5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Rubinstein.......2003-01-03

This CD makes a mockery of present day standards. To listen to the light touch, the easy "tempo giusto", the natural rubato, and the interplay with the young Guarneri, who play beautifully, without being relegated to a supporting role as with other Big Name guests of other quartets, make this performane one of my very favourites in the whole Rubinstein Edition. The sounds quality too is excellent. I have a reasonably expensive play back system including micromega stage 6 cd player, and the CD sounds superb, with little indication of the age of the recording. BUY!

4 out of 5 stars Remember Earl Wild...?.......2005-08-02

Sometimes it takes a while before a man becomes a legend. With the rebirth of appreciation for the "Romantic pianists" (pianists who took great liberties with scores when the composer was in the tradition of such changes in his lifetime - like Liszt, etc) comes a renewed appreciation for the piano mastery of Earl Wild. Somehow always under the shadow of his contemporaries such as Rubinstein, Horowitz, Serkin, et al, Wild had a strong following among a few orchestras and devoted recital attendees. But in his lifetime his popularity waned when he began emphasizing his own 'transcriptions'.

Well, now with the release of this never less than interesting CD the artistry of Earl Wild is bound to gain a new applauding audience. These pieces are his own transcriptions of well known works by composers such as Saint-Saens, Handel, Rachmaninov, Bach, Mozart, Tchaikovsky, Kreisler, and some of his own 'homages' to Faure and Poulenc. The playing is incandescently romantic: for sheer exhilaration of excitement these transcriptions are inimitable. The only other album to some close to this is Wild playing Liszt's transcriptions of operas!

This is a well-produced and very fun album for any mood. And it just may well be the kind of entry to the big works that young people need! Grady Harp, August 05

5 out of 5 stars AMAZING!!!!!.......2000-09-06

As a pianist myself, I truly appreciated this cd. Wild is a genius! I especially loved "Reminiscenes of Snow White". I'm positively dying to get my hands on the score of it!!!! Very well done!!

5 out of 5 stars Fantastic!.......2005-11-02

This collection represents Jose Van Dam at his best. The two arias from Faust are a little low for him but he sings them with great musicality. The aria from Mireille which is a rarity is sung brilliantly. Mr. Van Dam gets up to those high notes so easily. This collection mostly contains French Repertoire which was ideal for his voice. Several of the arias are rarely performed and I think should be performed more often. The few German selections are very effective as well. I think he was one of the finest Brahms Requiem soloists of all time.

Mr. Van Dam is still singing well at age 65. I think he is one of the finest singers and musicians because everything he sings means something to him internally. That is something that defines a great artist for me. I highly recommend this collection because it is a tool for singers to learn how to pronounce French properly. The diction is so clear that you can practically write it down.

Russian-born Israeli cellist Mischa Maisky is not the superstar type. He rarely makes recordings and rarely performs outside Europe. But his playing, which he does brilliantly and beautifully on this recording, places him among the finest cellists of our time. This program of famous classical melodies, arranged for cello and piano, is one of the finest cello recordings ever made. --David Vernier

Album Details

Though his Recordings Are Relatively Few (Especially for a Major Label Artist), Mischa Maisky is Recognized as One of the Most Distinguished and Celebrated Cellists of Our Time. This Recital of Arrangements of Familiar as Well as Undeservedly Unfamiliar Classical Tunes Amply Demonstrates Why. His Tone is Impeccable, Technique Flawless, and Most Important He Leaves the Listener Feeling as If They're Hearing the Piece in a Wholly Fresh New Way. Joined by his Long Time Accompanist Pavel Gililov, this is a Recording all Cello Enthusiasts Are Sure to Enjoy.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful rendition of outstanding classic cello pieces.......1998-12-11

This CD has rapidly become my favorite of my entire collection. I can listen to this for hours. Mr. Maisky plays beautifully, with passion, elegance and sensitivity. Although many of these pieces are familiar, Mr. Maisky is capable of nuances that make one feel that one has never before heard them performed so perfectly. As an amateur cellist myself, I have an intense desire to run to my cello and play these pieces whenever I listen to this CD. Unfortunately my enthusiasm far exceeds my talent so I am forever returning to Mr. Maisky's playing. Everyone for whom I have played this immediately wants to know where he or she can purchase it. I might just send off a few of these to some friends so they too can experience the beautiful sound of the cello played by this master.

    5 out of 5 stars Great perfomances - cheap price.......2004-12-06

    This is another one of those Philips concept albums where they cobble together performances from their catalogue and then package them under some corny title to attract the general public who might not have much knowledge or interest in classical music.

    Good news for those of use who are knowledgeable and interested in classical is that this is a CD of all Arthur Grumiaux performances at a great discount price! Grumiaux is one of my favorite performers, and Philips uses his performances in a variety of concept albums, one other worth checking out is "Mozart for Coffee."

    All of these songs and performances on this CD are excellent, and the sound quality is wonderful. Some of the selections fall more on the "pop" side of classical music, but with Grumiaux they are rendered wonderfully.

    Instead of shelling out full price for a second rate violinst (hear that, Andre Rieu fans?), why not pay half price for a first-rate violinist?

    4 out of 5 stars Fantastic Fournier.......2004-02-16

    On this 4CD EMI Import, the great cellist Pierre Fournier performs a variety of orchestral and chamber recordings, recorded primarily in mono from the 1940s and early 50s. There are three orchestral works -- Haydn's 2nd Concerto (Kubelik/Philharmonia, 1951), Schumann's Concerto (Sargent/Philharmonia, 1956 in stereo), and Tchaikovsky's Rococo Variations (Bigot/Lamoureux, 1941). Disc two, and half of disc three, contain Beethoven Cello Sonatas with the great Artur Schnabel, while the fourth disc features a variety of pieces, from Bach and Boccherini to Debussy and Ravel, with pianist Gerald Moore. I'm withholding a fifth star because the collection contains mostly historical recordings, though it certainly captures one of history's greatest cellists in his prime. With that being said, "Les Introuvables de Pierre Fournier" is a must buy for cello entusiasts.

    5 out of 5 stars French Songs Transcribed for Cello; Result is Magical.......2000-08-14

    Occasionally a CD appears that is pure magic. This is one of them. Mischa Maisky and Daria Hovora form an ideal team: each performs on an exquisite instrument, and the recording engineer has captured everything, balance and all. In my opinion, transcribing French songs from voice to cello is a "natural"--the cello, so much like the human voice, captures the intimacy and atmosphere beautifully.

    Both performers are natural story tellers, and Maisky, with an almost uniquely seductive vibrato, unhurriedly describes the French romantic soul. If a phrase is to be caressed, he caresses it. It if needs to soar, he gives it exactly what it needs. And the pianissimos! His tone sometimes just seems to come out of nowhere, and the endings often promise never to end.

    Being a cellist myself, I have to say that this masterpiece both inspires and teaches. It has been said that great art leaves one changed. This CD does that, and it deserves a place in every classical music collection.

    5 out of 5 stars Warm, rich music.......2004-10-21

    Each of these two CDs have over 75 minutes of music. Together with volume two of this series, the chamber music aficionado has the opportunity to collect all of Faure's chamber music on just 4 discs. Each disc in volume one has over 75 minutes of music and features all of Faure's violin sonatas, cello sonatas, romances, piano trio, fantasy for flute & piano, and various other other pieces with piano and violin. All pieces on this set feature the piano.

    The liner notes are not first class, however, and there are only about two paragraphs of notes.
