Amabile Youth Singer's 10th Anniversary ConcertArtist: Amabile Youth Singers Album: 10th Anniversary Concert Year: 1995 CD#: 12069 Best Tracks: #1, #4, #7, #8, #9 Comments Overall: Varied selection of choral works by one of the best choirs in the country, backed by Orchestra London. 1. Missa Brevis, 21:18 - georgious, extremly long, changes four or five times: Kyrie Eleyson, Gloria, etc... 2. Dixit Dominus (Psalm 110), 11:21 - varied piece, the backing of the orchestra is particulaurly evident 3. Missa Brevis, 10:37 - slow throughout, but picks up slowly, very sweet 4. Psalm 23, 5:12 - "the lord is my shepherd...", nicely sung, low and slow, some sublime moments, sung in English 5. Benedictions, 1:27 - slow, sweet 6. Hej, Igazitsad!, 1:02 - energetic, quick 7. Cape Breton Lullaby, 3:49 - melodic, rises and falls beautifully 8. Tishialuk Girls, 2:43 - energetic, moves quickly, much clapping in the background 9. Petty Harbour Bait Skiff, 4:13 - tale of a maritime disaster, begins strong, then grows quiet, then strong again 10. Carol of the Ladder, 2:42 - tenor soloist backed by full choir 11. Elibama, 4:18 - tenor soloist backed by full choir, slightly more energetic than #10, awkward composition 12. I'm on my Way, 3:29 - continuous beat, energetic, confident 13. Las Amarillas, 2:32 - energetic, high pitched in places, some bizzare 'yips' halfway through 14. Honor! Honor!, 2:29 - classic gospel spiritual Note: Also posted under "Sacred Music" Website: www.amabile.com/Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amabile_Choirs_of_London,_Canada
