Title: Great works, lackluster performance
Review: The other reviewers here have done well discussing the quality of the works represented on this CD. I will not endeavor to add more.The recording, however, features VERY lackluster performances by choir and orchestra. The choir sings without giving to the text any sense of connection or textual phrasing. For example, the choir sounds like: "THE - GOD - WHO - GAVE - US - LIBERTY...," instead of: "The God who gave LIBERTY." Every quarter note should not sound the same; rather, the text should be sung musically with a sense of oratory. All quar-ter-notes-should-not-be-equal.The orchestra sounds pretty, but doesn't have much spark or energy to give the performance an engaging sense.If you can, find another recording for these great works. You'll be glad you did.
