Soprano and baritone duet on Charles Gounod's masterpiece. Beautiful melodies and rich harmonies accompanied with strings, harp and piano. Sang in English in order to clarify the meaning of lyrics.

Gounod's St. Cecilia Solemn Massitsmecassie wrote on May 09, 2008
Terrible,terrible, terrible .... it was not intended to be sung in English ... it sounds like a midi file and isn't even close what Gounod wrote. Waste of listening time. NO STARS ! BUT WAS FORCED BY THIS PROGRAM TO PROVIDE 1!
