Review: The massive, magnificent, prolific Mormon Tabernacle Choir performs with the Eugene Ormandy-conducted Philadelphia Orchestra on some of the most stirring music ever written, beginning with the "Star-Spangled Banner" (actually, the first time we remember hearing the second verse), Britain's anthem "Land of Hope and Glory," Irving Berlin's "Give Me Your Tired, Your Poor," Scandinavia's "O Great Lone Hills" (Finlandia), Israel's "Hatikva," Canada's "The Maple Leaf Forever," Sweden's folk melody "How Great Thou Art" (where the choir is joined by The Vocal Majority!!), the Latin American classics "La Bamba," Cielito Lindo" and "Estrellita," Germany's "I'd Enter Your Garden" and "The Fiddler," Norway's "How Fair Is Thy Face," Tolstoy's Russian anthem "After The Storm," "What Perfume This? O Shepherds Say!" from France, Italy's "Song of the Bagpipers," Austria's "As Lately We Watched," and Denmark's "See the Radiant Sky Above" are particularly wonderful. 24 inspiring, beautiful songs by one of the oldest, most well-known choirs in the world!

Review: "America's Choir" began their musical journey in 1847, singing hymns and sacred music, accompanied by the massive Tabernacle organ. These 360 singers, accompanied by an 110-strong orchestra, have in recent years, lent their magnificent sound to recordings of patriotic music, tunes from Broadway musicals and now a musical tribute to master cartoon and movie creator Walt Disney. These 10 songs, from "When You Wish Upon a Star"/"Hi Diddle-Dee-Dee" medley and "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" to "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah," "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes" and "Some Day My Prince Will Come," are as beautifully arranged and sung as we have every heard them. Listen to "Whistle While You Work"/Heigh Ho! Heigh Ho!" medley, and we are taken back to all the joy and amazement we felt when we first experienced "Snow White," Disney's first animated feature. "Star" is a nostalgic, touching winner from beginning to end!

Songlist: When You wish Upon A Star / Hi Diddle Dee Dee, Who's Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf, A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes, Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo, You Can Fly! You Can Fly! You Can Fly!, Zip A Dee Doo Dah, Love Is A Song, Whistle While You Work / Heigh Ho! Heigh Ho!, Some Day My Prince will Come, Spoonful Of Sugar / Chim Chim Cheree / Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious
