Customer Reviews:

Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04

Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12

Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20

Frank's view.......2006-08-19

Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

Even a sub-par YLT album is still a great album.......2004-06-27

A completely untypical YLT album, but one I dearly love.......2004-01-25

But I think part of my liking for this album stems from the fact that I am more into pure garage rock rather than electronic experimentation. I have to confess a preference for driving drums, a solid bass line, and a withering guitar to a gentle synthesizer that is tape looped that characterizes so much of the rest of the Yo La Tengo catalogue (though I like that as well, and in fact own over a dozen YLT albums--it is not "either/or" for me, more "both/and" though I prefer the grittier, rarer garage side of YLT). I love YLT wild and out of control. I love Ira Kaplan's guitar work (I use "work" advisedly, because it isn't so clear that he can play the guitar as that he is a master at manipulating it--listen to his guitar on "Mushroom Cloud of Hiss" and tell me that you would describe that as "playing" the guitar). I love many, many Yo La Tengo albums, but this is the only one that gets my adrenaline going.

I like nearly song on this album. "Some Kinda Fatigue" is one of my all time favorite YLT songs and actually one of my all time favorite hard rock songs period. I love the thick layering of sound, all so dense that it doesn't seem possible that it is a mere trio. I also love the weird guitar line that drives "Out the Window." "Five-Cornered Hat" actually sounds more like something their buddies in Chicago's Eleventh Dream Day would play. (For those outside New York and Chicago, or perhaps not even in New York, there is a pretty solid connection between Yo La Tengo and Eleventh Dream Day. I have seen them perform together on several occasions. On more than a couple of occasions Ira Kaplan has joined Eleventh Dream Day to provide a second lead guitar to Rick Rizzo. And on several occasions when I have seen Yo La Tengo in Chicago, I have seen either Rick Rizzo or Janet Bean jump on stage to guest for a song or two, perhaps most memorably at the Metro in Chicago a couple of years ago when Rick Rizzo joined them for a number, and his ex-wife and ongoing bandmate Janet Bean jumped up on stage and undid his pants during a blistering guitar solo--for the ladies in the audience, Rick wears boxers.) And there are several lighter songs as well, like "Always Something" and "Satellite." The only song that really disappoints me is the long, dull "Sleeping Pill."

It is possible that this is an album that some fans of harder alternative rock might like more than the rest of the Yo La Tengo albums. Myself, I like them all, but although not at all fashionable, I will nonetheless confess that this remains my favorite YLT album, and the one that I have played the most over the past decade or so.

love the band, hate this album........2002-01-31

A guitarfest that hasn't aged so well.......2001-12-12

The group is very sensitive about being pegged as Velvet Underground-derived, but if any album of theirs deserves that tag, this one does. The guitar solos are mostly out of the "I Heard Her Call My Name"/"Sister Ray" school of squall, and the feedback blitzkrieg at the end of "Mushroom Cloud of Hiss" may be a deliberate homage to Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music." Other tracks sound like an update of the Dream Syndicate's "Days of Wine and Roses," itself one of the better VU-clone albums.

The problem with the album is it's just too much. Swap out two or three crunching rockers (esp. "Mushroom Cloud of Hiss") with some of the YLT outtakes from the same era (many captured on "Genius+Love") and this would be an infinitely improved album. I hate to admit it, but nearly 10 years after its release, it gives me a headache to listen to all the way through. The shorter, quieter tracks--"Always Something," "Satellite," and "Detouring America with Horns" hold up the best.

Happily, the group realized they were backing themselves into a noisy corner, and shifted styles dramatially on the followup "Painful," which has aged very well in contrast. This is still a must-hear for new YLT fans, but be warned: you will not believe this is the same band that made "And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out" (except for "Cherry Chapstick," which would fit well on "May I Sing with Me," actually).

Not the YLT album to start with, but...........2001-01-05

Album Description

The Enfield Shaker singers are a vocal ensemble of adults and children devoted to the study and performance of Shaker music. The group is open to all without audition, and is made up of both trained musicians and amateur singers. We draw heavily on the repertoire received or composed in the two societies that were the New Hampshire Bishopric—Canterbury and Enfield. Since the New Hampshire societies enriched their repertoire with songs from all the other Shaker communities, they also sing songs of the New York, Maine, Massachusetts, Ohio and Kentucky Shakers.

The Enfield Shaker Singers are drawn to Shaker spirituals that illuminate Shaker communal values and broaden our definitions of the sacred. The songs included on this recording illustrate some of the many ways music served Shaker communities. Most Shaker song texts are theologically direct, emotionally honest, and expressive of our shared humanity.

On this recording we offer thirty-nine songs we have come to love. Some have special meaning for individuals. We associate others with a particular singer in the group, or an occasion when it was sung. Each song offers us slightly different insights into Shaker aspiration, and Shaker faith. We hope that, through this recording, others will also come to love and sing them too. —Mary Ann Haagen, from the liner notes
