CD Reviews

Well-intentioned, if lacking.
05/28/1999
(2 out of 5 stars)

"The Kirk Chancel Choir has plenty of spirit and makes excellent efforts on this recording. Ricky Tims put together a capable orchestra to back them up. Still, the choir suffers occasionally from intonation problems, especially during grander passages that require a large sound.Most disappointing, however, is baritone soloist Charles Waldron. His voice sounds strained in the higher register of the Mystical Songs. More troubling is his vibrato, which becomes a pronounced tremolo as the volume and intensity increase."
