5.0 out of 5 stars Touchingly delivered traditional prayer and music, November 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Prayer of the Church/ The Rosary (Audio CD)

For those who like to pray "in choir" and for those who are no longer able to formulate or articulate the prayers and hymns that they have said and sung all their lives, this album is a true God-send. It offers the most beautiful Catholic prayers backed with some of the Church's most beautiful music (The Rosary, for example, backed by O Sanctissima, Immaculate Mary, and of course the Ave Maria). David Phillips has been able to capture the attitude of genuine love and piety in each prayer's vocal rendition (both male and female), so that the listener here experiences both peace and the presence of God (we know, after all, that they are one in the same). Perhaps this is why aside from myself, the people I know who have discovered "Prayer of the Church" say they have never heard anything like it; they are not content with one copy, but buy it for their children, their elderly relations, and for those who are prevented from partaking in public liturgical observences. In short, this is an album you can feel confident will please those who are drawn to prayer and filled with the love of God.

5.0 out of 5 stars My FAVORITE Rosary CD!, October 1, 2001

This review is from: Prayer of the Church/ The Rosary (Audio CD)

Beautiful! Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
For this reviewer, who has a difficult time with meditation and repetative prayer, this CD has been both a BLESSING and a TREASURE!
Rich with the prayers of the Holy Rosary, accompanied by the Traditional songs of the Church, this CD is the best one out there, today!

After listening to it and praying with it, I puchased a second CD to keep in the car.

It is Highly recommended by this reviewer, and if it were possible, I would have given it TEN STARS!

God Bless!

This review is from: Prayer of the Church/ The Rosary (Audio CD)

This CD is one of the best when it comes to recordings done on recitation of the Holy Rosary! The music (both vocal and background) help lull you into that wonderful meditative state of prayer. The voices featured on the disk are pitch perfect for the recitation of the individual prayers (they alternate between a man/woman's voice!) and spoken at a good speed very articulately!

For the new Catholic, this disk might not be so helpful as it does not contain the written words of the spoken prayer (any Missal or Book of Prayer should contain them anyway!) but this should not deter you! Another great thing about this disk is that the prayers are done in the English language, a nice and welcomed switch from the usual disks recorded in Latin.

Overall, I whole-heartidly recommend this CD without any reservation!
