"24 hymns of praise and worship."  The idea of this series from Hosanna! Music is to allow the listener to participate with the musicians and singers on the recording as they worship God.  And this should be very easy.  The hymns are all well known and very well arranged into a seamless collection.  In fact, it is so seamless and perfect that all of the passion and feeling that was obviously present when these powerful hymns were written has been lost.  The anonymous and familiar choir, which seems to be the same used for all of these types of recordings since the early '70s, curiously brought back memories of the glittery parades at Walt Disney World.  I half expected them to burst into "zipadeedoodah" (apologies to Mickey Mouse for the spelling).  Anyway, I won't waste any more of your time, and if you take my advice you won't waste any of your money.

Being a praise and worship leader at our two churches, it helps to get candid feedback on music available. I spend a considerable amount of time finding appropriate and most importantly useful music tools to enhance our worship services. Thanks.
