CD Reviews

The Best Gospel Album by a Classical Singer!
JRTLC | Munich, Germany | 11/06/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am SO happy that this has finally been re-released onto CD! I have known this album for the last 10 years, as a friend of ours gave us a copy, first on cassette tape, which we wore out, and then on CD. I have played it for just about anyone who will sit still long enough to listen, and I count it among my favorite recordings of all time! I have other classical gospel recordings by some of Ms. Quivar's colleagues, and while I also enjoy them, they simply are not in the same league as this recording!



Florence Quivar is, quite simply, perfect in this recording. She has the perfect mix of classical and traditional gospel technique, and performs every song on this album with an astonishing range of colors, ability and with so much feeling that I am moved every time I listen. I am a classical singer myself, and this album is a true inspiration to me. It is a document of what singing really can be about, a magical fusion of sound, word, emotion and soul! I can recommend this for both the classical and the gospel enthusiast, but know many people, who really are neither, who just recognize and respond to the powerful, emotional, fantastic singing in this album!"
Quivar- a wonderful interpreter of Spirituals
Emilia Alan | Pembroke Pines, FL | 09/29/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is a must buy for any audience, any age. Her voice is that of a gorgeous-full voice mezzo, her singing revives ordinary songs into lively, well interpreted spirituals. Highly recommed it."
Florence Quivar sings outstanding Spirituals/Gospel Songs
Mary E. Johnston | Englewood, New Jersey | 12/17/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"She is especially amazing in "Sit Down, Servant" and "Honor" but she really sings every piece with great authority and sincerity befitting the idiom.



Her recordings with the Harlem Boys Choir are just wonderful to hear.

She has the perfect voice for these spirituals and never makes her voice the point, but rather the texts."
