Rachmaninoff for a Rainy Day2 reviews
Nina Kotova, Sergey Rachmaninov, ...

Philips, 2001

Rainy day, boy what an appropriate title

+ It's a lovely title

I don't know what it is about the second Rachmaninoff concerto , but it inevitably reminds me of rain dripping off the leaves of trees. Not that I don't love it, I really do, but it is so evocative of rain that I was very amused by the CD title. Ashkenazy is particularly good with Rachmaninoff. ...

Just great!

I listen to it in my office, and that in combination with my new fountain.... better than Prozac. My ...

An absolute joy

+ CD review

So many pieces on this album are jewels. "Le fille aux cheveux de lin" and "Nocturnes for Orchestra - Sirenes" are particularly heavenly. "The Sea at Dawn" has an amazing sense of freshness and motion to it and is well placed at the beginning of the CD. A few of the songs on here make excellent ...

Liszt for Lovers: Piano Dreams of Love and Passion3 reviews
Franz Liszt, Claudio Arrau, ...

Philips, 1997

Beautiful Music for a Romantic Evening

+ perfect dramatic piano

The CD insert design of the Set Your Life to Music series might suggest that this is a collection "Classical Lite." However, while this compilation provides some Liszt's most well-known music, these beautiful and deep pieces should not be mistaken for "easy listening." These are wonderful ...
