Very Creative, Light Chamber Music.......2001-05-29

I enjoy all of this CD except for the Sextet pice. It reminds one somewaht of the soundtrack for TV comics, like that one on Tom & Jerry where the cat chases the mouse around, with the music scampering here, thrasing out here, lying in ambush here.

However, the remainder, Sonata for oboe and piano, Trio for bassoon,oboe and piano, Sonata for flute and piano and Villaneele for pipe and piano are very nice.

Fresh and delightful.......2001-03-14

There's no need to cherry-pick--at six bucks a pop you can easily get all five of these Naxos releases of Poulenc's chamber music. You won't regret owning any of them. That said, this first disc in the series is the best. The music is light without being lightweight, melodious with a splash of early 20th century "modernism". And, at over an hour playing time, there is a lot of it. Pass the Pernod!

Neat. Great Poulenc performance!.......2000-04-18

Repertoire here are all woodwind chamber works.With the idiomatic harmony of French music, these music is very, very charming and under a moony and romantic atmosphere. The performance and recording are both excellent.As this cd showes, I must say that Poulenc is absolutly an underrated composer. His oeuvre(especially melodies and chamber works) should be more famous. And I can not but waiting for the next cd of this series.

Wonderful music, well played.......2006-08-31

This is an incredible collection of pieces from an important modern composer...played by an incredible collection of performers. Some of them are famous, others deserve to be. The variety of sounds, the skillful use of different instruments and voices, and the outstanding performances make this a great CD set. The range of instruments is fascinating, from voice (doing vocal gymnastics we can't imagine) to Paula Robison's flute, to Gary Verkade on the organ. Anyone with an interest in new music should listen to this!

The "Unknown" Beethoven..........2005-01-03

I think it would not be wrong to say that most casual listeners of classical music know Beethoven mostly by his orchestral works--the symphonies, piano concertos, violin concerto, and overtures. Those who go a little deeper might know him by the piano sonatas, violin sonatas, and string quartets; however, this misses a significant portion of his oeuvre--and a major facet of his ethos and art: specifically, the chamber works and lieder: this is the "unknown" Beethoven.

This collection is absolutely the best, finest, and most excellent presentation of Beethoven's chamber works: the Horn Sonata; the Piano-Wind Quintet; the Serenade for Flute, Violin, and Viola; the Clarinet Trio; the Septet for mixed strings & winds; and the String Quintet.

Plus, some really nice esoterica: the early piano quartets; trio for piano, flute & bassoon; pieces for mandolin & piano; and pieces for flute & piano.

All of these works fall into Beethoven's First Period; yet, they must not be considered "juvenalia": Beethoven was the greatest artist/poet who ever lived, and his genius was manifest from his teenage years.

Simply Delightful!.......2004-12-23

This is a wonderful collection of Beethoven chamber music. The recordings are intimate, the musicianship is superb...the music is timeless. The piano concerti are the real highlights here; I don't think they can be any better, and the other selections are very pleasant. If you like Beethoven chamber music (and I can't imagine NOT liking it), then this set is highly recommended. Every now and then you come across a boxed set of recordings that you can listen to over and over. This is one such set.

Brilliant if sometimes odd rhythm and tempo.......2001-01-10

This CD, part of the magnus opus of Beethoven's works committed to CD is wonderfully brilliant and evocative of the renditions of the early 1950's.

Although there are the rare rhythmic, and very rare tempo peculiarities this must remain as one of the finest renditions of Beethoven's Chamber Works. This is of course to be expected from works produced by DDG.

Very Nice Two CD Set..........2007-06-27

.
Features Debussy's exquisite Rapsodie for saxophone and piano; plus a delicious version for English horn and piano; the late Sonata for flute, viola, and harp--(can anything be more French?); and the tasty Rapsodie for clarinet and piano.

Saint-Saëns' luscious late three Sonatas for oboe/clarinet/bassoon and piano.

Here's nearly two and a half hours of unadulterated listening pleasure. The chamber output of Frenchman Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) spans some four decades and more, from the tartly modernist cavortings of the very Stravinskian Sonata for Two Clarinets (1918), via the insouciant charms of both the Trio for oboe, bassoon, and piano (his first big chamber success from 1926) and Sextet (1932-9) as well as the substantial, deeply felt wartime sonatas for violin and cello, to the three sonatas for woodwind he penned in his twilight years (including the deliciously tuneful, deservedly popular Flute Sonata of 1957). There's a healthy sprinkling of comparative rarities too, not least the poignant little Sarabande for solo guitar (1960) as well as the even briefer, haunting Villanelle (1938) for piccolo and piano. Not only do the members of the Nash Ensemble bring an abundant technical flair to everything they survey, they also don't miss out on that peculiar mix of the frothy, madcap, and sublime that are such trademarks of Poulenc's inimitable mode of expression. The year 1999, this composer's centenary year, furnished no more rewarding haul than this immaculately produced Hyperion anthology, which must receive the heartiest of welcomes. --Andrew Achenbach

Customer Reviews:

I love this CD set.......2000-02-10

I bought this because Joshua Kosman (an SF Chronicle music critic) highly recommended it. As with every Hyperion CD I've bought it is wonderfully done in every detail, even down to the cover art. In his review Mr. Kosman cautioned that this is not profound music, just fun stuff, beautifully played by the Nash Ensemble, and enjoyable to listen to. He is, as usual, 100% correct.
