We buy the same Libera "opendisc" CD's as anywhere in the world,
but we have not access to the same "exclusive" contents ! :lol:

... how frustrating ! ! ! :?
It might just be a delay in the admin updating their March new release section, as I notice your version only shows February, or should I say Février ;)

This is the link too the aforementioned DVD http://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/articles/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... /38818/p1/
Libera to release fifth album 'Peace' in March
EMI CLASSICS are set to release the fifth album by world renowned boy soprano ensemble Libera on 8th March. 'Peace' will draw from material as wide ranging as plain song and traditional hymns through to Mozart, Chopin and modern choral master John Rutter. Libera tours are currently being arranged in Japan, South Korea, the USA and Britain. A luxury CD plus DVD edition of 'Peace' will be released by EMI Classics in November 2010.
Well done crossrhythms if your right, you've got the scoop out first.

Edit: fan_de_LoK just pipped me...

drat we have to wait to November for the DVD release....

I have finally listened to them.

First thoughts are

None of the songs grab me like " Time" did sadly , and The Fountin i think is the best out of the 4 tracks. Exsultate i think would of worked better with a softer gentler tone or just a yonger kid.

Lacrymosa is odd as it kinda sounds like Mini Ben at the beginning with his new voice but why re-release this with Ben ? its on a different album. Seems like a complete waste of a track.

Hope you're right but not too optimist about that, we have already 2 March's CDs in our list... :roll: :wink:

There will always be songs on an album that not everyone likes. I quite like Exsultate, I think it could grow on me. It's a refreshing, breezy track, that for some strange reason, I think would sound great peformed live. It does have a 'Gaudete feel about it' I like the supplementary 'lower voices' in this too.

I think I'm with you on Lacrymosa. It does sound like a remake with (the now not so) Mini-Ben, and not sure the reason for this. He still does very well with it though.

The Fountain could grow on me too, it's very soothing and calming. I think it could be a new soloist for this song. I'm guessing Jacob (pls let it be Jacob lol) or maybe Daniel Fontanez. Whoever sings it, they did a great job on it.

More confirmation on the possible DVD release ... http://www.entertainment-focus.com/news" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ... lbum-peace

I've caught the first 2 mins of Ave Virgo Libera Peace.mp3 - 1.91MB gives you a taster. I'll try and get you and other's not able to access opendisc, the other tracks sometime tomorrow.

Too late now, work in the morning.

At moment i am going with studio as it is tied with with Peace and i am also assuming you will then get some bonus tracks - so i think it will be some videos and then a few new songs to make it a deluxe version. That could be why there are only 12/13 tracks on this album.

I don't think this Opendisc feature works with the Philippine version "New Dawn". :( I'll have to wait till the weekend to check out those songs! :shock:

I confirm your concern Nikki, the recent philippin release of New Dawn is a EMI CD but it have not the "opendisc" feature... :?

Hmm...That is weird. Anyway, I hope they release the DVD here in Singapore. I wonder why they're announcing it now though. It could stop others from buying the March release if they haven't pre-ordered it yet.

Oh man. I can't stop listening to Ave Virgo. I've already memorized the lyrics. haha.

The songs are really refreshing!

I can't really tell who sang the respective songs, but it sounds really familar. I kind of have a feeling that Lacrymosa might be Alex.. or Jakob.. But it sounds a little Ben-ish at the end though.

what if you bought the New Dawn album on iTunes, but don't have an actual CD? because that's what i did. can you still listen to the tracks via the Opendisk thing? :(
