Posted November 5, 200618 yr I just saw an ad for these on TV and they sounded amazing! :wub: I usually hate classical music, but these sound really good - and they're doing a cover of May It Be. ^_^ http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/88697019802.JPG Oct 2006 From the label that brought you Il Divo, comes the truly amazing Angelis. Defying the expectations of classical music with an emotion and vocal maturity that belies their youth, the group's combined skill forms a sound that is truly traditional with a vibrant, modern streak. Following an exhaustive search that lasted 2 years, the best new choral voices in the UK have come together in a stunning formation. Hand-selected from around the UK by choral experts, their album lends inspiration from past and present, with interpretations of songs across a range of genres. Together, they have created their recording with one of the world's most successful producers, Steve Mac, whose acclaimed work includes 30 UK Number 1's from artists including Il Divo, Westlife, Mariah Carey and Kelly Clarkson. Boasting 12-tracks – 11 by Steve Mac - Angelis' debut album offers dynamic harmonies with relentless energy and is delivered with aplomb. Highlights include the beautiful Sarah McClachlan song 'Angel' plus contemporary versions of classical hymns including 'O Holy Night' and 'Pie Jesu', plus interpretations of Enya's 'May It Be' and Eva Cassidy's 'Over The Rainbow'. Each accomplished performers in their own right, they hail from choirs that include the Royal Scottish National Opera and New London's Children's Choir.

November 9, 200618 yr Hmm, that sounds really interesting! I noticed they're also doing a cover of "Pokarekare Anna", I've never heard anyone but Hayley Westenra sing that one. I'll have to see if I can track this one down. B)
November 12, 200618 yr Author Just listened to May It Be, pretty good - not half as good as the original though of course! The album on a whole is very good though. :wub:
