I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes
William Jewell College Concert Choir
Conductor Anthony J. Maglione has carefully selected texts that invite us to wrestle with ancient and timeless mysteries and think about how they are relevant to our present day. The centerpiece of the recording is Adolphus Hailstork's I Will Lift Up Mine Eyes, a three-movement cantata based on psalm texts. The William Jewell College Concert Choir is composed of the very best undergraduate choral singers who attend William Jewell College. The choir tours the United States and travels regularly to England and Scotland to perform. Anthony Maglione studied at Westminster Choir College, East Carolina University and the University of California, Los Angeles.

"William Jewell College may be a small school in a modest-sized town but music there is big time and their choir is world-class. This is a flat-out gorgeous program with light, zippy Pärt; a sumptuously dark "Lord, Now Lettest"by Nicholas Reeves; and pinpoint dynamic control in Albert Becker's spiritually rapt "Ich bin die Auferstehung"all hitting you right off the bat. If you'd fancy meeting up with one of America's very best college choirs, look no further."
