A Choir of Angels II: Mission Music is a lesson in elegance
09/22/1998
(5 out of 5 stars)

"A Choir of Angels II: Mission Music is a lesson in elegance and the peaceful. If you close your eyes while listening to it, you are picked up and carried back in time away from the hub bub of the modern world. The music and vocals are pure, beautiful and as the title suggests, angelic. The even match of voice and instrument blends so well with neither outdoing the other that one almost forgets that they are indeed separate. The liner notes for Paloyoloyo (Cahuilla bird song) translates for us, "I hear the spirits moving in the water, this represents my connection to those who have been here before me." Although I am by no means a music expert that represents to me exactly what this album is, a gateway between the sacred past and the modern world."
California's Musical Past Brought to New Life
William Summers | New Hampshire | 04/07/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"As we enter a new century, we have the opportunity to reassess the past with new eyes and new tools. This recording, A Choir of Angels II, presents performances of both ravishing beauty and skilled reconstruction of the musical past of Alta California. On one disc we can gain a unique view of the panorama of musical styles and genres known to the people who populated this region, the last of the Spanish colonies in North America. Listen with care to the "Padre nuestro". It is a gem of choral beauty and one of the most widely-know works from all of Hispanic California. This is a minature masterpiece and performed with exquisite beauty on this recording. Zephyr have done a splendid job all the way around in this recording. All persons who want to know about California's past should be sure to own this disc."
I highly recommend this CD!
