Product Description

presents the Bible in more than 90 hours of compelling, dramatic audio theater
format.This world-class audio production immerses listeners in the
dramatic reality of the Scriptures as never before with an original music score
by composer Stefano Mainetti (Abba Pater), feature film quality sound
effects, and compelling narration by Michael York and the work of over 600
actors.
Each beloved book of the Bible comes to life with outstanding performances by
Jim Caviezel as Jesus, Richard Dreyfuss as Moses, Gary Sinise as David, Jason
Alexander as Joseph, Marisa Tomei as Mary Magdalene, Stacy Keach as Paul, Louis
Gossett, Jr. as John, Jon Voight as Abraham, Marcia Gay Harden as Esther, Joan
Allen as Deborah, Max von Sydow as Noah, and Malcolm McDowell as Solomon.
The 79-CD set includes a carrying case tin and an interactive Bonus Features
DVD that includes actor interviews, worship resources, and a fascinating look at
how dramatic audio theater is produced.
The elements of voice, sound, and music are densely woven together in this
complete New King James Version of the Bible. Producer Carl Amari and director
JoBe Cerny use many audio drama techniques (more than the average audiobook or
even contemporary audio drama) to create the people and places found in the
Bible. This production style is highly effective in retelling these
stories--thanks to the many talented actors who populate the cast--but it can
also be overused. The score is so dense and constant that it leads the
listeners' emotions, instead of letting them come to their own understanding.
The one audio storytelling element that's missing is silence, which is often
where we find insight. Given the deeply personal messages often found in the
Bible, a little more sonic room would give listeners the opportunity to find
their own understanding of these words. S.Z. © AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
