botti blows like an angel
If you enjoy the horn played by a musician's musican, then you will enjoy this CD. Not only is Botti the best trumpet player since Miles, his arrangements are well crafted, no, exquisite, and his well chosen guests rise to the challenge. I just saw him at the Kennedy Center live and he did not let us down there either. Charming, attractive, articulate and vivacious. He's a performer par ...

No Mere Stylistic Mash-up
Last Sunday the Honolulu Orchestra presented their only new-music offering of the season: a live version of the work before you, Edgar Meyer's The Melody of Rhythm. This triple concerto for banjo, bass, and tabla was first recorded by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, and I absolutely can't recommend it highly enough. Performers Béla Fleck, Edgar Meyer, and Zakir Hussain are simply amazing ...

Ultimate Classical Christmas Record of All Time
Sony, 2002
Breathtakingly beautiful!
Over and over we played "Die Menge der Engel" - - it is stunningly beautiful! The loftiness of the voices, wonderful. We loved the boys/children's choruses on many of the other pieces on the album. Duets by Placido Domingo and Luciano Pavorati - - magnifico! It is a pleasant compilation of traditional favorites and awesome classical pieces that are worth listening to again and again.

Bach
Surely you don't need me to review the guy. You know who he is, you've heard his music, and I hope you own some. So let me turn the podium over to a cat named Picasso, and you can read into that whatever you wish. She's in a chair, near the CD player. She has entered the room specifically for the music. Her eyes are squinted, almost but not quite shut, little face concentrating on just how ...

Rhapsody in blue
I first heard Leonard Bernstein's version of Rahpsody in Blue in the early 1960s, on a 7" vinyl record. It has remained my favourite ever since. This digital issue on a CD is excellent. Nothing has been lost in the transition from analogue to digital recording, and it is every bit as enjoyable now as it was when I first heard it forty-five years ago.
Baby Einstein: Baby Mozart

Carleigh's CD
I bought this cd for my 9 month old baby to play in the car until we can get a dvd player. She loves her Baby Einstein dvd's so I was hoping that this would help soothe her car ride. She would get very agitated about having to be restrained while in the car. But when we got the cd and played it for her while we were in the car it was like magic. She did keep looking for her movie but overall ...

I fell in love with Recuerdos de la Alhambra from another CD I own and wanted more music along the same lines. This 2 disc set more than met my expectations.

Nice cd
I ordered this CD for my brother who is now taking piano lessons. The compositions aren't full length but they are good enough for a newcomer to get a feel for some Beethoven. I would recommend this CD to others.

YO YO MA'S SIMPLY BAROQUE IS SIMPLY... WONDERFUL !
The Baroque Period in Europe originated in the early 17th century and reached it's peak in the early 18th century. The English word "baroque" is translated from the Italian "barocco", meaning "bizarre". "Passionate" is probably more like it. Johann Sebastian Bach is the most celebrated of the Baroque composers, although George Frederick Handel and Antonio Vivaldi are also famous for their Baroque ...

I just cant say enough about this collection. It used to be that you had to spend a fortune to get Mozart's best hits; a few on each album. Now, you can buy them all at once and dirt cheap! very nice

The music on this album is very well done. Amazon's description was sketchy and after receiving the album I realized I already owned it. Fortunately I have friends that would appreciate it so it will make a wonderful gift.

An Honest Review
I loved this CD!!! I used all but 5 songs from it for the prelude music for my December 23rd wedding! The quality of musicians and recording is incredible! I would without hesitation encourage all who are looking for an instrumental Christmas CD - to purchase THIS ONE - you will not be disappointed!

These reviews are NOT for the recording by the Salzburg Chamber Orchestra
For some reason, the page for the MP3 album of the recording of the Four Seasons by the Salzburg Chamber Orchestra links you to these reviews which are for the Boston Symphony recording. Get the Boston recording, it is sublime.
