This lovely CD features Renée Fleming singing religious music in an unaffected, lovely manner. Many favorites are here: both the Bach/Gounod and Schubert versions of "Ave Maria," each offered with long breaths and soft tone; "Rejoice Greatly" from Messiah, delivered with virtuosity and gleaming sound, and "He Shall Feed His Flock," also from Messiah, sung in a smooth, laid-back manner. Bits of the Fauré Requiem and Poulenc Gloria are welcome, as is the gorgeous "L'Adieu des Bergers" from L'Enfance du Christ. In the prayer from Humperdinck's Hansel und Gretel, Fleming is joined by the splendid Susan Graham, and a version of "Amazing Grace" features Mark O'Connor on violin. Two excerpts from Mozart's Mass in C Minor, pieces by Reger and Franck, and a few surprises round out this devotional CD. --Robert Levine
Customer Reviews:
I hate to be rude, but . . ........2007-05-06
As stated earlier, I hate to be rude. However, Renee Fleming is not one of the greatest singers that I have heard. At many times, it sounds as if she is drunk, sliding into her notes at times. She also has a habit of hitting a note, and then quickly moving up or down for "dramatic effect". I'm sorry, but I just cannot listen to this. I know that everyone has their own opinions, and this is mine.
She is still a beautiful woman, and always will be. I have seen her concerts online, and she ISN'T bad, it's just that she doesn't have what I'm looking for in an opera singer!
Outstanding.......2007-03-07
I had seen this program on PBS and wanted the CD. Wonderful selection
of music and Renee Fleming's outstanding voice.
Sacred Songs.......2007-01-21
I always look for new presentations of Christmas songs. Rene Flemming did an excellent job in this recording. She has a super voice but sometimes the words of the song get lost in her singing style
My favorite of Fleming's CDs so far.......2006-12-07
There are only two cuts on this CD I tend to flip past (Amazing Grace and the Leonard Bernstein cut), but other than them, I totally love the rest! The cuts in German are divine! I could listen to this CD over and over again.
Inspiring and beautiful.......2006-07-20
I've always loved Renee Fleming's singing and this most recent album is just beautiful in every way. A rich voice, beautiful singing and a devout and magnificent artist. She makes even the most notorious evergreens come to life anew. I enjoyed it very much.

Must-have.......2003-07-24
I just got this in the mail today and have only listened to a few tracks, but the "Les pecheurs de perles" alone makes this a must-have. Sooooo gorgeous. Gedda's voice is divine- probably the best tenor I have ever heard, tone-wise at least.

Customer Reviews:
Great example of this terrific tenor's work.......2006-10-24
Nicolai Gedda had such a large palette of COLORS to his voice. If you will notice in this recording, there are some selections that sound quite dark and baritone-like ("Hotel" is a particular example of this). Then on another band, you will hear a super-lyric tenor, ringing the rafters with E-flats above high C - absolutely spectacular. The Russian pieces are - WOW. I really love this guy, and have admired his voice since I was studying voice many years ago - what a winsome spirit he has, along with his obviously prodigious vocal and expressive gifts.
Correcting Mr. Bjornson.......2002-11-12
Just a brief word or two to correct the sole erroneous impression left by Mr. Bjornson's review. Nicolai Gedda did not have a "small" voice. Perhaps I should say "does not have" since he still performs occasionally. I heard him many times in the old Metropolitan Opera House, and he had what could be termed a medium-sized voice, certainly larger than Alfredo Kraus's back then or Juan Diego Florez's today, both fine singers by the way. In all other respects I agree with Mr. Bjornson and second his recommendation to purchase this fine 2-CD set.
Great small voice.......2001-06-16
Nicolai Gedda has a quite 'small' voice but he uses it with great technique and intelligence. It's well focused, very smooth and not least, beautiful. In other words, a perfect lyric tenor.
The combination of technique, intelligence and beauty makes him ideal for lieder, italian bel canto operas, romantic german & french operas. And you get it on these discs. All songs have been collected from the EMI archives, assuring a high production standard. It contains highlights from most of Gedda's most famous recordings, amongst them a lovely floating 'flower song' (Carmen) under Beecham, and a unbelievably beautiful and effortless 'Je crois entendre encore' (Nadir's romance from the Pearlfishers). The most famous tenor-arias from der Freischutz, il Barbiere di Siviglia, l'Elisir d'amore, Martha, la Boheme, der schöne Helena and many others are featured, as well as works by Mozart, Beethoven, Gounod, Lehar, Faure and Grieg. And their all tremendously well done.
Gedda may not be a Wagner singer. Maybe not even suitable for much of Verdi's or Puccini's works. Therefor it's good that these discs has none of this repertoire. It focuses on Geddas other strengths. For, what Gedda misses in extreme power and positive 'vulgarity' (compared to the ever popular Corelli, del Monaco and sometimes Pavarotti), he greatly compensates by the cheer beauty and intelligence of his voice. This is a school-book example of lyric tenor singing, and after listening to these discs I assure you that you will understand why Nicolai Gedda was one of the last centuries most popular tenors. Simply great! And at this price it's almost a shame not to own it. A must för lovers of the somewhat lighter opera repertoire.
