Christiansen was a giant in a cappella choral music. Beginning in 1911 he built the Minneapolis based St. Olaf Choir to world-class stature, composed or arranged more than 600 songs, and influenced countless other conductors through his speaking and guest conducting. This concert in November 1996 celebrated his contributions, bringing together five fabulous college choirs: The Augsburg Choir, The Concordia Choir, The Gustavus Choir, The Luther College Nordic Choir and The St. Olaf Choir. On this two-CD collection are numerous a cappella choral masterpieces from Rachmaninoff, Poulenc, Swider ("Cantate Domino"), Górecki ("Totus Totus") and many, many more. Each choir sings a Christiansen work, but undoubtedly the emotional high point is the finale with all five choirs amassing to perform "Psalm 50 (Movements II and II)," "O Bread of Life from Heaven" a
