Synopsis

Album Description

"Simply gorgeous choral singing ... the Choir achieves near-perfect interpretive consensus and vocal ensemble, with stiletto-sharp intonation and unearthly tonal beauty." -- American Record Guide Grammy-nominated for Best Choral Performance and Best Classical Engineering. In 2005 Conspirare won the Margaret Hillis Award for Choral Excellence, presented by Chorus America, their highest award for a choral ensemble. Includes singer-songwriter Eliza Gilkyson's "Requiem," a response to the catastrophic Asian tsunami in 2004.

CD Reviews

Incredible Singing

Dan Buchanan | Texas | 01/30/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is one of the best choral recordings you will ever own. Impassioned, beautiful singing with all the precision and discipline you expect in a choral recording. Buy it - you won't regret it!"

One of the Best Ever

ABF | Austin, TX USA | 12/08/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is one of my two all-time favorite choral recordings, the other being Conspirare's "Threshold of Night." The artistry of Craig Hella Johnson and Company of Voices (Conspirare) is incomparable. One cannot listen to Conspirare without being transported and transformed."
