Luciano Pavarotti • Panis Angelicus

I decided to class up the joint a bit this week, and bring in one to be most recognizable voice of the past century, the last Luciano Pavarotti. In this first clip, he sings "Panis Angelicus", a hymn Sacris solemniis written by Saint Thomas Aquinas for the Feast of Corpus Christi.

In the second and final clip of the morning, I figure you cannot go wrong with Pavarotti singing "Ave Maria". Well, you can't go wrong with Pavarotti period, but he certainly has such beautiful depth, a wonderful take on the song.

Happy Sunday!

Christmas Music - Josh Groban - Hymns

He's cute, but damn can he sing. His voice can give me goose-bumps, and often does. I posted about his carols, which are very good, but it is tough to top him on the hymns. Between him and Anthony Callea, I would hate to decide who I'd rather listen to, and just be incredibly happy I can listen to both. I hope to hear Josh sing live - I really hope Chess comes to Broadway sometime soon. All I can say is sit back and enjoy this voice. It is magical.

O Come All Ye Faithful


Silent Night


Thankful
