Dave Williamson Singers And Orchestra - Joy To The World
STYLE: MOR / Soft Pop RATING OUR PRODUCT CODE: 19477- LABEL: Word 7013517364 FORMAT: CD Album
Reviewed by Tony Cummings
With heavy handed orchestrations featuring walls of violins and a great deal of timpani this is almost identical in sound to its sister volume 'Sing We Now Of Christmas'. You get yuletide evergreens like "O Come All Ye Faithful", "Silent Night", "The First Noel", etc - but in truth these productions are woefully stereotyped.

Hi there.
I am the music director of the Emmanuel Methodist Church
here in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. I just love this work that
you have done and I declare that it is one of the most
fabulous arrangements of the carols I have ever heard. I had
bought the CD in 1996 and have been looking for the song
book so that I may get my church choir to present this for
Christmas. I really hope I can get a copy of the songbook so
that I can prepare this work for Christmas 2010. I am quite
keen on getting the orchestrated arrangement of the same
work. Please do let me know what other products of this work
that I can purchase.
