5 out of 5 stars As good as the 1st Album.......2005-09-25

After about two years from their 1st CD "Dream of the Orient", Concerto Koln and Sarband released their 2nd. The content of the new CD is divided into five sections: "Dede the European/Mozart the Turk" (Ismail Dede Efendi: 1778-1846), "From Vienna to the Ottoman Empire", "Musical Contest Alla Turca", "Danubian Waves" and "Mysticism and Ecstasy". The program is well prepared and represent the European (mostly German) and Ottoman (mostly Sufi) music of the era. There are more Ottoman pieces in this CD: while only 7 out of 26 pieces were Ottoman in "The Dream of the Orient", the new CD has 15 of the 27. Please keep in mind that the drums and cymbals of Sarband are less pronounced in this CD; there is no "military" music as the CD title clearly suggests.

It is extremely pleasing to see that this CD, for a second time, brings the East and West a bit closer, at least in music.

Erich Kunzel is the baton and the heart of the Cincinnati Pops. I am fortunate enough to live in the Cincinnati area and have seen and heard the Pops in person. It is an awesome experience. However, if you cannot get to Cincinnati or to one of his on-tour performances, the Telarc CDs are as close to live as you can get! Viennafest is no exception. The care that is so evident on every Cincinnati Pops release is meticulous. The waltzes and marches are melodious and true to the theme of the CD. I eagerly await the release of each Erich Kunzel CD--BRAVO!

    3 out of 5 stars Inspired playing, tedious conducting.......2007-06-24

    I've been tuning in to PBS's broadcast of the New Year's Strauss concert from Vienna every year, but 2006 was the first time the champagne went totally flat. Jansons is not a born Strauss conductor, to say the least. The joyous waltzes, polkas, and gallops of the Strauss family dynasty permit a wide variation in style, even in their home town. Erich and Carlos KIleiber were both bracingly fierce; Frutwangler was symphonic and grand; Harnoncourt idiosyncratic but compelling. Only Seiji Ozawa, who conducted as if he'd never heard Strauss before, sounded as alien as Jansons.

    To begin with, there's a langour surrounding the concert that is quite soporific. Tempos are slowish, phrasing cautious. You won't hear a corset stay snap in this environment. Everything is correct and enormously dull. The commerical package is a bargain -- 2 CDs for the price of one--and the sonics are exemplary, as is the palying of the Vienna Phil. But unless you like to play music as wallpaper, there's nothing to pay attention to here. I'd say that Jansons is trying to become the next Zubin Mehta except that Mehta is a much better conductor of Strauss, as his several New Year's concerts prove.

    5 out of 5 stars Awesome Stuff..........2006-12-26

    The more I hear of these concerts, the more impressed I get. With all the excitement the crowd generates, you wouldn't think this was a classical presentation. There's an energy that you would expect from a rock concert.

    I never really enjoyed waltzs before I started to listen to these. I might have to start getting the DVD's because the scenes of Vienna mesh really well with the music.

    5 out of 5 stars Wonderful music.......2006-05-23

    I watched the New Year's Concert on TV and was immediately impressed by Jansons who was unknown to me. Having watched previous concerts from Vienna, I believe this is the best one in quite a while. I now have the CD and will be listening to it frequently until the next New Year's Concert in January. I hope Mariss Jansons will be invited back to Vienna again to conduct once more!

    5 out of 5 stars Splendid Neujahrskonzert from Mariss Jansons and the Wiener Philharmoniker.......2006-05-19

    I could sense a special chemistry between conductor Mariss Jansons and the Wiener Philharmoniker when he led them on their 2005 North American tour - which visited only New York City - during three special concerts I heard back in early March, 2005 at Carnegie Hall's Stern Auditorium. The orchestra's performances were as vibrant and warm as those I had heard a few years earlier under the batons of Bernard Haitink and Nikolaus Harnoncourt. So I was surprised and delighted to hear that Maestro Jansons would make his New Year's Concert debut for the 2005-2006 season. Indeed, I believe the orchestra made a rather wise, quite inspirational, choice, since the CD liner notes written by the Wiener Philharmoniker's president, violinist Clemens Hellsberg, mentions Jansons's familiarity and strong affinity with the music of the Strauss family.

    Jansons leads the Wiener Philharmoniker in a fine program comprised mostly of waltzes, polkas and marches composed by Johann Strauss, Josef Strauss, and the "Waltz King" himself, Johann Strauss II. But a special highlight of this year's concert is the Mozart overture from "Le nozze di Figaro" ("The Marriage of Figaro"), paying tribute to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in honor of the composer's 250th birthday. Other highlights include the premieres of Joseph Lanner's "Die Mozartisten" waltz and Josef Strauss's "Telephon" polka. Needless to say, the Wiener Philharmoniker plays with ample gusto, led enthusiastically by Jansons in heart-felt, stirring interpretations of popular, venerable Viennese music like Johann Strauss II's "Fruhlingsstimmen" ("Voices of Spring") and "Kunstlerleben" ("An Artist's Life") waltzes. Once more the performance ends on a familiar note with the two traditional encores of Johann Strauss II's "An der schonen, blauen Donau" ("The Blue Danube Waltz") and Johann Strauss's "Radetzky-Marsch" ("Radetzky March"); the latter ending in thunderous applause from an enthusiastic, appreciative audience.

    Deutsche Grammophon's sound engineers have done a superlative job recording this live concert. It may be the best I have heard so far in the annual "New Year's Concert" series. On a more personal note, I regard this CD as recording the most memorable "New Year's Concert" I have heard from the Wiener Philharmoniker since the 2003 New Year's Concert which was conducted by Nikolaus Harnoncourt. Once a year one of the world's greatest orchestras throws a wonderful hour and a half long party of light classical fare for the entire world to enjoy. If you are a devout fan of Maestro Jansons, the Wiener Philharmoniker and the Strauss family, then don't hesitate to buy this splendid two-CD set; otherwise, you'll miss hearing this exceptional recording of the Wiener Philharmoniker's latest party.

    This disc combines the best musical characteristics of Willi Boskovsky (Cream Puffs, Bonbons, etc), Ensemble Wien (A Vienna Souvenir)and The Tanzquartett Wien (Dance Music From Old Vienna). The selection of songs is superb, the arrangements are out of this world, especially the tracts with flute and guitar, and the performances perfect. The sound quality of the recording is masterful. I couldn't recommend it highly enough, and it is a bargain to boot. If you enjoy beautiful Viennese dance music, don't pass up this one.

      5 out of 5 stars Another Dorati/Mercury winner.......2000-09-15

      One of the few sure bets that I've found in recorded music is this: if you like the composer or the work, and if it's available in the Mercury Living Presence series, you probably need search no further. Indeed, I am told that the original vinyl Mercury platters are much in demand by old-fashioned audiophiles, and can easily fetch a few hundred dollars in a used record record. You, of course, can spend much less and enjoy the music the thoroughly modern way via CD.

      This CD is up to the usual standards of Antal Dorati and the Mercury label. Brilliant sound, soulful playing, a wonderful experience. In the light music corner, add this to your Paul Paray selections.
