Synopsis

Amazon.com's Best of 1999

In 1998, cancer took the life of avant-garde cellist Tom Cora, a prolific, genre-crossing musician who never received his due acclaim. On Hallelujah, Anyway, we can hear some of Cora's finest moments and dozens of his musical friends performing works that celebrate the musician's life. Weird, wonderful, and ultimately moving music. --Jason Verlinde

CD Reviews

Welcome respite from a wall to wall sell

09/16/1999

(5 out of 5 stars)

"What a welcome respite from the garbage the commercial markets want me to give up my money for. A host of artists, wonderful music, variety and a source for continual rediscovery."
