4.0 out of 5 stars has Gladys's talent all over it, November 21, 2006
This review is from: Christmas Celebration (Audio CD)
I was also surprised to learn that Gladys does not sing the vocals except on a couple of tracks. This is an excellent addition to any Christmas CD collection. Gladys's talent and gift for music come through in every number she produces and it's refreshingly easy and satisfying to listen to. We've been playing it everyday since we received it and haven't grown tired of the vocals. Even to hear Gladys sing one of the Christmas songs is well worth buying the CD. The Choir is outstanding and the chosen vocalists are varied and good. Worth buying!

5.0 out of 5 stars The "Conductor" Is Always on the Cover, December 15, 2006
By 
A Real Soprano (Jacksonville, FL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Christmas Celebration (Audio CD)
Obviously some of the previous reviewers do not know of Gladys Knight's recent venture as the originator/creator/conductor of The Saints Unified Choir. She is not just a "guest artist" performing with an obscure choir. The reason she produced/arranged most of the tracks is because she is the conductor and this is her "baby". The conductor is always on the cover. Ms. Knight's purpose in creating this choir was to unite many cultures of music and musicians to show the world that we can love one another through music. I hope those that feel they bought the album by "mistake" will come to open their minds and hearts to enjoy it for what it was meant to be - a celebration. It is a wonderful diverse collection of Christmas tracks. I too wish that there had been a picture of the choir behind her, so that we could see their faces as well. I have seen them perform on a television special and they are a beautiful mix of ages, cultures and musical backgrounds. Our family is enjoying this addition to our Christmas CD's.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring and somewhat jazzy, November 25, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Christmas Celebration (Audio CD)
Saints Unified Voices, Gladys Knight's own choir, under her direction and arrangement sing a dozen wonderful songs for Christmas. On several tracks, she sings the solo parts, with the choir, but she also has a male vocalist for a couple of solos with the choir, and a young boy who does the part of the "Little Drummer Boy" (my favorite track). I found this CD to be inspiring, especially the opening track, in which you can hear and feel the strength of Ms.Knight's conviction and love for Christ in her spoken word and the part of the "What Child is This?". The closing piece where they sing "The Lord's Prayer" is also moving. Except for track eight, "Jesus, What a Wonderful Child", all of the songs are familiar to me, and they can invite the listener to sing along. Of course, some have a more jazzy beat, but not in at over the top. Recommend.
