(5 out of 5 stars)

"I can't get enough of this music. I'm listening to the album every other day, sometimes several times a day, since I got it 4 months ago. I am fond of all the pieces but especially no 2 and 7 (tecum pricipio, has a harp accompaniment). There are parts that are quite simple ( such as just an organ or a harp accompanying a single voice) alternating with parts that are more intense ( many instruments and voices). I don't find it ever overwhelming (I don't like shouting choirs). The whole is extremely melocic. And the recording is superb with the most beautiful male and female voices you could dream of. Music that makes my soul rejoice. But then, I am partial, I love Saint Saens, a lot of what he composed. This and the cello compositions are my favorite."
