The newest release of music by Margaret Ruthven Lang, All the Heart of Me: The Choral Music of Margaret Ruthven Lang gets a rave review from Amazon.com customer “Guiraud.”
“This album gives us insight into the music of American composer Margaret Lang (1867-1972) who unfortunately destroyed most of her music leaving only these works. The recording is very good with Grammy Award winner Matthew Snyder doing the final mixing and mastering. The Crane Chorus sounds very good: singing with a focused forte when appropriate and with a lovely warmth in softer passages, and everywhere with a discipline of articulation and phrasing. The recently discovered orchestra parts give a glimpse to what her ground breaking compositions for the Boston and Chicago orchestra must have sounded like. The sacred music is touching and sincere with The Heavenly Noel a masterpiece.”
