CD Reviews

American Anthem
Terry Gruggen | Bloomington, MN USA | 11/06/2001
(1 out of 5 stars)

"The cover leads you to believe you are buying a Denyce Graves CD. Don't believe it. She only sings in 3 songs. The rest of the CD is an amalgamation of old, worn out recordings (e.g., Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops). If you want to appreciate the real Denyce Graves....pass up this CD and head to the Opera section."
Buyer beware

"Featuring Denyce Graves on the cover was a smart move for the marketers. Just twenty per cent (3 of 15) of the offerings feature Ms. Graves. Her work on the album is wonderful, and some of the other pieces have their appeal, but if you are looking for a Denyce Graves concert, you will need to look elsewhere."
Bravo!

"Yes, it is true that Ms. Graves is only on a few of the tracks of this CD; however, I believe that I, like many other people, can overlook the marketing and enjoy the whole picture. My brother received this CD for Christmas from one of my nieces. I have really been stricken with the beautiful music of all the tracks and am now ordering one for myself. One of the most beautiful tracks of the CD is the "Lift Every Voice and Sing". We sang this same hymn at my church recently. It is a non-denominational church where no one is excluded. It is a very fitting anthem for the doctrine of the church. After hearing the anthem sung on the CD, I have a new appreciation for the words.I am so glad I am not a purist so I can enjoy the fine arts."
