Editorial Reviews
The Detroit Free Press, July 21, 2002
The William Appling Singers, an ideal chamber choir, sing with pristine beauty and feeling.
The American Record Guide, January/February, 2002
Appling's singers phrase deftly and climb inside the texts with such natural conviction, you almost forget there’s artistry involved.

Brilliant,
By A Customer
This review is from: Shall We Gather - American Hymns and Spirituals (Audio CD)
I couldn't recommend a CD more highly. As a musician I was amazed at the variety of the music here and the truly exceptional performances. It's seems we can always rely on Albany to put out the most interesting and highest quality recordings.

Excellent,

This review is from: Shall We Gather - American Hymns and Spirituals (Audio CD)
The best "Sacred Harp" or "Shape Note" type singing that I've heard. The various renditons are clear and harmonious.
None of that tuning up, barking, la-la's or other cacophonous sounds here.

Wonderful music,

This review is from: Shall We Gather - American Hymns and Spirituals (Audio CD)
For those who like this type of music, this is a wonderful CD. These are very professional singers, so it doesn't sound like a rural church choir or a gang at a "Shape Note Singing" convention. But it doesn't sound like the Mormon Tabernacle either. It is authentic, sensitive, and respectful of the tradition. And very beautiful.
