This CD was timely shipped in great condition, and at a reasonable price. These classical songs are wonderful to hear in order to bring back old memories and feelings. The only glitch is that the reproduction of these recordings is alittle weak; the volume and clarity of some songs are off just a bit. I have heard better reproductions of other old recordings, but I'm not really complaining. You'll love this CD if you like its genre.

5.0 out of 5 stars Breathtaking arrangements!, October 17, 2007

While both CDs in this selection will meet all your expectations, three song will absolutely blow your socks off. You can then use the socks to wipe the tears from your eyes. Just listen to "The Battle Hymn of the Republic," "Oh, What a Beautiful Morning," and "Londonderry Air." WOW!

This review is from: The Essential Mormon Tabernacle Choir (Audio CD)

I hadn't heard some of these songs in years and really enjoyed them in the signature choir style. I assume they were recorded some time ago and the collection only recently put together since I don't expect there's much call for certain of the numbers to be performed anymore. Still, I loved them. They brought back such memories. I purchased the CD set in order to get one well loved song in the collection which is rarely performed by anyone and rarer still in English (Bist du bei mir--Art Thou With Me) and didn't even look to see what else was in the 2 CD set, so it was a wonderful surprise to hear these old favorites so beautifully performed. A terrific collection.
