beauty sleep.......2007-05-30

This music is perfect for bed time.
Beautiful classic music that lulls you to sleep.

Baroque Music: A Prelude To Sleep.......2004-05-30

This album is from the popular series "Set Your Life To Music"
series. The theme for this one is "Baroque For Beauty Sleep" which seems to be a companion to "Baroque For Bathtime". Baroque music, especially the slower movements in many concertos, are exquisite nocturnal pieces that ease the transition from being awake to falling asleep. The beautiful, elegant, slow, graceful music of many of these pieces will definately relax you and even help you fall asleep. It's therapeutic. There are so many reasons one can buy this album. It can help you relax and soothe you, as already mentioned, and it can be played in the background of a message therapy session. It can serve as music for a romantic evening or dinner. And lastly, it hits the spot after a long day and you're ready to visit the world of dreams.

Respighi's Ancient Airs and Dances, scored for lute and other Baroque period instruments, is the newest piece on the album. Respighi, a modern composer, was delving into neoclassic music and deliberately evoking the Baroque Era. It works wonderfully.
Naturally, no Baroque album is complete without Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Here is the Largo from "Winter" only it is played on panpipes by the New Age artist Zamfir. The sound is hauntingly beautiful. There is a sonata for flute and harp by Bach, the biggest name in the period and Vivaldi's "L'Estro Armonico" as well as Telemann's Suite in A for Recorder. One particular piece I enjoy and think you will too is the melodic and elegant Concerto Grosso No. 12 by Handel, the slow movement Larghetto E Piano. It is sheer tonal beauty. There is more concertos by Vivaldi, whose use of the flute is always very reflective and dreamy and even a solo aria from a motet of his, the soprano Elly Ameling sings "Nulla In Mundo Pax", a lyrical-coloratura showcase which crowns and concludes this gorgeous album.

Baroque to Comfort and Sleep By.......2004-02-16

Baroque is such a wide and wonderful musical discovery for us modern types. It is soothing and quieting to the soul, and in this case for the body as well.

Whether used as lullaby inducing or just listening pleasure and relaxation, this is nice collection. Including wide array of instruments: strings, flute, panpipes, oboe, flute, harp, guitar, recorder, piano, and voice --- this is truly enjoyable.

There is wide array of baroque composers as well --- Rephighi, Vivaldi, Bach, Albinoini, Telemann, and more.

Great price, great variety, great addition to your CD collection.

Guys! Don't be put-off by the cover art!.......2002-03-20

I commend the compilers for creating such a wonderful CD. The music is quite mellow, especially the pieces that are preformed by Zamfir, the famous panpipist. That whimsical woodwind gives a rustic, almost mythical feel the piece of music. You almost feel like you are in Arcadia awaiting a lecture by Chiron!

There is a good cross sampling of various Baroque pieces and Baroque artists. The variety is the spice that makes this CD worth buying and listening to over and over again. This CD also works well on shuffle, which remakes it into a brand new album.

There are a lot of oboes and string on this disc, and being a former oboist, I am electrified as I hear that instruments mellow honk!

Guys! Don't be put off by the cover-this is a good disc. Good for the mind, heart, and soul!

Mellow, but not sleepy.......2002-02-02

I don't know how to sum this one up. It is mellow, but you can't meditate to it. It's more upbeat than I would normally prefer to sleep to, but it works all the same. The music is performed so beautifully that I almost want to stay up and listen.

This CD is also good for reading to, because it is easy on the ears but won't put you to sleep.

Excellent Flute/Recorder Concertos.......2001-05-04

This is excellent, four wonderful flute concertos from the likes of Vivaldi, Frederick the Great, Telemaann and C.P.E. Bach.

Interesting to learn that Frederick the Great was such an avid flautist. His concerto here is full of movement and a feeling of tragedy, and is very intense.

Telemann's concerto in E minor his my favorite off the recording. Interesting to learn that Telemann was famous for mixing styles, and here it is beautiful to listen. Begins with a French slow-fast movement, then in the finale brings forth an Oriental sound with bass tones and strange movements between melody and harmony. Fascinating and captivating piece.

There supposedly is some controversy over the originality of the Bach piece, but whoever, this is still exquisite. The harp work is so well done, mixing around the flute.

Best $... ever paid for a CD!

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.......2000-07-24

10 CD's of beautiful pieces of classical music, digitally recorded for only 20 bucks sounds very good. I decided to buy this CD set because of very good price. But, what you will get for your money? Noting special, believe me! I was very disappointed with some performances, but sound quality of some tracks is even worst. Disc No. 6 is one of the most poorly recorded and engineered CD's I have ever heard. I can't believe that this CD is digitally recorded. So, forgot price and look somewhere else. I can recommend this CD box set to absolutely beginners only.

I had intended this album to cover up background noise and create a restful environment. However, the selections and the interpretations are not suitable for that, they range from a whisper to a blast.

Back to the club house........2006-12-29

The sound suffers here because of the live environment. On the other hand, you can reproduce the "club" environment with surroundsound in your livingroom. If you don't care for Li'l Darling (as one reviewer below), then you just don't like the slow-easy-with-space approach of the Basie-Hefti alliance. Compare with Juggernaut: In a Hefti Bag.

Great "LIVE" big band recording.......2003-01-10

Love this album. It amazes me though, that the crowd in the background is talking and drinking while this great band is performing (like they get to see Basie every night). The recording is not enhanced or particularly well done, but captures the "Live" sound exactly as it was. You can hear on these tracks what made Count Basie great.

A so so album........2002-04-28

I was somewhat disappointed by this album. This is my 2nd Basie album while the 1st one I purchsed is "AIN'T MISBEHAVIN" which is FAR better!

First the good news: The musicianship of this band is second to none and live performances are tough and exhausting.

Why was I disappointed? The songs, especially the ones by HEFTI, are mediocre. Neil Hefti was an important arranger for Basie but not a good songwriter.

The sound on this CD is not good either. You can almost not hear Freddie Green and the horns could be balanced better and the recording just sounds dry - no reverb, no echo - nothing.

I'm gonna check out the VERVE releases and maybe some later live recordings of Basie..hope they'll be better.

Six bucks!? How can you not go for it?.......2001-07-04

This was a very good album. Basie's stuff is always better live, and I strongly recommend this one. You get a couple of tracks from "April in Paris" that really come alive in a live setting ("Corner Pocket," "Sweety Cake"). There's some new stuff I hadn't seen before, like the trumpet feature "Pensive Miss," which I really liked. Great versions of "Li'l Darlin" and "Cute." Strong Neal Hefti songs round out the album. My favorite track, though, is the baritone sax feature for Charlie Fowlkes, "Spring is Here" - very rare, great sound. This is thankfully devoid of the standards "One O'Clock Jump" and "Jumpin' at the Woodside;" they aren't bad songs, but they're on every other live Basie album. Coupled with a six dollar price tag, this CD is a must have for any Basie fan.

Great live recording.......2000-05-15

Excellent recording quaility of a night club concert. You can hear the glasses clinking in the backround. It's very hi fidelity for a live recording. Great buy.

Genius .......2005-08-04

John Sciullo is as eloquent with his compositions as William Shakespeare is with his sonnets. If music is, indeed, the way one unlocks the secrets of the soul then I would have to say that Sciullo's music is the only key that fits the proverbial lock. This is the one CD which transcends all generations and all cultural barriers; this music goes to the heart and soul of every individual.
