 Magnificent, 2007-12-07
I purchased this because I was a huge fan of Con Te Partiro and the English language version which is the duet Time to Say Goodbye with Sarah Brightman. The man's voice and vocal range are absolutely outstanding, and the tracks on this album allow him to show that off to full effect. A great album for fans of Bocelli, or anyone who misses Pavarotti.

Perfect Christmas Escape, 2003-12-13
Settle down in a comfy chair with a mince pie and glass of wine and turn up the volume - pure escapism from the hassles of Christmas shopping!The collection mixes traditional carols (so you can sing along and relive those days in the choir) with slighly lesser known Christmas fare. As you would expect of King's, all the carols are extremely well executed and with over 76 minutes of playing time you've got the chance to pig out on a good few mince pies. Bliss!

Simply Wonderful Listening, 2001-12-21
I have tried to buy this again for two years and I am thrilled it has been re-released. The CD is filled with many classical tunes that featured as THE Christmas TV tunes in my childhood and teens e.g. the Timex advert. Great tunes combined with good artists and best of all, not what you hear playing in all the supermarkets! A truely "Classey" classic that I would recommend to anyone who likes good music.

Salvation Army
The Salavtion Army Together, 2008-11-29
A good mixture of religous and popular music. William Booth said "Why should the Devil have all the best tunes"?
Why should he the Band get over their message and it is easy to listen to.
The Salvation Army I belive are making the money not the record company.
My wife said she could listen to it easily and she is not a brass band enthusiast.
Look forward to the next one.

Fron Male Voice Choir
Great way to add to an already surperb collection!, 2008-11-10
The previous two offerings by the Fron Male Voice Choir have been outstanding in quality, and this new release is no different. Featuring a new collection of songs, the excellence that this choir brings to the music world is unbelievable!
Welsh choirs have always been known for their musical talent, and it's certainly no wonder the Fron Choir is on their third release!

Artist:
Andrea Bocelli
Incanto is the first studio album from Italian operatic star Andrea Bocelli since 2006's Amore, stop-gapped of course by last year's Vivere. Now twenty albums deep and heading for 70 million sales worldwide, there doesn't seem to be much Bocelli can do wrong, though perhaps key to his success is his refusal to rest on his laurels--to always present a considered and varied selection of material. On Incanto he again offers a well-selected mix of folk songs, operatic evergreens and musical hits. Opening with a stunning collaboration with singer Veronica Berti, "Un Amore Cosi Grande" ("A Love So Great") the album gets off to an impassioned start. A romantic thread is weaved through "O Surdato Nnammurato", Cesare Andrea Bixio's "Mamma", and "Voglio Vivere Cosi", while album highlights include Neopolitan classic "Santa Lucia" and the 19th century folk song "Funiculi Funicula"--an ode to the first funicular on Mount Vesuvius. Add to that the soaring "Because", and the sweeping "Era De Maggio" (featuring Anna Bonitatibus) and you have what is arguably Bocelli's best collection since Romanza. --Danny McKenna
Brilliant!, 2008-11-06
How wonderful that Andrea has left the "Vegas type" songs behind!! This album is superb and we listened to it 3 times in succession before stopping. Every song (old & new to us) was up to the high standard we expect and love to hear. These are the type of popular semi-operatic songs that Andrea can sing so much better than old Englebert hits!

 A Fine Collection Of Great Compositions, 2008-11-15
This review only gives 4 stars because most of the tracks have already been included on one or two of Rutter's previous CD's. Having said that, this is the Ultimate Collection, so that is to be expected. So if you have most of the previous releases, there's maybe not much point in buying this, except of completeness, however, if you don't have them, I'd definitely recommend it.

You can't go far wrong with this, 2008-11-08
For anybody who watched the series earlier in 2008, this is a must. It contains all the best songs from the final weeks of the series, although none of the earlier weeks seem to have been included. (Maybe this is because the earlier weeks were a bit ropey at times!)
The only downside is that Last Minute seem to have been excluded, and I know many others like myself, thought they were a real hit. On the whole though, very worthwhile.
