Deutsche Grammophon, 2000 Anthems And Hymns From Bryn Bryn Terfel is a powerhouse of a bass-baritone, and a most versatile performer on the opera stage. I have seen him a number of times, and the range and beauty of his performances have never disappointed: he was a lyrical, bronze voiced Wolfram in Wagner's Tannhauser, and a playful, beautifully voiced rake as Mozart's Figaro (qualities he almost topped as Don Giovanni). I am not particularly ...             The Very Best of the Irish Tenors13 reviews The Irish Tenors Music Matters, 2007 Irish Magic This is my first CD of the Irish Tenors. And what a joy! I played it as soon as it arrived. I like the blend of their voices,the passion and enthusiasm they bring to this CD.

It was new and flawless. I so enjoyed revisiting the past as we disco skated to this album at the local roller rink!! Good Times!!!!             Guitarra! A Musical Journey Through Spain23 reviews Julian Bream Kultur Video, 2000 More than just guitar! This is the first review I've ever written for Amazon, and this DVD prompted me to do it. I first rented this from netflix and have had it a few times now, usually for at least a week. After renting it for the third time, I decided to just buy a copy. This DVD is more than simply a classical guitar video. It is an incredible DVD that delves into the heart and soul of Spain.

Astralwerks, 2004 this is a record everyone should have. i'm a huge eno fan, and love his stuff. this record, however, is unbelievable! there are distinct atmospheres to each side that might be lost playing via cd. side one...wow. from the first time i heard the opening of "no one receiving," i was hooked. the harmony vocals are really different than what other artists were working with, and the large array of musicians all brought their "A" game. ...             Mozart Symphonies 38 Through 417 reviews Scottish Chamber Orchestra, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, ... Linn Records, 2008 Mozart via Scotland Forget reading the reviews - get these CDs. All the superlatives in the language can't express the exquisite music that awaits you when you play these recordings. Superb musicians led by an astute conductor whose heart is in it, that is a given. No cerebral Mozart here. The size of the orchestra is just right to clearly display the color and instrumental lines to perfection. If one could hear ...             Mozart's Magic Fantasy: A Journey Through 'The Magic Flute'22 reviews Various Artists, Walter Babiak, ... Children's Group, 1995 Great intro to opera! I'm a general music teacher for grades K-2. I was a vocal major in college, and I am an opera singer. I really wanted to do an introduction to opera with my 2nd graders, and I think this CD is a great tool to do just that. The Magic Flute is one of my favorite operas, and it's a perfect story for kids. The child narrator really makes the opera more approachable for children, and the performers ...             The Ultimate Guitar Collection7 reviews Isaac Albeniz, Italian Anonymous, ... Sony, 2005 The Best Compilation of the Man on 2 Discs! Great Sound Quality Too! The title very aptly describes this great classical guitar album showcasing some of the best ever works of John Williams on 2 discs. The track selections are great as they span the centuries from the Baroque greats of Bach and Vivaldi to the modern day composers such as Stanley Myers and York. John even flirts with Blues and Jazz-style pieces and they actually sound very good. In addition, ...             György Ligeti Edition 2: A Cappella Choral Works - London Sinfonietta Voices9 reviews Gyorgy Ligeti, Terry Edwards Sony, 1997 a handful of great Ligeti works. As a compilation, musically speaking, Edition 2 is probably my least favorite of the Sony Ligeti Edition collection. Many of the pieces come from traditional Hungarian sources, conceived while Ligeti was still in his early years. They are pretty, but also pretty straightforward and conventional, and other than their simple pleasantness and occasionally yummy dissonances, they aren't really ...             The String Quartet Tribute to Metallica3 reviews Cliff / Mustaine, Dave / Hetfield, James / Ulrich Burton, James / Ulrich, Lars / Hammett, Kirk Hetfield, ... Vitamin Records, 2004 Great idea and it works! It's fun to hear Metallica songs performed with instrumentation not usually associated with heavy metal music. If I'd heard this first, I'd definitely be interested in hearing the originals. However, now I'm investigating other String Quartet Tribute CDs. I'd love to hear them play Rob Zombie's music.             Kiri Sings Kern: Dame Kiri TeKanawa13 reviews Dame Kiri TeKanawa, Jerome Kern, ... Angel Records, 1993 Kiri delivers Kern Before the advent of lapel microphones singers on the musical stage had to learn to project the voice just like opera singers still do. There was no fudging, no "style," and no fakery. That's the kind of singing that Kern wrote his music for. His best ballads, full of beauty, subtlety and delicious harmonies work best with that approach. After listening to several new compilations of Kerns ...             Songs Of Old Russia2 reviews Anatoly Grindenko, Anonymous, ... Opus 111, 1996 Drop dead gorgeous Every now and then you get a CD come along where some really outstanding artist allows themself to just let their hair down for a moment.

These are ...             My Life Belongs To You17 reviews Ronan Tynan Sony, 2002 greatest living tenor Ronan Tynan is an amazing vocalist, and an amazing man. I'd never heard of him until, in the 2001 World Series, he sang "God Bless America," at Yankee Stadium. From then on, my husband was hooked. He bought this album as soon as he heard of it, and his culture level, musically speaking, is usually -----. But this is the exception that proves every rule.

EMI Classics, 1994 A great program from the world's best romantic organ The enormous Aeolian-Skinner organ in New York's Riveside Church was built over two decades under the direction of Virgil Fox who plays on this recording. Although it's not the largest organ in the world, or even in New York, it is the definitive American Symphonic Organ. There are dozens of different divisions surrounding the church sanctuary (not just one big box at one end of the church) and ...             Annie Laurie ~ Folksongs of the British Isles / Barrueco · The King's Singers9 reviews English Traditional, Scottish Traditional, ... EMI Classics, 1993 The King's Singers in their element The King's Singers got started a few decades ago doing exclusively classical material, and most of that was pre-1700. Now, many years on, (and after several changes in the group's membership) they have long since branched out into pop and other genres. This CD (along with another similar one, "Watching the White Wheat") really show off their UK roots, with English, Scottish, and Irish folksongs. ...             Build your baby's brain through the power of Mozart: Brain 23 reviews Christian M. Immler, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, ... Sony, 1999 Beautiful Collection of Classical Music This is a fantastic CD of beautiful music. It is uplifting and soothing at the same time. I have several good classic music compilations CDs, but this is my favorite and the one that gets played daily! When the littlest one is napping, it goes on. When I'm cooking, it goes on. When we have the TV off and the kids are playing games or making puzzles, it is on!

Chandos, 1997 One of the most extraordinary works ever written Music of the Spheres, by the eccentric Danish composer Rued Langgaard, really is the work that has everything. Written between 1916 and 1918, it uses a multitude of techniques that would not be rediscovered until after the wars. Multifarious tone clusters, floating micropolyphony, a piano played directly on the strings, an entire offstage orchestra, blurred choral singing, prefigurations of ...              search for classical music barrueco, belongs, british, cappella, classics, collection, edition, fantasy, folksongs, glorious, guitarra, household, journey, langgaard, ligeti, london, metallica, musical, pictures, quartet, science, sinfonietta, singers, spheres, symphonies, tekanawa, through, tribute, ultimate, welcome classical music:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
