Title: Pleasant, but sort of long
Review: Having thought that 'Awake My Soul' was to be a two-disc CD set of Sacred Harp singing, I was surprised to find that it was a DVD set that had to be viewed rather than heard. The first DVD centered upon interviews of many individuals concerning how they became involved with Sacred Harp singing. Of interest was the portion concerning the development and history, with brief samples of singing in church U.S. colonial times.The second DVD consisted of actual singing from several congregations in southeastern U.S. While very enjoyable to listen to, after the first hour, I wondered if they would ever run out of songs. The exposure was very informative, and I would no doubt feel comfortable in giving it a try, but I would have liked a little bit more introduction to the reading of the notes.
