An extraordinary evening which I remember so well. It was this LIVE televised event that the great MARIAN ANDERSON made her last public appearance. How wonderful. Re; THE MUSIC and THE PERFORMANCE== STELLAR. Kathleen BATTLE is at the TOP..absolute TOP of her MOMENT in History. NORMAN is ravishing MORE SO, the CHOIR and the choral arrangements of the organist Syvlia [ ] are spectacular. THE Choral singing and arrangements are a GLORIOUS TRIBUTE to HALL JOHNSON. In fact they take the best of Hall Johnson and embellish upon that style: GORGEOUS. RECOMMENDED
This is one of the best CD's for African American Spirituals that has ever been recorded. I am so very much enjoying it, especially as I'm driving. Treat yourself and purchase this recording if you enjoy quality music.

Wonderful concert with outstanding and gorgeous voices. I have heard it long time ago, and I wanted to have it in CD to listen to it, while at work. The quality of the recording is superb.
