Miserere, and Mysterium are two of my all-time favorites.
This is my current favorite recording of O Magnum Mysterium, even though, alas, no trebles!

Re: The Moon Represents My Heart - Single
I listened to the All-American Boys Choir version of the song. Their arrangement is very drab, diluting all that was beautiful and emotional in the song. I'm sure that the new Libera version (assuming it's a new recording) will continue to capture the essence of the composition, as did their earlier...

Re: New album is called Hope
Well they did change their name to Libera after all -- they're not bound to a specific musical style. And this freedom to explore options has always been there really, at least for the 28 years that I've been listening to them. I think the reason I enjoy a wide variety of their recordings is because...

Re: Santa will find you. Official video release.
I love this song.
I love how it sounds, how it's arranged, how well it's performed, and the message that it conveys.

Re: Introducing Libera
Maybe it would be different for others, but I would for sure play their more mainstream material, and not the more Libera like RP compositions, because they may not get their deserved attention. I wanted to show my movie "Libera Wrap Party" to the family, so I needed for them to understan...

Re: Philippines Tour 2016
Thanks for posting Nick - a trip to London and the Philippines in quick succession - I'm envious! Actually London, then Philippines, then London. I'm going to fly out there next week to see how they do on Mozart's Requiem at St Philip's. Will I see you there? I'm getting a lot of reading done on th...

Re: America the Beautiful Video
I just wrote to Allan Camp at the radio station to let him know about the typos in the article. He fixed them before I could finish my morning coffee.
It was particularly crucial since Libera just posted a link to the article!

Problem was taken care of. The blog really was written by JR, just attributed to the wrong author temporarily.alcesalcesobservator wrote:The blog says it's by "Nick", and the writing style is a little different, but it's under JR's blog heading.

Re: San Diego Concert
Libera is moving the San Diego concert to a new date (sometime in the October tour), and to a new venue (yet to be decided).
Here's JR's latest blog, discussing the changes.

The casino just has naming rights. The venue isn't part of the casino. It actually used to be called the San Diego International Sports Center.
Not that I'm a big expert. I had to ask Professor Google.

It appears that Libera may have to cancel their Washington show. But I'm sure the other venues will fill up.

Re: Washington Concert DVD
Just received my copy of the Libera in America CD. I wasn't expecting that it could do justice to the way they sounded live in Washington, but I was absolutely wrong. My gracious this sounds fantastic!

Re: Listening for a long, long time
In the US. I was a fan of choir music in general, so whenever I was in the record store I would always make a stop in the choral section and see if there was anything new. Then I saw Sing for Ever, and was really taken aback by how different it was from all the choir music I had ever heard. Instead ...
