They are so intense and involved in the music, a true inspiration to us all! Outstanding work by Daniel Barenboim to be able to conduct and play - he is truly one of the greatest pianists of our time!             Tom and Jerry - Spotlight Collection67 reviews Tex Avery, Joseph Barbera Warner Home Video, 2004 Kids love it! The kids love all the Tom $ Jerry DVD's. This one was no exception. They nearly have their collection complete! Thanks Amazon!             Tom and Jerry: Spotlight Collection, Vol. 1-38 reviews William Hanna, Lillian Randolph Warner Home Video, 2007 Masterpiece. (100 out of 100) Amazing is all I can say. A true masterpiece of animation and art. The grandfather of all modern animation. It is beyond cool to have all the episodes available in one package (as a set of 6 dvd's). It's all here, uncut and unedited. Loved by generations of children and now my children too. On two of the dvd's (to introduce the character "Mammy Two Shoes") there is a dvd intro by Whoopi ...             Daniel Barenboim/Staatskapelle Berlin: Beethoven - Piano Concertos 1-5 [Blu-ray]1 review, ... Euroarts, 2009 Daniel Barenboim Shines as Conductor and Soloist If Daniel Barenboim is not the world's greatest living classical musician he is certainly the most versatile. In a career spanning more than 50 years, his name is attached to many of the celebrated recordings of opera, symphony, small ensemble and piano solo. With the later half of his career marked by distinction at the podium, one may forget that he is still an accomplished concert pianist. ...             Tchaikovsky - Piano Concertos Nos. 1&3 - Acoustic Reality Experience [7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio Disc] [Blu-ray]27 reviews n/a Surround Records, 2008 Exellent! Add me to the people raving about this new 7.1 music titles. I have been searching for quite some time to find music on Blu-ray and I finally found it. The quality of the recordings is very high, as one would expect with DTS-HD Master Audio. I would buy this disc set first, listen to it for about three months, and then and only then move on to the other stuff. I must say that listening to this ...             Amadeus (Blu-ray Book)598 reviews F. Murray Abraham, Tom Hulce Warner Home Video, 2009 Amadeus who? This movie is superbly produced and acted. One is transported back to those days of Patrons of the Arts and fashionable Salons ruled over by the matriarchs of local society. Mozart doesn't come out of history with too much credit and for his sake, it might have been better had this film - and history generally - had skipped over his private life and character. His music, on the other hand, ...             Handel: Partenope7 reviews Inger Dam Jensen, Andreas Scholl Decca, 2009 What fun! What a thoroughly enjoyable experience! This turns out to be one of Handel's most accessible scores with some of his most endearing arias as well as a few duets and concerted pieces. The fragile plot enfolds like a Shakespearean comedy with mistaken and supressed identities , cross dressing, twists of plot, pangs and pains of love and all turns out for the best in the end. The production itself ...             Tom and Jerry: Spotlight Collection, Vol. 346 reviews Warner Home Video, 2007 Tom and Jerry dvd This is a great dvd collection. We ordered it after my 2 year old granddaughter saw an old cartoon on tv of Tom & Jerry and loved them. She laughs out oud and really likes it. We watch it several times each day!!!             Schumann: Symphony No. 4 - Piano Concerto - featuring Martha Argerich and Riccardo Chailly [Blu-ray]1 review Schumann, Tchaikovsky EUROARTS, 2010 Argerich and Schumann in All Their Glory First, the contents, in order as they appear of this all-Schumann DVD, not yet listed by Amazon: Adagio & Allegro brillante (arr.

Everyone responds to Bernstein's warm and passionate manner, and anyone's appreciation for classical music will be enhanced by his cogent and fun explorations into the myriad aspects of classical music. Anyone new to classical music who watches these programs will find themselves with new ways to derive great pleasure in life. ...             Beethoven: The Piano Concertos [DVD Video]14 reviews Deutsche Grammophon, 2007 A wonderful memorial Concertos 3, 4 and 5 were recorded in Vienna in 1989, the year before Leonard Bernstein's death. Krystian Zimerman in December 1991 completed the cycle, as a memorial to the late conductor. The pianist conducts the Wiener Philharmoniker from the keyboard in concertos 1 and 2. Zimerman is an outstanding Beethoven interpreter: technically perfect, forceful, but always sensitive and aware of the ...             Artur Rubinstein in Concert4 reviews Deutsche Grammophon, 2008 Rubinstein in the indian summer of his career Following their release of Artur Rubinstein's Grieg, Chopin and Saint-Saëns concertos, Deutsche Grammophon issues another fascinating programme about the great pianist, recorded two years earlier, in August 1973, at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. Rubinstein can be heard and seen in Beethoven's 3rd and Brahms's 1st, both accompanied by the Concertgebouw Orchestra under Bernard Haitink. ...             Bach Performance on the Piano [DVD Video]7 reviews Hyperion UK, 2008 Terrific insights, nothing condescending Curiously enough, I was moved to purchase this video by one of the less-than-stellar reviews on this page; I already knew Angela Hewitt to be a fine artist, and though I strongly doubted that there would be any basis for claims like "It's all about Angela" and so forth, this disparaging review added to the interest I already had about this DVD set. It is my pleasure to opine that such ...             Concerto Suite for Electric Guitar and Orchestra46 reviews Yngwie Malmsteen Eagle Rock Ent, 2005 Malmsteen is brilliant Malmsteen shows his brilliance and creativity with a classical flavor. This is stunning and outstanding. I LOVE it.....             Grieg, Chopin & Saint Saens Piano Concertos / Previn, Rubinstein, London Symphony Orchestra12 reviews Artur Rubinstein, London Symphony Orchestra Deutsche Grammophon, 2006 Other reviews have it right There's not much to add to what others have said about this DVD -- it's superb.             Herbert Von Karajan - New Year's Concert 1988 - Prokofiev Symphony No. 1 & Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto No. 1 / ...12 reviews The Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Herbert von Karajan Sony, 1999 Great performances! Von Karajan obviously enjoys conducting the Prokoviev, and it shows in the vivacity of the performance. Sometimes the pp passages are ppp, but all else is fine. The Tchaikovsky is an unusual performance, with much slower tempos and more deliberation during transitions (even pauses) than are generally found in this work. Probably played five minutes longer than Horowitz or Gilels would have ...             Rachmaninov: Piano Concertos Nos. 2&3 - Acoustic Reality Experience [7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio Disc] [Blu-ray]26 reviews n/a Surround Records, 2008 Play back depends upon BR player There have been some other reports about this particular BR disc not playing. The bottom line here is whether or not it will play. This particular disc would not play on a Panasonic BD60, yet plays on a Panasonic BD30 (a previous generation BR player). Panasonic seems to actively update their firmware - so they may do so for this disc. I have described my problem to Panasonic, so hopefully ...             John Williams - The Seville Concert / John Williams, Paco Pena, Andres Segovia10 reviews Kultur Video, 2007 Awsome!!! Great disc, just got it and watched it twice !! great selection of pieces, and the bonus documentary is great too. The footage with Smallman is priceless to have. A MUST HAVE for any fan of the classical guitar. Williams as always makes it look easy.             Divertimenti [Hybrid SACD] [Includes Blu-Ray Disc]7 reviews 2-L, 2008 Stunning Dynamic range sound through my Paradigms This recording is like no other, however, you have to be able to reproduce the sound to appreciate it. I can hear a definite difference with this compared to other CD's over my PS3, Pioneer elite receiver and Paradigm Speakers. Love it. Cons: Music selection Pros: Sound and recording quality             Berliner Philharmoniker/Vadim Repin/Simon Rattle: Beethoven/Bruch/Stravinsky1 review Simon Rattle, Vadim Repin Euroarts, 2009 2008 Europakonzert from Moscow Berliner Philharmoniker/Vadim Repin/Simon Rattle: Beethoven/Bruch/StravinskyThree outstanding works are performed in Moscow's Tchaikovsky Conservatory before an enthusiastic audience by the Berlin Philharmonic and Russian violinist Vadim Repin. Repin's performance of Bruch's violin concerto No. 1 alone was worth the price of the DVD, beautifully mastered in 1080HD.
