Review by Kari Ulrich

Lift High The Cross is a beautiful album by the Concordia Choir, conducted by Paul J Christiansen. The album contains a selection of traditional hymns and contemporary compositions, all arranged and performed with the choir's signature precision and passion.

The album opens with the title track, "Lift High The Cross", a powerful hymn that sets the tone for the rest of the album. The choir's harmonies are tight and soaring, and the organ accompaniment adds depth and richness to the sound.

Other highlights on the album include "O Sacred Head, Now Wounded", a hauntingly beautiful hymn that showcases the choir's ability to convey deep emotion through their singing, and "How Lovely Is Thy Dwelling Place", a jubilant piece that features intricate vocal harmonies and a lively tempo.

Throughout the album, the Concordia Choir's commitment to excellence is evident in every note they sing. Christiansen's direction is masterful, bringing out the best in each singer and creating a cohesive, powerful sound.
