Artemis Records, 2006 Excellent, Much Underrated Recording of "The Nutcracker" As the last of Tchaikovsky's ballets, "The Nutcracker" features some of the most interesting harmonic and rhythmic textures of the Romantic era. It's a popular subject for recording. At present, we have versions by Valery Gergiev, Charles Mackerras, Antal Dorati, Eugene Ormandy, Andre Previn, Richard Bonynge, and many others. All are fine in their own right, but the best recordings of the ballet ...             Music from a Farther Room69 reviews Lucia Micarelli, Eric Holden, ... Reprise Records, 2004 Loosh I dearly love this album. There were places that nearly brought tears to my eyes. Lucia said in an interview, "I play violin!" and that is a complete understatement.

Sony, 2004 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.

Deutsche Grammophon, 2005 A Must Have For All Trumpet Players I purchased this recording as a reference recording for my trumpet studio. As I started to listen to it, I realized that it contains some of the absolute greatest classical trumpet recordings there are. Rafael Mendez is mind-blowing, Bud Herseth's rendition of the Haydn Concerto is stunningly flawless and Abblasen is a great way to open this 2-CD set. It contains a sample of almost all the ...             Choral Masterpieces9 reviews Wayne Baughman, Johann Sebastian Bach, ... Telarc, 1990 Uncle Abe rattles the house with this thing I came home from work one day when my uncle was visiting my wife and myself. He was recently retired from the ministry. He had heard a lot of choral music in his life. My aunt said he had the stereo ( power end of my stereo at the time was an Adcomm 555 amp. conservatively rated at 200 watts RMS per channel) up so loud it was rattling the whole house. I too have come to love this music. I ...             Pachelbel Canon and Other Baroque Hits9 reviews Tomaso Albinoni, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2009 Essential Argerich recordings, despite the duplications Imitating the format of DG's earlier collection of Argerich's complete solo albums, here in crhonological order from 1967 to 2004 we get her concerto recordings. All are self-recommending to her legion of fans and highly recommended by critics, which poses a problem for many collectors. I already own all but a handful, so even DG's bargain price isn't all that tempting. The duplications consist ...             Ravel: Boléro14 reviews Maurice Ravel, Charles Dutoit, ... Decca, 1999 Simply wonderful! If you are a music buff like myself ( and I do like all kinds of music ), than what's not to like about The Boléro, by Ravel? And I don't buy into that hog-wash of a story that Ravel wrote this piece in the beginning of dementia...gimmie a break and give that man credit where credit is due.....The Boléro is a master piece!

When I was a young child it was still the practice of the Catholic Church to chant the entire Mass for special holy days and other occasions. I never enjoyed attending Mass "except" these.

Compendia, 1994 This box selection is enjoyable Cheers to those with drive to attain "real" music student status. However, I just want to listen to music passages I have found enjoyable over the years. There is no pretense of this selection being a student workbook of classical music for the serious scholar - it is just an enjoyable alternative to that shared by those offensively loud vehicles near me at the stoplight.             Faure Requiem Op.48 / Durufle Requiem Op.926 reviews Robert Shaw, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra & Chorus Telarc, 1990 Fast and in a very good condition Fast and in a very good condition              search for classical music american, baroque, broadway, classical, classics, collection, complete, concerto, debussy, durufle, farther, favorites, georges, greatest, gregorian, masterpieces, musical, nicolai, nutcracker, orchestra, pachelbel, performs, quatuor, recordings, relaxing, requiem, symphony, tchaikovsky, trumpet, universe classical music:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
