Warner Classics, 2008             Pachelbel Canon, Albinoni Adagio & Other Baroque Melodies11 reviews Tomaso Albinoni, Johann Pachelbel, ... RCA, 1991 WARNING!! A great cd BUT.... I know I gave this cd 5 stars; it deserves it. Every piece is so finely textured and lush. BUT the version of the Canon on this cd, as beautiful as it is, IS NOT the original version recorded by Paillard. This cd contains a new version which has been slightly re-arranged and speeded up a bit. The version on this cd is a minute shorter than the original which can be found on the ERATO cd, ...             Pachelbel: Canon / Fasch: Concerto for trumpet23 reviews Johann Pachelbel, Jean-Francois Paillard Chamber Orchestra Erato, 1995 Pachelbel Canon This is the best version of the Pachelbel Canon as far as I'm concerned.             Pachelbel's Greatest Hit: The Ultimate Canon17 reviews Johann Pachelbel, Cleo Laine, ... RCA, 2003 Good music Item arrived when promised and in new condition. Used music for a wedding. Thank you for an easy purchase.             The Magic of the French Horn8 reviews Michel Corrette, Nicholas Charles Bochsa, ... Erato, 1994 Barboteu at his very best (with lots of vibrato) Georges Barboteu was one of the most technically and musically gifted horn players ever recorded. He can move you with his wonderful phrasing and ample vibrato. The vibrato may be too amply for some, but if you are not die-hard no-vibrato horn fans, this CD is for you. If you want to hear more of Georges Barboteu, you can hear him in French Baroque fanfares and suites: Simphonies & ...             Simply the Best Classical Anthems7 reviews Giuseppe Verdi, Carl Orff, ... Erato, 2000 Great Sampler! This is a good sampler, since it covers what you would want in a classical music CD. Looking at the tracks, it has the classic hits, such as "Ride of the Valkyries," "Toccata and Fugue," "Fanfare for the Common Man," "'Jupiter' from `The Planets,'" "Eine Klein Nachtmusik," and "Hallelujah Chorus." There are also some new pieces that I have fallen in love with, such as "The Young Person's Guide ...             Idiots Guide to Classical Music10 reviews Idiot's Guide to Classical Mus RCA, 1995 Mega-Sampler! This really does have 99 tracks! Yes, this CD really does have 99 tracks. How do they do it? Each is about a minuet long. Some are longer, some are shorter, but you get the micro-essential moments of the music. If you like burning your own CDs, then this is a great source for intra-track fillers, along the lines of They Might Be Giants' "Apollo 18" album, which has all of those short tracks on the end. The idea is to put ...             Classic Love Classic Love Elektra / Wea, 1996 Elgar's Salut d'amour performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Andrew Davis opens this two-CD set. After that, we go on a bumpy ride over performances of drastically varying quality. The "Poco Allegretto" from Brahms's Symphony No. 3 under Christoph von Dohnányi and the Cleveland Orchestra is breathtaking. Throughout the program there are a number of bite-sized editions of selections apparently deemed too long to sit through in their ...             The Magic Of the Oboe5 reviews Antonio Vivaldi, Tomaso Albinoni, ... Erato, 1993 A PERFECT "10". UNBELIEVEABLY BEAUTIFUL! THIS CD IS A PERFECT "10". Superlative performances, arrangements, and outstanding sound quality. The Zipoli work has such luscious textures and interplay of oboe, cello and orchestra that grown men are moved to tears. Yes, its that good.             Baroque Collection2 reviews Ultimate Baroque Collection Elektra / Wea, 1993 Best collection I've come across on one CD. This CD contains a very nice collection of Baroque snippets from several composers of the period. The composition variety is good and I give high marks for the interpretation on all the pieces presented.             The Magic Of The Clarinet4 reviews Carl Maria von Weber, Johannes Brahms, ... Erato, 1994 Good Starter Disc This was my first clarinet CD ever (my parents put it in my Christmas stocking when I was in high school). This disc contains some very good clarinet music, and would make a good introduction CD for someone wanting a taste of clarinet music. If you already have a few clarinet CDs, this disc may be of limited interest, mostly because it's repertoire is limited and contains pieces that ...             Trumpet Concertos5 reviews Telemann, Andre Elektra / Wea, 1996 Maurice Andre is the GREATEST! These are undoubtedly some of the greatest recordings of Telemann! Mr. Andre plays with such finesse and he has such great command over the instrument! It is impossible not to fall in love with his sound! Anybody who loves to listen to the trumpet needs this CD! WONDERFUL!             Bach's Adagios5 reviews Johann Sebastian Bach, Jean-François Paillard, ... Erato, 2000 A Dream Album Almost 2 hours of "distilled" Bach- selections of the sweetest adagios by some of the world's best interpreters of the Baroque. Contains the most melodious extracts from the world's greatest masterpieces. The solos by flutist, Jean-Pierre Rampal have a dream-like quality of tonal purity: fitting preludes to choral motets by the Ensemble Vocal de Lausanne and the Orchestre de Chambre de ...             Handel: The Organ Concertos, Vol. 22 reviews George Frederick Handel, Jean-François Paillard Chamber Orchestra, ... Boston Skyline, 1995 Paillard and Handel - A great combination! For years I lamented selling my classical LP collection partly because of the loss of the wonderful Jean-Francois Paillard/Marie-Claire Alain recordings of Handel's Op. 4 and 7, also known as the Organ Concertos. Vinyl availability here in the states of this complete set was at best limited and I assumed Erato would quickly offer these splendid performances on CD but for me, that was not the ...             The Wedding Album3 reviews Marc-Antoine Charpentier, Louis Vierne, ... Erato, 1996 Tried and True and Majestic Too To the lady from New Zealand. I understand you may not like this style of music but that does not mean you should say that people who do like it have no taste. This is NOT music for a small intimate wedding. I agree with that. However, this music is wonderful for large weddings in large churches with large organs. Just like quiet, romantic music for a small intimate wedding will bring the ...             Best of5 reviews Rampal Erato, 1993 And Rampal gave the flute life... People may say that James Galway is the best flutist around, but after hearing his music with a big disappointment, I decided to see what the other master flutist had to offer. Jean-Pierre Rampal's flute music is, without doubt, the most brilliantly expressed. It is a technical work of art that only a true master flutist can do. His performance is highly expressed through technical mastery. ...             Handel's Largos3 reviews G.F. Handel Elektra / Wea, 2001 Shows Breath & Depth of This Composer Handel certainly was prolific composer, and this rich two-volume set of Largos is exemplary proof of such in Largo form. From operas and orchestral pieces, this is full of sumputuous music from concertos to operetic pieces. Especially fond of work from Concerto Grosso, Xerxes exerpts, and organ work. Marvelous collection, relaxing and sensual.             The Best of Mozart Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Erich Leinsdorf, ... RCA, 1991             Handel: The Organ Concertos, Vol. 12 reviews George Frederick Handel, Jean-François Paillard Chamber Orchestra, ... Boston Skyline, 1995 The best This is not only the best recording of Haendel's 16 organ concertos, but I would say the benchmark, against which all the other recordings are measured. Marie Claire Alain is one of the greatest organists of the 20th century, Jean-Francois Paillard and his orchestra made their reputation in hundreds of recordings of baroque and historical music. The organ here is somehow not as powerful as the ...             Pachelbel - Canon · Albinoni - Adagio / Ensemble de Chambre Jean-Francois Paillard2 reviews Johann Pachelbel, Johann Sebastian Bach, ... Warner Music France, 1991 Our best loved CD This is an uplifting, inspiring piece that we play over and over again. Our kids (7 and 10) love it and asked to have the CD also in our new car. Now carpooling, its the one requested and all of the kids (ages 6 to 11) quiet down and listen. The Pachelbel Canon is a joy. All of the selections are terrific. I can't imagine ever tiring of it.              search for classical music adagio, adagios, albinoni, anthems, baroque, chambre, clarinet, classic, classical, collection, concerto, concertos, ensemble, experience, francois, french, greatest, handel, idiots, jean-francois, largos, melodies, mozart, organ, pachelbel, paillard, simply, trumpet, ultimate, wedding classical music:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
