Free Music Review: Fantasia on Christmas Carols
Hit: 4 Stars
I only listened to the Fantasia on Christmas Carols in depth at this moment in time. Sir Thomas Allen is superb in his interpretation of this choral masterpiece. He lives up to his reputation as one of the great British baritones of all times. He is able to express the baritone solo with superb musicianship and nuance. This is a challenging piece for choruses. It demands a level of musicianship which should not be attempted by amateur choirs. The choir is also superb and follows the composers dynamics respectively. I highly recommend the CD if you are only interested in this work. It's worth it.

Vaughan Williams - Serenade to Music ? Five Mystical Songs ? Fantasia on Christmas Carols ? Flos Campi / Sixtieen Soloists ? Thomas Allen ? Nobuko Imai ? Corydon Singers ? ECO ? Matthew Best Poster
Not only is this album an essential compilation for Vaughan Williams fans, but it's also a treat for anyone who loves beautiful choral music--from the popular and unabashedly romantic Serenade to Music, properly performed here with eight solo singers, to the rarely recorded Fantasia on Christmas Carols. Baritone Thomas Allen, who performs the Five Mystical Songs and solos in the Fantasia, is simply outstanding. --David VernierClassical Music CDs
