Comparing the two Bernstein Mahler cycles
Most buyers aren't in the market for a complete Mahler cycle by a single conductor, but if they were, the two from Bernstein contain many great performances. I've reviewed the contents of this Sixties cycle on Sony and the later one from the Eighties (contianing many ...

Chasing pavement
A couple of months ago, a co-worker of mine lent me her copy of Adele's 19 since I am an admirer of both Duffy and Amy Winehouse. The comparison between Adele and the aforementioned artists is predictable. While there are subtle elements of Amy Winehouse in Adele's ...

good selections but questionable 4th disc
I have not bought this set, but I have heard all the music on it from other sources. The symphonies are good, but I was not sure what was on every disc since there is no listing on Amazon. I went to the Naxos website to see the track listings for the 4 cd's, and the ...

Great Tracks -- Great Value -- Great Book, Who Can Complain?
Naxos is a fabulous label -- you will not get samples of the best classical music through the ages at no better price. These tracks are as good as any of the over-priced major orchestras and in some cases better. This is a great starter set for a beginner or anyone ...

Mesmerized and moved mom to tears
This CD is awesome, the music great, the story captivating. But it's Mozart, you already know about the music. Other reviewers have already discussed the story and I agree with their assessments that it's very good. The reason for this review is to say that my very ...

Fabulous for any Broadway-lover
Packs into 5 CD's a sampling of Broadway tunes from the 20's thru (almost) today, mostly from original cast recordings. Includes not just well-known hits, but also some lesser-known gems. Sound quality is first rate, booklet is informative too. Have given this as a ...

a good place to begin if you've never heard any Glass
My first encounter with the Glass Violin Concerto was in the form of a dance piece devised by the fringe choreographer Mavin Khoo.The Glass worked brilliantly within this context but i doubted it would stand on it's own without the marriage with movement. I was proven ...

Adele
Xl Recordings Int'l, 2008
beautiful....
Adele is the latest (and perhaps one of the greatest) voices from the contemporary British blue-eyed soul movement. At age nineteen, this young woman has a voice filled with a maturity rarely heard in people twice her age. "Chasing Pavements" is sultry, expressive ...

passion in this Passion
The true test of this recording is comparing the last chorus with other versions by Klemperer, Gardiner, Ritcher, Koopman, et al. Why? Because Bach was wrenching all the drama he could from that last expression of the sorrow of life of Jesus. "Wir setzen uns mit ...

Which Mahler 2nd from Bernstein--early or late?
Bernstein so closely identified himself with the Mahelr Second that he made three recordings. For a long time two have stood out: the first, from 1963, with the New York Phil. (Sony) and the last, from 1988, from a live concert, also in New York (DG). Sony owns another ...

I bought this CD for background music while driving in the car and soon found myself taking it into the office to continue listening for relaxation and enjoyment on my PC headphones. One day I got a new PC delivered and was so caught up in the new computer, that I ...
