Album Description

Christopher Parkening, whose remarkable life and career were recently chronicled in his autobiography and companion CD, Grace Like a River, described the young baritone Jubilant Sykes as "phenomenally gifted". Through the years, as Christopher and Jubilant's friendship grew, so did the scope of their individual careers. The two performed together in concert quite frequently so the idea of recording together seemed a natural progression. When Christopher Parkening and Jubilant Sykes walked into Capitol Studios' famous Studio A, where so many legendary artists have recorded, something special was going to happen. This recording, aptly named Jubilation, is a musical journey through Brazil, Spain and the Americas.

Customer Reviews:

Excellent Duo.......2007-04-10

This CD is a collection of music both traditional and modern. Christopher Parkening and Jubilant Sykes are a perfect match for the completion of perfection in this collection of music. Christopher Parkening's performance of solos are brilliant and heart felt. Jubilant Sykes is excellent as well and his deep tones mix so well with the gentle harmony of the classical guitar. This is a must for any music library.

Dynamic Duo .......2007-04-03

Going out on a limb here. This cd may be as good or better than Pleasures of Their Company. There is some real magic going on here. Christopher's sensativity and willingness to let Jubilant take the spot light is really what makes this cd for me. The tunes with the vocalise are particularly satisfying. It's just great to see Christopher continue to put out such quality work so many years into his career. I have seen them play some of these tunes live and hope to again someday in the near future. If you like this cd check them out live... at times I thought Jubilant's voice was going to bring the ceiling down.

Worth the wait!!!.......2007-03-25

After hearing Jubliant and Christopher on a Christmas tour a couple years ago I have been waiting for them to record something since... Finally!!! After listening I am just amazed by Jubliant's virtuoso voice. I think all the Americal Idol hopefuls should really listen to true God given talent versus copying commerical radio stars. Amazingly good voice. Now, I have been playing guitar for 18+ years and am an avid player and fan of classical guitar. Christopher Parkening has always been my inspiration for starting and he shows no signs of letting up on his wonderful styling, phrasing and best of all his sound! This was a match made in Heaven. Literally!

Worth the wait!.......2007-03-16

Finally, these two great musicians who have toured this music for over a year have recorded a delightful collection of songs, spirituals and solo guitar works. Sykes' voice is complimented by Parkening's masterful playing of the classical guitar. I highly recommend this recording. What a treat!

PACKING FOR ARGENTINA.......2007-02-27

This recording of contemporary Guitar music of Argentina is played magnificently by Victor Villadangos. After listening to this splendid recording, I had fantasies of sitting in a café in Buenos Aires drinking strong coffee. Some of my favorites compositions on the album that I particularly loved are Hector Ayala 7 part "Serie Americana" Narsico Saul's "Boulevard San Jorge" Maximo Pujol's 5 part "Suite #1', and Carlos Guastino's "Sonata No.1" .

All in all, I loved this recording; it certainly put me in the mood to go to Argentina.

An outstanding album with some surprising music.......2004-01-26

The repertoire here ranges into more diverse styles of composition, and so presents more variety, than the recent John Williams album of music from Venezuela. All of the music here, however, is eminently engaging. Several of the composers obviously are highly aware of, and incorporate, a variety of idioms including jazz, indigenous music, and even a touch of rock and New Age--or so it seems to this listener--leading to some highly original moments. None of these twentieth century composers seems at all adverse to writing music with recognizeable (and at times even memorable) tunes--although this may make them quite unacceptable to certain "modernists." Maximo Pujol seems to have the most original voice, and shows both energy and wit in his compositions. The music by Saul comes closest to being bland, but it too has its ingenious moments. Victor Villandangos--who I had never heard of before--proves to be a fine guitarist who produces a generally full and pleasing tone and shows highly accomplished technique. A little more tonal variation on his part might have lent even more interest to the album, but it is hard to fault it in any way, especially at its bargain price. Even the sound is quite good. Along with the Villa-Lobos album by Norbert Kraft, this is one of the finest guitar albums issued by this label--and would do any full-price label proud as well.

wonderful recording.......2000-02-21

I've listened to this beatiful recording. Both pieces and performers are really great and I hope we can get other album of these artists in the near future. It is very interesting to know that there are artists interested to commission and perform new works, specially from Latinamerica. Franzetti's and Romero's works are wonderful and one has the pleasure to listen to their works in their world premiere recordings. Congratulations to the artists! Labels: take note of these artists!

Beautiful, sophisticated music. A truly great recording........1999-08-15

I've been listening to classical music for twenty years, and I can't believe I never came across these Latin American compositions. It's wonderful, first-rate stuff, very modern AND very tonal and lyrical. The Franzetti is an amazing composition, sophisticated, well-paced, beautifully orchestrated. The Brouwer is a wonderfully crafted chamber piece, with the exotic sound of the marimba combined with the guitar and strings. Spirals, by Manly Romero, is a remarkably inspired piece by a young composer. The Guastavino is a little gem. Guitarrist Sergio Puccini is profoundly lyrical, and Robert Schwartz is a dazzling virtuoso of the piano (why haven't we heard him until now?). Flutist Angela Koregelos' playing in the Ginastera is mesmerizing. Maestro Moscovich is clearly at home with this difficult repertoire. He makes the Camerata sound expressive, full of conviction, engaging the listener throughout. A pleasure to listen to, again and again. I am into Latin American orchestral music now, thanks to this CD.

Amazing musicality and choice of repertoire!.......1999-02-22

This CD contains several gems in its repertoire, especially the "Concierto del Plata" by Carlos Franzetti. This work incorporates the best elements of music from both Argentina and the USA and is well played by its soloist, Sergio Puccini, and the San Francisco Camerata Americana, conducted by Jose Luis Moscovich. The other works are expertly conducted by Maestro Moscovich and one, composed by Manly Romero, features the excellent pianist Robert Schwartz. This is a must-buy CD for enthusiasts of Latin American music.

Great performance.......2002-11-21

I was very excited to hear Misa Criolla. I've heard it performed live on several different occasions and this performance is one of the best. I want to applaud the tenor soloist, Ken Goodenberger, for beautiful, lyrical singing - even though I had to look long and hard to find his name! The warmth and beauty of his voice sent chills through my body. The Boys Choir sang with excellent intonation mostly, and nice musicality. The accompaniment by Khenani was superb. What a great feeling they have for this piece! All in all, this recording demonstrates excellence in singing and musicality from the Phoenix Boys Choir.

WOW!.......2002-10-24

WOW! The Phoenix Boys Choir has done it again. Every time they just seem to get better and better. This CD Has world class voices singing world class music. The latin theme means all the songs have a wonderful rhythm and great spanish text. And the classical pieces in Latin are the most amazing sounds you have ever heard. Only a choir of this caliber could produce a CD as good as this. it is a must have for any fan of choral, classical, or south-american music!

Clasicos de las Americas has Good Gottschalk.......2004-02-23

This six CD set has the Central and South American greats, but I prefer the North American who did some of his best composition South of the border. Louis-Moreau Gottschalk had the life of a modern day Rock Star. He is joined in this set by such prominent players as Heitor Villa-Lobos, George Gershwin, Augustin Barrios, and Carlos Guastavino. George Rabol is a favorite pianist.
