1.0 out of 5 stars American Anthem, November 6, 2001
By Terry Gruggen (Bloomington, MN USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The cover leads you to believe you are buying a Denyce Graves CD. Don't believe it. She only sings in 3 songs. The rest of the CD is an amalgamation of old, worn out recordings (e.g., Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops). If you want to appreciate the real Denyce Graves....pass up this CD and head to the Opera section.

1.0 out of 5 stars Buyer beware, November 9, 2001
Featuring Denyce Graves on the cover was a smart move for the marketers. Just twenty per cent (3 of 15) of the offerings feature Ms. Graves. Her work on the album is wonderful, and some of the other pieces have their appeal, but if you are looking for a Denyce Graves concert, you will need to look elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars God did bless her voice., November 21, 2001
By A Customer
I did consider this CD a pleasure and an honor to own. I happen to be partial to mezzo-sopranos and contraltos and the other selections rounded out this CD well for my enjoyment. This lady gave us a memorable rendition of 'America' during the National Prayer Service for the September 11, 2001 tradegy and while it was not the same it was great. I'm so happy to have contempory opera singers grace us with their elegance. While I listened to this CD I truly remembered why I love America. WE have so many references, cultures, and musics to enjoy and the best of the best were selected. Priceless.
