The Essential Yo-Yo Ma

Edgar Meyer, Hector Console, ...

pure genius
No instrument asks more from the soul of an artist as the cello does. Yo Yo Ma shows to be master of the instrument and his interpretations en technique are pure genius. Everyone should have this album in his (or hers of course) basic classical collection

Decca recordings in France
This collection consists of many of the Decca recordings done in France in 1935 thru 1938. For some reason, the Decca recordings in general are not being reissued. Most of the pre-war recordings on the 100 or so CDs available are from the French Gramaphone recordings. ...

always a winning pair
You simply can't go wrong with a combination of two of the most talented violinists of our time. This cd is a wonderful showcase for them both and the choice of music is the greatest classics. It's a fun, winner of a cd.

Doubles Jeux

Tatjana Vassiljeva, Bela Bartok, ...

Naive, 2007

Sublime sounds
I suddenly have a new favorite violinist, and his name is Laurent Korcia. I state this having just discovered Doubles Jeux, his most recent recording. Not only does this guy have one of the most personal sounds of any violinist I can recall, he's able to cross musical ...

Anything Goes, With Yo Yo Ma

Stephane Grappelli with Yo-Yo Ma

Sony, 1989

Cole Porter's ghost winks at this pair...
What can I say? I put this CD in tonight, and within 5 seconds of the title track, "Anything Goes," starting, I felt like if I closed my eyes, I'd see visions of 'Jeeves and Wooster' (humorous PBS series starring Peter Fry and Hugh Laurie), which means it was very near ...

Most beautiful music
This is happy music. Just plain happy, instrumental music. Highly recommend to everyone.

Bach to the Beatles

Allen Walley, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

White Line, 1993

Papa Bach boogies! Oh, yeah!
You are welcome to the Beatles cuts on this CD. The Bach tracks are what make it worth the price. Don't get me wrong. I love the Beatles, but honestly, the works of Lennon and McCartney do not easily adapt to the jazz trio style. It's more like being pummeled into ...
