The 148-strong (if our math is right) San Diego Chorus cooks up some classic Sweet Adelines music here, ably accompanied by 2001 International Quartet Champions a cappella Gold (on 'If You Love Me, Really Love Me'), and Quartet medalists Fanatix (on 'I've Got the World On A String'). These women know how to belt them out, and our emotions are wonderfully tugged in many directions. We have the rousing and foot-stomping: ('South Rampart Street Parade,' 'It's A Great Day for the Irish,' 'Alexander's Ragtime Band,' and 'Rockabye Your Baby With A Dixie Melody.' And there's the sweet and sentimental: 'I've Got the World on a String,' 'If You Love Me, Really Love Me, and 'How Do You Keep The Music Playing.' Finally we have the Gospel/Christian: 'Go Tell It On The Mountain,' 'Sweet Hour of Prayer,' and the closing Gospel MedleyÐ'How Great Thou Art.' Inspiring, uplifting, tug-on-your-heartstrings stuff, beautifully performed! |
