Harmonia Mundi Fr., 1999
right key
I need to correct some earlier reviews which state that, due to this recorded performance being played at a different pitch to the norm (a semitone lower or thereabouts), it is somehow played at the wrong tuning. From my enthusiastic layman's knowledge of period ...

as good as anything else Manze has done!
I have about 7 Manze discs. My favorite is the Biber. But this is pretty close. I found this disc very nice and very accessible. Why would anyone need to beware? I have no idea why the people reviewing here don't love this cd. I guess one guy liked it and one ...
Corelli: Violin Sonatas, Op. 5, Nos. 1-12 - Complete
Arcangelo Corelli

Andrew Manze
, ...
Harmonia Mundi, 2003
Captivating
I usually think of Corelli as nice "background music," pleasant, but without the emotional depth of Vivaldi, Bach or Handel. However, with this disc I find myself stopping and losing myself in the beautiful tones of Manze's baroque violin. The playing is superb and ...
Telemann: Twelve Fantasias for Violin Solo; Gulliver Suite for Two Violins

Harmonia Mundi Fr., 1996
A Catalog of Riches
Telemann's 12 Fantasias for solo violin (1735) are intriguingly elusive. Their brief movements offer a whirlwind tour of European manners and styles. The player's resources are laid bare -- no overarching formal design (this isn't Bach), and few openings for virtuosic ...

Universal Int'l, 1989
The Best Recording I Have Heard
I have listened to at least 5 other recordings of Pergolesi's Stabat Mater and found the version by L'Oiseau-Lyre the best by far. I am a singer myself, although an amateur with experience in serious choirs such as the Academic Choir Tone Tomsic from Slovenia (won the ...

Astounding recording, worthy of consideration!
I picked this disc up several years ago, and I frequently return to it whenever I crave a fine example of baroque violin. The naysayers will say what they will about Manze's departure from a literal interpretation of the music, while his advocates point out that this ...

What elegance and grace is contained here
The Academy of Ancient Music has done a wonderful job with this CD of the 4 Concertos written by Vivaldi in honor of the vist of Prince Frederick Christian, Prince of Poland, to Venice. The works were spread out over several evenings so that they could be enjoyed by ...

Wonderful, wonderful music
Even though I have a lot of other Bach records, this is different, like being in the ocean. What a joy. Buy it; it's unbelievable. The organ works, violin and harpsichord material, and most concertos and orchestral works, have NOTHING wrong with them per se; if you ...

Simply astounding
It is not without a sense of awe that I write these words. I believe Mr. Handel himself, had he been alive to hear this recording, would have been thoroughly delighted and not perhaps devoid of a tear or two. The grace and elegance with which these endearing ...

Baroque Fiddling with Flair
This is simply a wonderful recording of violin music. Holloway, Ritchie and Manze are among the best Baroque players in the world and so getting to hear them all together is quite a treat. Most of the composers are fairly obscure but the music is of high quality ...

an excellent collection from the AAM with Manze
This is wonderful collection of pieces by Vivaldi, Handel, Bach, and Geminiani. Performances are taken from four recent Harmonia mundi releases by Manze and the Academy of Ancient Music. The playing and recording quality are exceptional. Highly recommended.

Simply Amazing - Disregard the Negative Comments
I doubted whether to buy this or Reinhard Goebel's version of the sonatas. Most reviewers praised this one highly, but one was giving it really bad press, which made me doubt. I haven't bought the other one, and therefore I can't really compare them (though i spent ...
