Re: Musical gems

Ooooh, well I have some of those you picked for your albums in mine, but not all of it... And I think my methodology was a bit different :lol: Let's start with the DVD. I made a list of great solos/soloists I wanted to include in the DVD, and decided it would be half live-performances, half studio-...

Re: Musical gems

I have gone with varied repertoire to appeal to everybody. This has taken a lot longer than I anticipated because I had to make sure I wasn’t just picking my favorites. 1) O Beata 2) Three ravens 3) Home 4) Angele Dei 5) Wayfaring Stranger 6) Ave Virgo 7) Sing for our world 8) Orinoco Flow 9) God o...

Re: Musical gems

Great choices, everyone! I'm only surprised that James Mordaunt's exquisite "Touch the Sky" (composed by Ben Crawley and recorded on PEACE, 2010) hasn't made an appearance. I seem to have a weakness for some other more obscure pieces, several of which have never appeared in concert. For i...

Nah, just perform it at a concert and recreate the movements from 2009 or 2010 - much better than AI 😁

Re: Musical gems

So here are some of the best videos that I feel would introduce Libera to a brand new audience . I will mention Time , Far Away , COTB and Ave Verum but the videos are already up so I won’t clog up on the page. Is it not time we got a new DVD thinking about it 8) I have added a few more I had forgo...

Re: Musical gems

Yorkie some amazing tracks you have picked but definitely some I wouldn’t have gone for. I will have to sit down and do a list. Mine would be a lot more uneven because some of the early tracks I would go with more than the current stuff. You also reminded me it’s still an absolute travesty that Tom...

Re: Musical gems

Now for my CD. This was harder than the DVD but due to Libera’s habit or recycling tracks across multiple CD albums there was wriggle room to get in many (but sadly no all) of the tracks I appreciate. As stated above, I am not repeating any of the songs from the DVD and I am selecting one track from...

Re: Musical gems

So, the premise is to create a two-disc album, one of tracks and one of videos, called “Libera: Great Performances” from the 1999+ period. An interesting idea and I hope that other members will share their lists as well. Although not stipulated in the original challenge, I decided that I would not r...

Re: Musical gems

OK, here's a good January pastime: You're compiling a two-disc album called LIBERA:GREAT PERFORMANCES, featuring Libera songs and videos, beginning with the group's "official" founding in 1999. One disc is a CD, the other a DVD.The CD is composed of up to 12-14 audio tracks; the DVD conta...

Re: Carol of the Bells Review

I just realized that COTB now has 28 million hits. It obviously resonates with a large audience :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Yes, it piles on around 3 million views each December + a steady amount over the rest of the year. Interesting that the 2010 video has basically frozen at 10 million views and no long...

Re: Forever (Spring 2023)

1.5 million! Not a surprise to me. What is interesting is that the only two other song to get significant listens are the covers of Love Shine a Light & God Only knows. Not sure how many people would have selected LSAL as the song with the second most number of plays (apart from me of course :w...

Re: 2023 - Two UK Concerts in December

Thanks for your detailed review Yorkie. I'm not sure I understand about the 7 parts of Libera. Do you mean they break down the harmonics into 7 different tone sets? Why won't you get to prove it again? Yes the part where Dan conducts the boys to sing part of Libera to show the layers of harmonies t...
