Editorial Review: Amazon.com: If you thrill to the soaring operatic voices of The Three Tenors (and imagine every Christmas comes with its own orchestral majesty), Il Divo has made this disc for you. The four GQ-handsome male singers were handpicked by American Idol's Simon Cowell for what seems to be their ability to sing opera and classical music with the hint of a pop sensibility. Their Christmas Collection features 10 standards (although the last time Santa looked, he wasn't quite sure "Over the Rainbow" and "The Lord's Prayer" were part of the Christmas canon). Still, it' hard not to imagine these emotionally stirring renditions as part and parcel of the reverential treatment the four finely sculpted voices bring to more exact seasonal fare such as "O Holy Night," "Ave Maria," "Panis Angelicus" and even "White Christmas." Dave Arch's predictable choral and orchestral arrangements are aimed right at the sweet spot where sophisticated church choir music and traditional classical music meet, with few surprises other than the dash of Irish folk music that colors "When A Child Is Born." In the end, for people who have never heard of Cowell and his cohosts (would Paula Abdul really have picked the tenor guy for this group?!), this collection will prove just as rewarding for them as the best-selling Idol records are for fans of the TV stars. --Martin Keller Product Description: used-excellent cond Album Description: Japanese pressing includes Christmas card/poster with first pressing only.

![]() Rating: - ExcellentGreat songs, but I haven't figured out how "Over the Rainbow" belongs on this album?? Rating: - IL Divo albums- I purchased both albums you had offered and I love them both. The Christmas album was absolutely beautiful. I The PromiseI would recommend this album to anyone who appreciates good music. The singers have beautiful voices and the CD quality is remarkable. Rating: - Favorite Christmas Music!I love this cd. I played it every day of the Christmas season--sometimes more than once. These guys are the best. Rating: - Il Divo - Christmas CollectionWorth every penny. This cd is amazing. I heard of this group when I saw a video of them doing Amazing Grace on the internet. They are phenomenal. I get chills every time I listen to the cd. There is one song on the cd that just doesn't fit, however...why would you put "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on a Christmas cd? That was weird...but the rest of the songs are classic and beautifully done. I would love to see them in concert...however, they only play the major cities and I can't jet off to ...

My disappointment is most of the songs are in Italian and as an English speaking person, a lot was lost not being able to understand the lyrics of the song. The CD cover should have been a little more forthcoming in describing the content. But again, this group could be the best male vocal group we have seen in many, many years.
