Advantages: Her voice is sublime, and improving all the time Disadvantages: Album full of Christmas songs does not encourage replaying
CharlotteChurch, the fourteen year old Welsh soprano with, apparently, the "voice of an angel" has released this album (as she did her previous two albums) to coincide nicely with the Christmas rush. Therefore I'm sure lots of people, like me, will have found them playing the CD over the days following Christmas.
Unfortunately for those who find this stretching their Christmas stocking, the CD is full of Christmas songs and carols. Now, I might be a bit mean-spirited, but don't you just hate CDs full of Christmas songs - let's face it - the next time I'll be playing this album will be in 50 weeks from now!
Still, there is an impressive songlist on the CD, 20 tracks in total, every one Christmas orientated (tedious to the extreme), and I'm afraid after listening to half of them, I had to have a break before I could listen to ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Charlotte Church
his is CharlotteChurch's most mature album, she sings hits from musicals a couple of classical pieces and folk pieces.
I can't consider CharlotteChurch a real soprano like Kathleen Battle for example.
Her voice has some some technical problems but still CharlotteChurch's voice is very beautiful!This album brings up some of her non-classical abilities which I think should be more explored.
Tonight - An emotive opening song, from the famous musical by Leonard Bernstein, it's very strong with a lot of horns in the orchestra.
Carrickfergus - A very very sweet folkloric piece about love, it's got some poppy beats along with the orchestra but it's still very beautiful, there's a videoclip for this music.
Habanera - I just love Church's reedition of Carmen's Habanera, the most special thing is the arrangement made by canadian ...
Advantages: Beautifully Sung Disadvantages: Her choice of song may change
One Saturday evening towards the end of 2002, I was making a cup of coffee in the kitchen, when I heard this amazing voice coming from the TV next door. The voice belonged to a woman who was singing “Bridge Over Troubled Water”, and it sounded fantastic! I rushed next door to see who it was, and found that it was CharlotteChurch, who was being interviewed by Michael Parkinson! This was the first song I had ever heard her sing which was not operatic or classical, and I was really impressed. So when my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I had no trouble asking for “Prelude” her latest album. I shall now endeavour to give my opinions on each track and the album as a whole.
Pie Jesu - from Requiem by Andrew Lloyd Webber
This is one of her most famous songs, and is lovely to listen to. This was made ...
If you can get into Enya, then this is in my opinion the best of her 5 albums and is a very passionate and romantic album, which is great with a glass of wine, candles, nice food, an open fire, followed by...........
There is none and I challange anyone to argue with me, ok!!! (*)
