| | Dream A Dream Super-Audio CD Charlotte Church Discography of CDs
This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players.
The little girl with the big voice is back for a selection of popular Christmas songs and carols, ranging from the medieval "Coventry Carol" to the brand new title track, whose chorus will be recognized by classical music fans as the "Pavan" of Gabriel Faure. In between are pop standards like "Winter Wonderland" and Mel Torme's "Christmas Song" as well as some less familiar fare such as the delicate calypso "Mary's Boy Child" and the Welsh "Draw Tua Bethlehem". Much of the program features big, lush orechestral arrangements with Church's voice at full throttle, but several tracks deliver less most effectively, such as the lovely, simple choral accompaniment to Michael Praetorius' "Lo How a Rose E'er Blooming" or the opening verse of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," sung solo with no instruments at all.
Recorded at Blackheath Concert Halls and Air Studios, London, England.
Personnel includes: Charlotte Church (vocals); Sian Edwards (conductor); London Symphony Orchestra.

Thirteen year old Welsh soprano Charlotte Church has had a whirlwind year following her multiplatinum debut VOICE OF AN ANGEL. After becoming the youngest artist ever to land the number one album on the classical charts, she then performed for Pope John Paul II, The Prince of Wales, President Clinton and made numerous television appearances. She now returns with her sophomore effort, a self titled album of mostly arias.
"Just Wave Hello", produced by Trevor Horn and written especially for Charlotte, is the Ford television campaign song. It is a beautiful tune featuring an angelic choir and a drum track for a pop feel. "Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer" features the London Welsh Male Voice Choir and shows what her voice is truly capable of, as it soars to breathtaking heights. There is a variety of material also, as Charlotte does a wonderful version of Gershwin's "Summertime" (from 'Porgy and Bess').
Superb playing by the London Symphony Orchestra and excellent arrangements accompany the majestic vocals. Exceeding VOICE OF AN ANGEL, Charlotte Church shines throughout.

Dream A Dream CD music
$18.55 This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players.
In an era when most teen singers find fame by aiming squarely at the contemporary R&B/pop nexus a la Britney Spears, young vocal phenomenon Charlotte Church took an unusual path to success, moving between the worlds of classical music and old-school popular song stylings. ENCHANTMENT, Church's most pop-oriented release to date, focuses on the Great American Songbook, as the singer lends her voice to the compositions of greats like Hammerstein/Kern ("'Can't Help Lovin' Dat Man") and Bernstein/Sondheim ("Tonight"). The young lady's angelic voice lends a lighter-than-air quality to these standards, and the lush orchestrations provide the sonic equivalent of fluffy pillows for the singer to lounge ...

This is a Super Audio CD playable only on Super Audio CD players.
This stellar line-up, recorded live in Vienna, performs a program of quintessential Christmas songs in a rich variety of styles, from the light pop of "My Favorite Things" to traditional Spanish tunes such as "Hacia Belen Va Un Burro" and English equivalents like "Angels We Have Heard on High." Tony Bennett kicks the whole thing off with a typically warm rendition of "The Christmas Song." He's followed by a pretty straight reading of "O Holy Night" by the Welsh teen classical prodigy Charlotte Church and the inimitable Placido Domingo, and Vannessa Williams' gospel-tinged version of "Do You Hear What I Hear?"
It's an evening of familiar favorites, impeccably performed, with the added bonus of the Gumpoldskirchner Spatzen Children's ...
