Reviews

Handel: Israel in Egypt (Jun 23, 2008)
Reviewer:Enock Warinda
Very cool and invigorating performance. May GOD bless those who sing these songs, for they greatly have great inspirational potential. Songs like "He spake the Word", "He gave them Hailstones for rain", and "Sing ye to the Lord"
