Il Divo - The Promise

Rating

I recently received an email featuring Il Divo singing Amazing Grace, As I had already purchased this CD from Overstock, I purchased it for my son (a big city detective who loves classical music) for his birthday. Overstock sent it directly to him and he was thrilled.I have dealt with Overstock for several years now and I give them a 5-star rating for product availability, affordable prices and, most importantly, customer service.

This is a really great CD to listen to. Because of the 4 different male voices and their choice of songs, the CD is very interesting to listen to, and remains interesting, even after numerous "LISTENS." I really like this group, and how they are sounding more cohesive and wonderful with each new recording. They have an active touring schedule around the U.S. and Canada this year, so I would encourage everyone to attend one of their concerts. Once you do, you will be hooked on IL DIVO. They are truly a contemporary group with a very "international" sound, as they record songs in a variety of different languages. This is an excellent CD to give to "someone who has everything." I bought two of these CD's, one as a gift for my friend. He had the same reaction as I did. He keeps playing it and playing it and playing it . . right before he drifts off to sleep. Hearing these men sing is one super experience. My favorite singer is the one from Spain. His classically trained operatic voice LEAPS OFF the CD!!

I enjoyed "The Promise" by Il DIvo. The strength of the voices of these amazingly gorgeous men carries the music into the place that gives me the "goosebumps" I love to feel when listening to a perfectly carried note.My favorite track was "La Luna" , followed by "Angelina" . The way the name was sung was enough to make me want to change my name from Sherri to Angelina.The harmony this group of men (did I mention they are gorgeous?) possesses is such a gift to them and to those of us blessed with listening .I must admit though that I suffered one disappointment .Amazing Grace is such a beautiful song and a perfect opportunity for harmony to move those who are listening and I did not feel that justice was done to this time honored song . The strength of their voices was certainly there , but I found it somewhat lacking in , for lack of a better word , emotion. It seemed that whenever the group has performed this song "live" they have the ability to make it blend into perfection , but somehow they did not manage the same when it was recorded for the album.There are no regrets in having this album in my collection and I look foward to their next one!

This CD is just what I needed. I am a stay at home mom to 2 busy little boys and by the end of the day, I need my mommy time. So, I grab my bath salts, scented candles and Il Divo The Promise CD and I take a long, much needed bath. The music is so soft and soothing, helping to calm my nerves and relax easier.
