Fantastic!
In his day, George Philip Telemann was more popular than Bach. But, as a Telemann fan, I GREATLY enjoy this CD. Additionally, I especially like flutes and violins. The CD includes one of Telemann's best pieces, Suite in A minor for Flute (Suite a-moll) which is a ...

Muy buena selección
Esta es una muy buena selección de grabaciones del pasado. Lamentablemente hay piezas que no están completas (como la 9na. Sinfonía de Beethoven, dirigida por Otto Klemperer en 1964), o el Concierto para Violín y Orquesta de Brahms (Oistrakh)pero hay otras que sí, como ...

A meeting of musical geniuses.
Menuhin is the master of the violin arguably the greatest violinist of the 20th century (from what I understand). Since I don't really care for western classical music I wouldn't have been exposed to his virtuosity if it weren't for this collaboration. Menuhin he plays ...

O wondrous russian music making.
When I commented for this website the VHS tape release of the Bruno Monsaingeon film on David Oistrakh ("Artist of the people?"), I made reference to a short segment included in that film of a 1965 public performance of Brahms' Op. 102 in which Oistrakh partners with ...

Treasure!
When I first heard this set, I thought to myself: now I know how Howard Carter felt when he looked for the first time into Tutankhamen's newly-excavated tomb. Maybe you know the story: As his colleagues broke the seal on the long-undiscovered tomb's final door, Carter ...

Great Brahms playing in a gentle mood
I agree with the reviewer below who calls these Menuhin-led performances inspiring. The two Brahms Sextets have been fortunate on recordings, with great accounts going back to the Casals Festival in the early Fifties. If you own the live readings by the combined ...
