CD Reviews

This is an insult to the Choral Music of Leo Sowerby.

(1 out of 5 stars)

"I have performed a number of choral works by Leo Sowerby, including many Anthems, Service Music and his Cantata, "Forsaken of Man" under the conductor and organist, Dr. Ronald Arnatt at Christ Church Cathedral in St. Louis, Mo. The Organ and Brass performances are adequate, but the Choral and Solo Vocal performances are only barely acceptable. Both the choral and vocal sound is very immature with the exception of the soprano solo in the final selection. Hopefully these works will receive their deserved recorded performance in the future."
