It was a great experience. I shopped on line at Amazon. It was easy, got shipping and ordering info via e-mails. The CD was shipped right away and it plays great. What else could you ask for. I buy all my CDs from Amazon. Lower prices even with shipping than in the stores. You get them right away.

Rating: - Simply Amazing
Without getting overly analytical, this music is a MUST HAVE for any romantic vocal fan. If you've ever performed these, it is what would be called a "masterpiece". You will get something the further you dig into the music. Easily performed if mediocrity is acceptable. If true art is the aim, almost immpossible. And an artistic performance by one of the best choirs in this century. Very recommended.

They are short, charming, and emotionally satisfying pieces. The technical demands are not severe, but require performers of some experience if not extensive training. ... Read More
Rating: - The Songs Are Truly Stunning -- A Treasure Trove
Your collection of Robert Shaw CDs wouldn't be complete without this easily overlooked volume of Brahms, 40 tracks (62 minutes) worth of impeccably realized choruses. The entire Liebeslieder (Love-Song) Waltzes are here (the first 33 tracks). They've been known to show up in two versions, (1) for four vocal soloists, and (2) for a four-part chorus of moderate size. Both are valid; Brahms did not make his druthers known. Over the years I've come to prefer the soloist version myself, but this performance ... Read More
