Richard Crooks - Panis Angelicus Élégie
Review by Abe Delgado
Panis Angelicus Élégie is a stunning album by American tenor Richard Crooks. This album, released in 1946, showcases Crooks' powerful yet delicate voice in a collection of beautiful and emotional pieces.
The album begins with the titular track, "Panis Angelicus," a hymn composed by César Franck. Crooks' rendition of this piece is truly breathtaking, with his voice soaring effortlessly over the orchestration. The album also features a number of other religious pieces, including "Ave Maria" and "The Lord's Prayer," which Crooks performs with great reverence and sincerity.
In addition to the religious pieces, Panis Angelicus Élégie also includes a number of romantic and melancholic songs, such as "None But the Lonely Heart" and "O Promise Me." Crooks' emotive voice is perfectly suited to these pieces, conveying a sense of deep longing and yearning.

Crooks was obviously in top form when he recorded it. Damn shame.
