Celine Dion Miracle: A Celebration of New Life Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I must admit, I've never owned a Geddes book before, nor have I looked at them in the past. I bought this wonderful CD/DVD/Book combination purely for the sake of Celine Dion's involvement. If not for her, it would not be on my bookshelf. Yet, I find Celine is only featured in less than 25% of the book, and I still find myself adoring the whole of this confection.
In regards to the CD, in response to the reviewer who cited this as a rehashing of recordings from past Dion releases, it is nothing of the sort. With the exception of Track 8, "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face", which regretably is the same recording found on the 1999 "All The Way..." compilation, the remainder of the songs found here are exclusive to this release. Believe me, I would know, I have the pleasure to own all Celine's releases in both English and French.
As far as the DVD goes, as a lone release it might seem a bit inadequite, lasting just over 21 minutes, yet as a companion to this magical book, it is utterly perfect, giving the viewer a gracious insite into the collaberation of Anne and Celine which brought forth this work which radiates both of these accomplished, respected ladies' devotion to children, and the Miracle that children are.
In looking at the book itself, there are no words to describe the depth of color, and clear detail, and respect each image has obviously been given. Each of these precious hopes for our future look fully at peace and beautifully positioned in each of the nearly hundred images found in this huge volume. In regards to the pictures featuring Dion, her own maternal instincts and love for these babies seems to radiate from the printed page. Yet when Celine is present, she seems to not in the least upstage the tiny beings she is suppoerting, instead your attention is first drawn to the innocent miracles she holds tenderly, and then to Dion herself.
This work is a purely perfect collaberation, and wonderful product for anyone. This is not only for the expecting mother, new mother, or grandmother, this is simply for anyone who loves life and the miracle of its beginning.

Lorie Line - The Heritage Collection Volume II: Songs of Inspiration (Piano Solo Personality) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Of my rather large library of sacred music, this book is my all-time favorite.If you are a really good sight-reader, you will find the majority of these pieces to be very manageable after just a few run-throughs.Some of the pieces near the end of the book are more challenging and will require more practice.I use this book ALL the time - when I play for church, during weddings, and for background music during dinners.The pieces are of good lengthand usually have a lovely introduction for the hymn tune as well as interludes between verses.I would describe the music as very relaxing, lush, yet simple, in kind of a new age kind of style.I think you will find this book's cost well worth it, especially since it's a good 50-some pages long.My favorite piece in this book is the very first one - a utterly gorgeous arrangement of "In The Garden".I would highly recommend this book to any church pianist.Happy playing!

With her unique style, Lorie line collected all the songs we'd like to play from the first time we've heard them. In case you're not sure, go the CD details, hear the examples of the songs and you'll know this is the next sheet music book you'll want to buy. Indeed music from the heart.
