Better Than I Imagined
I have to admit, I had no idea who Howard Goodall was. I don't listen to classic FM that much and am unfamiliar with his previous releases so can't compare. I bought "Enchanted Voices" solely on the strength of the ads on LBC Radio. 'Pro Alios Curantibus (For Those That Care for Others) featured and caught my attention. The CD did not disappoint at all and Pro Alios is definately my favourite track. The voices are indeed enchanting and transcendent. This CD not only helped me to completely relax, it has actually helped me get past a creative block. I highly recommend it.
Fantastic album
I love this album. The music is beautiful and Beati mundo corde is a wonderful piece. A must but from this fantastic composer.
Nice - but unsure
I've loved Howard Goodall's previous works - "Eternal Light", "Love Divine", "The Lord's My Shepherd", and have admired his knowledge of music (eg Channel 4's "Organ Works" series and his current ClassicFM shows). This work is different from the others though. I wasn't sure of the beginning, but by the end I was engrossed. All the tracks are wonderfully delicate, yet movingly intense. The simple voices merge with the orchestration to give a wonderful richness. Beati mundo corde is excellent, but for me the last 2 tracks, Pro eis solitaris and Pro eis sine domo, finally grasped my attention and made this work a worthwhile buy. Think of having an hour-long bath with only a few candles lit and this in the background.
