Cinema Paradiso
Monica Mancini

Concord Records, 2002

"The Summer Smiles, The Summer Knows"
"When Monica Mancini set out to record this retrospective of songs from films, she clearly had her passions in order. Monica comes by her affinity for the medium honestly, having grown up in a house permeated with some of the best film music in history, from the pen of ...

Silk Road Journeys: When Strangers Meet
Yo-Yo Ma, Silk Road Ensemble

Sony, 2002

A thoroughly enjoyable trip through Central Asia and a few other places.
I have just added this to my musical library and am enjoying it. From the first beat of the first note of Khongozurl's long song you are transported to central Asia - the land of horses and gers. Of all the pieces I was most interested in listening to the second ...
  
  











  



  
Classical Hits
Edgar Meyer, Yo-Yo Ma, ...

Sony, 2001

Almost Perfect!!!!
This album contains many of contemporary classic music's finest songs sung by many of the finest singers in the world. Bocelli, Brightman, Fleming, Watson, just to name a few. The problem here is with the opener, where the song is sung by the execrable Charlotte ...
  
  











  



  
The Essential Yo-Yo Ma
Edgar Meyer, Hector Console, ...

Sony, 2005

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
  
  











  



  
Hero
Tan Dun

Sony, 2004

A Heroic Performance!!
First of all, you'll want to watch the movie before purchasing this, which is a good thing because the movie is also excellent! A good soundtrack mesmerizes the audience, filling them with the emotion of the scene before them. This soundtrack performs admirably, ...
  
  











  



  
Lang Lang Live at Carnegie Hall
Frederic Chopin, Franz Joseph Haydn, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2004

Pianistic Glory at its best!!!!
Wow!! I have read several of the 'negative' reviews here and can only conclude (after viewing the DVD four times and counting) that what may be going on with these folks is something they themselves simply don't understand (about themselves!). They cannot or will not ...
  
  











  



  
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000 Film)
Tan Dun, Yo-Yo Ma, ...

Sony, 2000

A Beautiful Portrait of Eastern Legend
What a great score! Tan Dun has proven he can score with the best of them with this score. Yo-Yo Ma is at the top of his game, ripping out beautiful cello solos nearly every track. One of the scores' greatest triumphs is it's constant atmospheric bliss. "Through the ...
  
  











  



  
Classic Yo-Yo
Johannes Brahms, Antonin Dvorak, ...

Sony, 2001

Awesome
While most people on this site see the "classic" in the title of the album as referring to classical music only, they are mistaken. Classic Yo-Yo refers to his style, not the genre into which his music choices fall. The list of tracks alone should have been a big ...
  
  











  



  
Lang Lang Live at Carnegie Hall [Deluxe Edition] [CD & DVD]
Frederic Chopin, Franz Joseph Haydn, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2008

For sensational Chinese superstar pianist Lang Lang, 2008 is proving to be a banner year! The incredible national exposure he gained with his appearance on the Grammy® Awards telecast in February is certain to increase exponentially in August when he performs in the opening ceremony and makes special appearances throughout the 2008 Olympics in ...
  
  











  



  
Water Passion After St Matthew
Tan Dun, O'Connor, ...

Sony, 2002

St. Matthew Passion as World Ritual
The concept for this contribution to the Passion 2000 project smacked so much of "political correctness" and world music crossover gimmickry that I almost passed it by. Tan Dun is a composer that intrigues me, but the idea of a Buddhist making understandable this most ...
  
  











  



  
Silk Road Journeys: When Strangers Meet
Edgar Meyer, Edward Arron, ...

Sony, 2002

An Adventure in Music
Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Project is a noble and ambitious attempt to bring together "traditional" musicians of Asia with Western musicians. For the most part, they play new music that combines Western instruments with instruments (and tonalities) of China, India, ...
  
  











  



  
Marco Polo
Stephen Bryant, Dun Tan, ...

Sony, 1997

The libretto's fine and music's powerful.
It's silly to suggest that other critics would not attack Marco Polo just because the libretto was written by Paul Griffiths. Ever see Siskel and Ebert attack each other's views? In fact, Griffith's libretto may not be a great work of literature, but great works of ...
  
  











  



  
Dim Sum
Vivian Fung, Gan-Ru Ge, ...

Telarc, 2008

Following their solo label debut last year (Tchaikovsky's Souvenir de Florence and Quartet Nos. 1-3, CD-80685), the Ying Quartet serve up a new concept of short works by Chinese-American composers for its second CD on Telarc. This new recording - entitled "Dim Sum," after the famous Chinese small-plate brunch - serves a selection of string quartet ...
  
  











  



  
The Banquet
Tan Dun

Dg Imports, 2006

Tan Dun, How can you not love him?
Simply put, the soundtrack will take your breath away. The Banquet is the best interpretation of Shakespeare's Hamlet so far. And Tan Dun's music has played a major role in helping the motion picture to jump to an awesome level of artistic achievement. In this world ...
