Pure beauty.......2005-09-06

Ever since Charlotte Church turned into a tabloids' darling and a wannabe pop star, there's been a gap opened for a young, sweet-faced soprano. The best bet on filling it seems to be Hayley Westenra, a young singer/dancer from New Zealand.

The result: "Pure," an album that is reminiscent of early Sarah Brightman, back when she did folk songs and showtunes. Westenra sticks close to her classical sound with songs like the delicate "In Trutina" and the traditional New Zealand song "Pokarekare Ana," which is rendered with the backing of a a rather muddled male chorus and some swelling strings.

However, Westenra doesn't neglect more modern songs, and she does well in classical pop as well as straightforward classical. The big difference seems to be a bit of synth and a delicate guitar melody, in songs like the charming "Beat of Your Heart" and dreamy "Why Painted the Moon Black?" It's a smooth, thoroughly sweet crossover effect.

Westenra also eschews the usual round of classical-pop songs, like "Nella Fantasia." I love that song, but it's been done so many times. Instead, she opts for Maori lullabies, Vivaldi ballads, the neglected "Mummer's Dance" and the orchestral cathedral grandeur of "Benedictus." She even covers Kate Bush's "Wuthering Heights," adding a modern feel to the finale.

That is not to say that every choice is an excellent one. "Wuthering Heights" has Westenra trying to sound more Bush-ian, while "Amazing Grace" is too simple vocally. Aside from those, her choices of song are excellent -- rich, uplifting and beautiful, and backed by a wide range of orchestral musicians, especially the strings.

There is also an accompanying EP, in which Westenra covers four Christmas ballads, and does them all justice. Her vocals are well suited to the dignified lyrics of songs like "The Mummer's Dance" and "Silent Night," although a bit less for the still-lovely "Mary Did You Know" and "Away in a Manger."

Her vocals themselves are not operatic, but they are strong, clear and sweet, without pretensions or dramatic flourishes. The effect is stunning, more given to magic and sweetness than to keeping to classical standards. Since this was recorded when Westenra was only sixteen, one wonders how good she'll be in ten years.

Despite comparisons to Charlotte Church, Hayley Westenra is more like Sarah Brightman -- a sweet-voiced singer, straddling the fence between classical and pop. An enchanting experience.

WHAT A GIFT!.......2004-12-20

I RECEIVED THESE 2 CDS AS A GIFT AND I LISTEN TO THEM FREQUENTLY. HER PERFORMANCE WITH RUSSELL WATSON (ON DVD)ON HIS TOUR IS WONDERFUL. I CAN'T WAIT FOR A NEW ALBUM. WOULD LIKE TO GET HER NEW SONG, BRIDAL BALLAD, FROM THE SOUNDTRACK OF THE MERCHANT OF VENICE

Incredible voice - Incredible CD.......2004-04-29

I recently saw Hayley on TV and had to immediately buy this CD. Her voice is so clear and pure, and her songs are filled with lyrical emotion.

It is an absolutely incredible CD that any music lover should have in their collection. My favorite song is Wuthering Heights.

The Best.......2004-04-27

Her album is the best, voice of an angel.......you can totally relakes to her music.

Charlotte is NO match..........2003-12-15

Hayley is just phenomenal. There is no doubt that she surpasses every other female artist in her genre. This CD is astonishing. My two favorite songs are "Heaven" and "Wuthering Heights". The first Hayley Westenra song I ever heard was "Heaven". It would not be the last. Her voice is like that of an angel. She has a smooth, serene sound, and she has an incredible range. If you want a more classical sound, you want her. It's not that gaudy stuff that people generally think of. This stuff has a beat... and it's not pumping with bass. If you're a fan of Sarah Brightman, Josh Groban, Charlotte Church, or Mario Frangoulis... try Hayley Westenra, you won't regret it. I just can't wait 'til she comes to the states... that'll be a good day. She has a few Italian songs, but she's not heavy on the foreign stuff like some of the other artists of Opera / Classical. She's got a wonderful voice for a little girl... I'm a huge fan, Hayley! You roped me in, in about 2 minutes time!

Donna De Lory drew inspiration for her enchanting and ethereal pop CD Bliss from a deep well. Having grown up in an intensely creative environment--her father, Al De Lory, is a musician and record producer who has worked with the Beach Boys and Phil Spector, and her mother is a dancer and singer--it's not surprising that she would blossom into an artist in her own right. What is pleasantly surprising, though, is that De Lory should produce such a mature and accomplished work as her debut independent release. Bliss begins with "On and On," a life-affirming song that is right at home both musically and lyrically with Madonna's recent Eastern-influenced music. The best track in the set may be "A Woman's Pride," recalling Kate Bush with its funky, rolling rhythm and intoxicating, vulnerable-yet-strong vocal performance. De Lory and company gently bring us back to earth with the intimate vocal and cello interplay on their interpretation of "Amazing Grace," deftly capturing the sentiment and the essence of this timeless song. Cameron Stone's fluid, penetrating work on cello and bass is an integral part of the musical setting, which includes guitar, keyboards, percussion, and De Lory's own harmonium playing--the music serves De Lory's stunning voice to perfection. --Michael Wells

Album Description

Well-known as one of Madonna's longtime featured vocalist, Donna De Lory has written, produced and independently distributed her newest album, Bliss. Donna and her musical partner cellist, Cameron Stone came from wildly varying backgrounds to forge a common bond in their love of music. For Donna, music was ingrained in her soul literally before her birth in Malibu Canyon, CA. Her grandfather played upright bass and cello for the Warner Bros.Studio Orchestra, her father was a studio musician and producer for people like The Beach Boys,Phil Spector and Glen Campbell, and her mother a singer/dancer. Donna was formerly signed with MCA Records as a solo artist in 1993, where her self-titled debut spawned a number-one hit in Japan and a top 10 song on the Billboard dance charts. In 1994, after finishing a world tour with Madonna, she hooked up with now partner Cameron Stone and created the music for BLISS. BAND_MEMBERS: The current band includes Cameron Stone (Tracy Chapman, Jewel) on cello and guitar, bassist, Mark Browne (Melissa Etheridge), Donna De Lory playing harmonium, werlitzer & percussion and drummers, Jay Bellerose (Paula Cole)and Quinn.

reminds me of someone.......2001-07-21

i first heard Donna De Lory on a movie called Women Of The Night. the movie was ok, but i loved the soundtrack, which was mostly Donna De Lory. she has a nice mellow voice that is easy to relax to. i love the cd, which was hard to find. it's a wonderful cd to relax to, but it still has a few upbeat tracks.

Beyond Bliss.......2001-05-31

Listen to this album and you will quickly realise that Donna De Lory is a songwriting talent to take notice of. I defy any serious music lover not to fall in love with the heart-tugging poems set to sweeping musical tracks. The personal topics on this collection seem to cover everything from death to romantic daydreams.

Donna's voice is instantly recognisable and immensely unforgetable. Anyone with a passing interest in popular culture will know of her Madonna connection of many years. Buy this CD and see how Donna has transcended the Material Girls's world of throw -away pop to create a blissful masterpiece.

Hypnotic. Mesmerizing. Sensual........2001-04-08

I picked up bliss because the sticker on the outside said Madonna thought her work was worth listening to. She was understateably correct. I am looking forward to another Donna De Lory CD.

Great CD.......2001-03-13

I agree with many of the others who reviewed this CD. It is beautiful and original. I enjoyed it very much and hope this is not the last I hear of Donna De Lory.

DONNA "Simply Amazing".......2000-09-15

Donna's Album "Bliss" it's simply amazing. I have been a Donna Fan since her 1st Album came out. The voice of this lady it's just touching and emotional. The lyrics of the songs are beautiful and the music makes you travel through all different kinds of emotions. I will really recommend this Album to you and also will suggest you to go see Donna LIVE! it is an experiece you will not forget. Donna is very nice to her fans and spends time listening to what WE have to say. I have some pretty cool LIVE pixs, feel free to email me if you want me to share them. Thanks! and enjoy ... BLISS

Fennell's masterpieces extend beyond Tokyo.......2004-08-05

Fennell has produced the most extraordinary recordings with the Tokyo Kosei winds and this cd is no exception. I purchased this cd to get a wider view of his conducting brilliance. Every song is played with perfection (besides a few trumpet blips on A Chorus Line Medley). If you have never heard Carmen Dragon's version of America the Beautiful you must. Having played it several times it is a wonderfully composed piece. The Dallas brass ring triumphant throughout this cd. And the woodwinds are exceptional. This is a great value and you must purchase it if you are a fan of wind ensemble music. The disc is full of energetic pieces typical of Fennell's music selections.

Fennell Finds Gold on the Beach.......2000-07-02

This 1994 recording of Frederick Fennell and the Dallas Wind Symphony is nothing short of outstanding. It combines Broadway and classical pieces with a wide variety of just plain entertaining fare. Beguine for Band highlights the mellow sounds of woodwinds sprinkled with the excitement of brass and percussion. The Chorus Line medley is Broadway all the way. Numerous seldom heard but utterly enjoyable pieces round out the album. It is sure to delight anyone who has played in a high school or college band. But its entertainment value is not limited to those folks. It's a good choice for everyone who wants to add fun to their music listening.

Lots of good string music for a low Naxos price.......2005-05-24

I enjoy listening to music for strings because of the beautiful cyclic vibrations that somehow are able to encode so much humanity and heaven like Huffman could never imagine.

Most of this music was new to me, and I did not know what to expect (quite honestly I didn't have high expectations). But after hearing Elgar's "Sospiri" on the radio I thought I would give it a try. I found the rest of the cd also quite good; especially Vaughan Williams's "Charterhouse Suite" which, along with "Sospiri" and Haydn Wood's "Fantasy Concerto", are my favorite compositions from this recording.

Conductor David Lloyd Jones knows this territory well and brings out the best in these English compositions. Also, the recording seems very clear and well balanced.

People seem so curious about what to put in their diets to live longer and be more healthy. How about more string music in your mental diet for becoming more tender, patient, and even romantic in your ways? And for other forms of international string cuisine, try Naxos #553106 for some Scandinavian string music (Grieg's "Holberg Suite" is one of my favorite piecies of all time!).

A worthy follow up to last year's first volume..........2001-04-03

I've loved music for strings ever since I first heard Tchaikovsky's "Serenade for Strings". The English too know how to compose works for string orchestra and they did so often: this is Naxos' fourth disc of English music for strings and the second in the "English String Miniatures" series featuring David Lloyd-Jones conducting: this time he leads the English Northern Philharmonia. The conductor is a champion of English composers and once again he delivers some outstanding performances.

Some of the items here are more familiar than most of those found on the first disc - Elgar's yearning "Sospiri" tugs at the heart strings everytime. And the present works of Delius and Warlock have been recorded many times. But there is plenty of less frequently heard items as well - Ireland's "The Holy Boy", Geoffrey Bush's "Consort Music", and Haydn Wood's Fantasy-Concerto were all delightful new discoveries for me.

We're even treated to Ralph Vaughan Williams' "Charterhouse Suite" - a nice change from the "Fantasia on Greensleeves" which seems to find its way onto every "classics for relaxation" or "meditation" CD out there.

The all digital recording is beautifully balanced. The strings are rich and clear. Almost 70 minutes of pleasure. Another excellent release from Naxos. (Pick up volume 1 as well if you don't have it already.)
