prayers over the newspaper while delightfully drinking their tea or coffee. I'd recommend it to any family, especially this holiday season. It will be a great addition to your usual festive tunes, perhaps early a.m. hours.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic album regardless of your beliefs., November 29, 2009

thegreatenthusiast (bournemouth) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Alma Mater: Featuring The Voice of Pope Benedict XVI (Audio CD)

I bought this album this morning after much anticipation. The excerpts I had heard sold it to me, and it only gets better with the full thing!

The music engulfs you when you listen to it - I had it on in the car on my way home and it put me in such a happy mood.

I would definitely recommend this, especially if you enjoy classical or orchestral music. It would also make a great present for my grandmother too ...
