D. Scarlatti: 18 Sonatas
Domenico Scarlatti, Maria Tipo

EMI Classics, 2003

Superb Scarlatti
Well, the earlier review has covered almost everything. I would only add Zacharias's 49 Scarlatti Sonatas (EMI) to the list mentioned, and nonetheless I prefer Tipo in the whole list. And other than elegance and gracefulness, her playing also possesses a remarkable ...
  
  











  



  
Art of Segovia
Andres Segovia

Deutsche Grammophon, 2002

Great Sound Quality; Great Value
The 24-bit remastering of these analog recordings from the 1950s and 60s is outstanding. Both disks are chock-full at almost 80 minutes each, and there are a good many songs you don't hear every day. Forty of the 41 tracks are solos, while a short Rodrigo orchestral ...
  
  











  



  
The Most Relaxing Harp Album in the World... Ever!
Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Angel Records, 2005

Harp Music
Animal behaviorists have done some studies showing harp music is good at calming animals, especially cats. My cat was very skittish and unhappy as a result of very loud construction work next door and all other efforts to calm her down had not been totally successful. ...
  
  











  



  
Essential Guitar: 33 Guitar Masterpieces
Essential Guitar: 34 Gtr Masterpieces

Decca, 2002

Two-and-a-half hours of bliss
This may be the best money I've ever spent. I got 2-1/2 hours of bliss for less than what I'd usually pay for one CD -- and you know how it is with music. You buy an album because of a song or two that you love, and you find that you like maybe half the songs on it. ...
  
  











  



  
The Ultimate Guitar Collection
Isaac Albeniz, Anonymous, ...

Sony, 2005

The Best Compilation of the Man on 2 Discs! Great Sound Quality Too!
The title very aptly describes this great classical guitar album showcasing some of the best ever works of John Williams on 2 discs. The track selections are great as they span the centuries from the Baroque greats of Bach and Vivaldi to the modern day composers such ...
  
  











  



  
300 Years of Guitar Masterpieces
Isaac Albeniz, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

Vox (Classical), 1992

The "cool school" of guitar playing
This three CD collection is a reissue of Cuban born virtuoso Manuel Barrueco's early Vox LPs, recorded in the late 1970s to early 1980s. Included in this set is his stunning performance of selections by Spanish composers Isaac Albéniz and Enrique Granados. This 1978 ...
  
  











  



  
Cecilia Bartoli - If You Love Me (Se tu m'ami ), 18th-Century Italian Songs
Alessandro Scarlatti, Antonio Cesti, ...

Decca, 1992

Cecilia Bartoli at her best.
A great singer is one who dedicates singing to the text itself instead to himself/herself. This is achieved 100% by Ms. Bartoli in this earlier album of hers. The recordings here cannot be termed otherwise than 'immaculate'. The very opening song 'Gia sole dal gange' ...
  
  











  



  
Classic Williams: Romance of the Guitar
Isaac Albeniz, Anonymous, ...

Sony, 2000

The Aranjuez Adagio is Perfection
The second movement adagio of the Aranjuez concert is one of my favourite pieces, a very difficult one to get right. I've listened to well over a dozen variations, the one on this CD, track 19, is an absolute gem. Just by itself is reason enough to own this CD. The ...
  
  











  



  
Kathleen Battle ˇ Wynton Marsalis ~ Baroque Duet / Anthony Newman ˇ Orch St. Luke's ˇ Nelson
George Frideric Handel, Alessandro Scarlatti, ...

Sony, 1992

Brilliant!
Spectacular display of brilliance and harmony. Truly, two masters of their respective disciplines melding together to display flawless virtuosity. Wynton Marsalis not only tames the piccolo beast, but somehow expertly mimics the human voice. And not just any voice, but ...

Dinu Lipatti (1917- 1950 ) was a Romanian classical pianist and composer whose career was tragically cut short by his death from Hodgkin's disease at age 33.

Christopher Parkening plays Bach
Johann Sebastian Bach, Francois Couperin, ...

EMI Classics, 1990

Pinnacle
I can't over-exaggerate the impact this album had on me when my Dad played it for me when I was about 6. It encouraged me to become a guitarist, and hearing it was my first truly profound musical experience that I can remember. I love all kinds of music, but ...
  
  











  



  
Perpetual Motion
Bela Fleck, Edgar Meyer, ...

Sony, 2001

Soul Food
This is exquisite! The best of human experience encoded on a simple CD disk.
  
  











  



  
Leon Fleisher: Two Hands
Johann Sebastian Bach, Frederic Chopin, ...

Artemis Classics, 2004

F leisher's triumphant return.
It is thrilling and soul-satisfying to hear Leon Fleisher's superb and sensitive playing of Bach, Scarlatti, Chopin, Debussy and Schubert after dystonia had prevented two-handed performances for more than 35 years. The Fleisher tapes of Beethoven's piano concertos ...
  
  











  



  
Mikhail Pletnev ~ Domenico Scarlatti - Keyboard Sonatas
Mikhail Pletnev

EMI Classics, 2001

Poor Domenico...
... overshadowed in his youth by his father, always known as "the Great Scarlatti," and now overshadowed once again by the rediscovery of daddy Alessandro's spectacular oratorios and altar-operas. I suspect that Domenico would gnash his teeth rather than exulting in ...
  
  











  



  
Andres Segovia: In Portrait
Christopher Nupen, Rameau Albeniz

BBC / Opus Arte, 2005

The Master of Classical Guitar
I just love this disc. The production is wonderful and of course Andres Segovia's guitar playing is phenomenal. His comments on his music and life give you a good understanding of where he's coming from. The DVD offers you the choice to play just the musical ...
