5.0 out of 5 stars A Less Judgemental Perspective, December 9, 2009

This review is from: Hear the Angel Voices (Audio CD)

It must be wonderful to be a great critic like J. Ryan, the first reviewer of this artist and album. He must be almost perfect in his own vibrato - probably earns millions as a great artist. Frankly I think he is the one who has a "somewhat strangled top." I suggest he stick his own oeuvre in file 13, take two humility pills every four hours, and watch the Youtube video "Validation".
As for this album, it is wonderful! It is exciting to see the Paul Potts and Carl Tanners of the world use their God given gifts to bless others. Is Tanner the next Pavarotti? No. But he is an excellent tenor and this is a commendable album!

2.0 out of 5 stars Yet another classical singer trying to do cross over - STOP!!!, December 19, 2007

This review is from: Hear the Angel Voices (Audio CD)

If I have to listen to one more tenor/soprano/baritone/mezzo yodel their way through the Christmas oeuvre I think I will scream - oh, wait, they have already done it for me. This guy sounds like Jose Carerras in his later years - right down to the overly present vibrato and somewhat strangled top. As with so many classicaly trained singers who make these recordings there is this major confusion about how to use the breath. So often they end up (as in this case) with a very intense and inappropriate-for-the-music sound. A much better example of a classical cross-over artist is that of Anne-Sophie von Otter - now that is good singing and a lovely voice in the service of the music and its intent.
