4 out of 5 stars Mark Lawrence.......2006-07-02

Lawrence's great strength as a trombonist is the simple loveliness of his sound, which comes through beautifully on some of the older, simpler melodies.

5 out of 5 stars David Read.......2002-05-01

Mark Lawrence really has something special here. His interpretations are supremely rewarding, yet beautifully restrained. The Albinoni and Mediatation on the alto trombone are just gorgeous - in my mind well ahead of Alessi recordings of classic string pieces like The Swan. And the Marcello is a formidable interpretation, up there with the best string players, although he doesn't really get the baroque sound sometimes. In general the tone isn't quite as wide and gorgeous as Alessi, but he's picked the repertoire well so this isn't a problem. All in all, an awesome disc, up there with my top three best and complementary recordings out there for trombone (Joe Alessi's NY Legends and Lindberg's Virtuoso Trombone are the others).

5 out of 5 stars Great Stuff.......2001-09-09

This is a terrific CD. Mark Lawrence demstrates complete mastery of the trombone. This CD covers just about every type of music for the trombone, from very melodic, to 20th Century, to Jazz. Buy this CD. You'll be glad you did.

5 out of 5 stars Brilliant.......2000-06-19

This CD shows the capability of Mark Lawrence as compared to other popular trombonists, like Christian Lindberg and Joseph Alessi. Lawrence has the soloistic feel of Lindberg (which is my only complaint against Alessi), and can play convincingly in all the styles exhibited on this disc (which is one of Lindberg's problems). This is a must buy for all trombone enthusiasts!

5 out of 5 stars Best collection of violin playing ever made.......2007-04-12

I am a professional violinist and have long been an admirer of Michael Rabin. His technic is beyond concern. I am familiar with people involved in these recordings. Amazingly, many were single, unedited takes. If you ever buy a violin recording, these are the ones to get.

5 out of 5 stars I really can't add anything to the other reviews..........2007-01-07

...this collection is an absolute necessity to anyone enjoys violin music and a near necessity to anyone who enjoys classical music...what astounds me is the quality of many of the recordings...more often than not violin recordings seem to produce a sound that leaves the impression that you're listening from the back row in a large hall...most of Rabin's recordings, on the other hand, give the impression either he's right in the room with you or else you're in the front row at the concert.

5 out of 5 stars An essential item for any classical collection.......2006-04-20

Rabin is spectacular!!! Just listen to his rendition of Zigeunerwiesen, he has no equal for this piece - not even close! I have been waiting for the re-release of this set for over 5 years, asking EMI if they would ever consider it. My thanks to EMI for listening. This is a re-release they wont regret. I have a collection of classical violin by many artists, but there is something very special about these recordings by Michael Rabin. His interpretations and the gusto of his playing take your breath away.

I cannot imagine any collection of classical music without this set of CDs.

5 out of 5 stars Michael Rabin was INCREDIBLE.......2006-04-14

I have to second Scott68. Rabin was one incredible violinist. I agree, the Paganini Caprices (age 15!) Wieniawski and others were never topped by anyone! This set is guaranteed to drop your jaw.

5 out of 5 stars A Fitting Tribute To The 20th Century's Greatest Violinist.......2006-04-01

If you don't have these CD's get them, you won't be disappointed, especially if you love the violin as I do. If you're a Rabin fan too then this small investment is money well spent. A better set of recordings of violin classics couldn't be found anywhere. Rabin quite simply was the greatest violinist of the 20th century, rivalling, and in some ways surpassing the venerable Heifetz. He was also known for his phenomenal virtuosity and 'voluptuos' tone somewhat reminiscent of Perlman.

This boxed set includes many of the virtuoso pieces that made him famous as well as more reflective pieces like Bach. Listen to these and judge for yourselves what a truly great violinist was Rabin.

The Laserlight label also offers a similar box set of orchestral selections "Meditation - Classical Relaxation".

Amazon.com

Tiegerman, a pupil of Ignaz Friedman and of the legendary Leschetizky, abandoned his European career in 1931 because of ill health. In Cairo, he created a conservatory and gave occasional concerts. This set consists, for the most part, of broadcast concerts and amateur tapes of his playing in informal settings. They prove Tiegerman a remarkable talent. Even at his farewell concert, we hear, albeit in primitive recorded sound, a pianist of tremendous authority. Two movements from the Brahms Second made a decade earlier give us an artist of power and sensitive pianistic touch. Disc 2 includes some of the most remarkable Chopin playing ever--listen to the lilting Barcarolle, taken faster than usual, so charged with spontaneity and active rubato that others sound lumpy and forced. The Third Sonata is incredibly free, swinging from otherworldly pianissimos to powerful eruptions. Be warned: the sound is often distorted and the amateur tapes sound as if recorded underwater. Those with patience to listen through these defects will be rewarded with unforgettable playing of a legendary artist no longer lost. --Dan Davis

5 out of 5 stars Tragic delights.......2006-06-06

Ignance Tiegerman's story is bittersweet. He, like Feinberg, and Sirota, exemplifies the very highest accomplishments of pianistic art, yet was consigned to obscurity while Hofmann,d'Albert,Rosenthal, Horowitz,Rubinstein,Moiseiwitsch,Gieseking,Lhevinne,Rachmaninoff garnerd the headlines.

Tiegerman was a pupil of Freidman and Leschetitsky, and a friend of Horowitz when both were in Berlin.Horowitz is reported to have said Tiegerman was his greatest rival in Berlin,the only one who could eclipse Horowitz. Tiegerman was overwhelmed by Roaring 20's America,and at Freidman's urging in 1931 took over a conservatory in Cairo,whose climate was better for Tiegerman's asthma and lifestyle.

The story behind the search for these recordings, all taken from private recordings and radio,and all nearly lost forever, is fascinating. Would suggest you read the liner notes available at the Arbiter Records website.

The music:

Tiegerman's farewell concert in Cairo in 1963 featured eclectic selections: Saint Saens Egyptian Concerto and the Frank Symphonic Variations. The Concerto had always seemed a trifle to me,not worth purchasing; the Variations a simplistic, one-hearing work. As with all the greats, Tiegerman elevates these works, avoiding in the slow movement of the Concerto any semblance of banality in the "egyptian" theme, in fact transforming it beautifully; and creating a concerto from the Variations, exploring depths and detail in the opening section most pianists simply play through unaware, as most pianists apparently have no clue what to do with the opening slow section of the Variations. I will be listening several times now to both, as Tiegerman has opened doors.

There is wonderful,first class Chopin playing here, grand manner, wonderful tone and lyricism,and when required the titanic technique and sonority of his teacher,Freidman.In the 3rd Sonata, where most take the lyrical Largo as an overly- sacchrine ballad, Tiegerman quite originally takes a much quicker tempo, mf rather than p or mp, a vital lied instead. The entire Sonata is heroic, in the manner of the Scherzi . Yet, in the 4th Ballade, Tiegerman finds mainly quiet solitude where others often strain,IMO, to find more drama than there, simply because a "ballade."

Only the first 2 opening movements of the Brahms 2nd were found,from a 1954 live Cairo Symphony radio broadcast.Only the 1958 Gilels-Reiner,IMO, prepares one for what Tiegerman does here,and the young Gilels simply does not bring all the gravitas needed. Schnabel tried to so play,but did not have the technique;by the time I believe Backhaus would have liked to (his last concerto recording with Bohm in 1967), he did not have the technique. Tiegerman simply blazes through these movements, making a case Brahms of the 2nd may have been bearded, but in appearance only,these movements unfinished business from the 1st Concerto,or 1st Symphony, perhaps informed by reflections on a more passionate life Brahms' recent Italian trip may have suggested. Tiegerman takes great risk with such sweeping gestures,faster tempi, and intensity, such symphonic playing,bringing to mind the d'Albert Emperor, and his own teacher Freidman's approach to the Chopin Mazurkas, but then Brahms himself frequently complained his music was not being played correctly, too formally. Tiegerman knows no difficulty, the technique,sonority in this live performance staggering.One is almost emotionally relieved by arrival of,and in great need of, the pastoral 3rd movement which,alas, has been lost.

Yet, in some Field and Faure Nocturnes, Tiegerman is the intimate,lyrical colorist.

Per the generous liner notes: In May,1968 he was operated on for prostate cancer,an operation the doctors botched.One of his last pupils stayed at the hospital every day until another pupil,Prince Hassan of Morocco, arrived and stayed with Tiegerman through the night,feeding him by hand grapes and apple slices. Hassan and other pupils sought from the Egyptian Government a gesture of recognition, but only a low level functionary was sent, who knew nothing of Tiegerman.He came into the hospital room, and upon seeing Tiegerman, immediately fell to his knees and,kneeling at the bedside,kissed his hand.In an instant,he understood who Tiegerman was. And death came May 31.

Tiegerman lost his parents and brother to the Holocaust, his mother throwing herself before one of the camp-bound trains. Teigerman was buried in the Bassatine Jewish cemetary in Cairo, but refugees from the 1967 War in the Sinai who came to Cairo after the War moved into the cemetaries near Ma'adi,overturning or demolishing headstones,and the whereabouts of Tiegerman's grave now remains a mystery.

"Tiegerman was the greatest talent I ever worked with." Ignazy Freidman.

Suggest you give a listen, before you purchase your next Lang Lang, or Volodos, or Lugansky,or Kissin. Sound not perfect,weak in some places, but surprisingly good most often, definitely not an impediment here.

5 out of 5 stars A definite must have!.......2006-02-11

Exceptional playing from a true master.
It seems that Tiegermann's fingers function as magic wands over the large percussive instrument, presenting unparalleled possibilities in performances which no one else can imitate.

5 out of 5 stars Ideal Chopin.......2003-10-23

Tiegerman, more than any pianist I've ever heard, combined power with restraint, lyricism with structure -- in short, romantic ardor with classical poise -- in a way that seems ideal for Chopin. Forgive the invidious comparisons, but compared with Tiegerman, Cortot for me was alternately grandiloquent and coy; Friedman (Tiegerman's teacher) too often crude; Lipatti too chaste; Rubinstein (in his commercial recordings, less often when I heard him live) too careful; Hofmann too cyncically manipulative -- okay, enough. It's juvenile to run down these giants. The point is that Tiegerman deserved to be compared with them, and we owe a great debt to Allan Evans for letting him rejoin the pantheon.

5 out of 5 stars Unjustly neglected genius.......2003-02-23

We are lucky to have the few recordings of Tiegermann that we do. It is one of the great tragedies in music that he wasn't recorded more than he was. I'd trade the entire recorded output of many other pianists for even one more recording by him...he was that great.

5 out of 5 stars Divine Music.......2003-02-01

Heavenly music, is the least I can say. He definitely was the biggest challenge to Horowitz. It has been a very long time when I sat and listned to such superb piano playing. He is one of a kind. It is very regrettable that he did not get the fame and appreciation who so well deserve.

5 out of 5 stars Lawrence Gwozdz: Superb Classical Saxphonist.......2000-10-16

Based upon this CD at least, simply put, Lawrence Gwozdz is probably the best classical saxophonist alive today. His control and sweetness in the altissimo register seems impossible if I hadn't heard it myself, and his tone is almost certainly exactly what Adolphe Sax intended his instrument to sound like.

I can't claim that this recording doesn't show some minor weaknesses though. The second track, (the first movement of the Sasamori), he appears to have some slight breathing problems (several phrases cut off abruptly from breathing), and at least one early entry after a piano interlude. I also find that he has a somewhat annoying formant in his tone in the pitches around the middle of the staff (top few notes of the lower register). That's very common on alto saxophone in particular.

These, however, are small concerns compared to the very strong positive aspects of this CD, and it's certainly not as if I could play any better (quite the opposite!).

5 out of 5 stars Gwozdz makes the saxophone the greatest instrument invented!.......1999-11-07

Lawrence Gwozdz performs wonderful contemporary music with the nuances that many other performers would miss. He blurs the line between "normal" range and altissimo perfectly. Gwozdz plays with the versatility of a woodwind, the power of the brass, and the lyricism of the strings. If you appreciate music at all, you must have this CD!

5 out of 5 stars The power of the saxophone at the hands of a master!.......1999-04-06

This CD is one of the best recordings of contemporary recital music for the alto saxophone. With the exception of a Baroque dance and a moment of Romance, this recording encompasses music of the Twentieth Century dedicated to Sigurd Rascher. Presenting a culturally diverse repetory, Gwozdz demonstrates an impeccable versatility in his ability to interpret the cultural nuances of such pieces as _Variations on Taki's "Kojo no Tsuki"_ by the Japanese composer Sasamori. Along with Lois Leventhal, Gwozdz gives a flawless performance of some extremely difficult passages of saxophone music (particularly in the alto duet!). If you want to hear a great performance of some awesome music, this is the CD for you! The altissimo passages alone are worth buying this recording -- no to undermind the rich blend of the alto saxophone and piano, the honor given to Sigurd Rascher (this centuries foremost authority on saxophone performance), and the aweinspiring rendetion of "Meditations" from _Thais_. If you love the saxophone, then you will love this recording!
