very soft and comfy. Service is good arrive on time and in good order.American Apparel 5297 – Youth California Fleece Raglan Zip-Up Hoody
Awesome hoody, made simply and durably and in the United States and NOT in a sweat shop.
This is a very nice sweatshirt. medium weight.
BEWARE: the sizes run very small!! I got this as a part of a Halloween costume, so I really don’t mind this time around (once I’m done sewing on ears and a tail, I don’t think he’ll wear it again anyway), but my son is average size and 3 yrs old. I ordered the size 4 and it is tight on him! Fits more like a small side 2T.
Order AT LEAST one size up!!!!!

The case was broken and the insert is a mess. The CDs themselves are fine.
While I haven’t sampled that many different recordings of the Messiah, I really like this version. I sometimes find myself singing it, and this is the version I hear. One thing I don’t like about it is that it is a 2-disc set, but the Messiah has three parts. Part II is divided — the first half on disc 1 and the second part on disc 2. It would be nice if the parts weren’t divided in the middle.
A COLLECTIBLE FOR SURE!
The “Messiah” was composed by Handel at his London home in the late summer of 1741..Charles Jennens described his libretto for the ‘Messiah’ as a “Scripture Collection”, because it consists of a cleverly-arranged selection of biblical texts
In his Messiah Handel combines the sheer grandeur and power of his Germanic roots with the color of his Italian experience, joining with the unique flavor of the English language. His music can thus be powerful, like the tenor arioso ‘Thou shalt break them with a rod or iron’, or it can be colorful and skippy like the wonderful ‘For unto us a child is born’. Or it can be stirring and majestic like the ‘Hallelujah’ and ‘Amen’ choruses.
Musically speaking, the recitatives and arias are definately in a style derived from opera, supplemented by choruses of the type Handel has developed in his English odes and oratorios-the presentation of the story was unconventional. The work is divided into three acts or parts, but the narrative is largely confined to Part Two: Part One is mainly concerned with prophecy and its fullfilment and Part Three with commentary on the importance of the previous story.
This recording of the famous 1992 performance at Dublin took place at the Point Theatre on the 250th anniversary of the work’s premeire which took place in Dublin on April 13th 1742.
It is an outstanding performance, especially chorally and instrumentally. The soloists: Sylvia McNair(soprano)-Anne Sofie von Otter(mezzo)-Michael Chance (alto) were superb!!! Personally I was not pleased by Jerry Hadley’s interpretation of Handel; I have a recording of him singing show tunes, and I think he does that best! Robert Lloyd’s (bass) diction was most peculiar and annoyed me. However, the last 2 comments may not be universally accepted. All in all, it’s one of the best ‘Messiahs’ I have heard, and is actually my favorite of many that I own.
This is my fifth Messiah disk and I had hoped my last. Von Otter is a real draw and she is truly great. Marriner’s pacing is still good. But many aspects of this CD pull it down. I have a theory that the tenor (Jerry Hadley) was mad at Marriner and sang technically perfect with zero emotion. I don’t how he was allowed to get away with this. I also did not like the baritone. While I think varying the size of the chorus in this piece has merit, this choir is generally on the small side and does not have the punch when needed. Messiah choirs carry a two edged burden, either the choir is large and it gets muddy in the delicate sections or it is small and can’t punch the big sections. This disk errs on the small side. The recording quality is very good, something that dodges many Messiahs. The violins are too close to the soloist microphone (or poorly mixed) and come in much too loud. So whenever there is an sprite from the violins it jumps out at you and drowns the soloists.
The best Messiah for me is still Marriner’s 1976 disk, much better overall rendition.
This recording of Messiah, is one of my favorite recordings. I like the rhythmic and meter changes, which are not on the ‘standard’ recordings of the work. He really did do Handel justice for the 250th anniversary. The soloists are amazing especially Anne Sophie von Ottor and Jerry Hadley. The bass is a bit dark for my liking, but that’s because I prefer hearing a Bass-Baritone or Baritone perform the role. This is definitely a must-have for anyone who likes Messiah or has performed it themselves.
