 | Beethoven: Missa Solemnis /Mannion * Remmert * Taylor * Hauptmann * La Chapelle Royale * Orchestre des Champs Elysees * Herreweghe [Read More ...]
Review: Wonderful!:I have always enjoyed listening to masses and requiems. This is one of the best masses I have ever heard. The chorus and orchestra are well balanced and both are filled with an overwhelming amount of emotion. The soloists are perfect. I love Rosa Mannion's voice, h... |
 | Beauty & The Beast [Read More ...]
Review: This West End Cast Recording is a Real "Beauty!":As someone who is a huge fan of the original Disney film, the Broadway stage show, and even a Cogsworth in a local high school production, I have to say that the London Cast Recording of "Beauty" does outstrip the Original Broadway... |
 | Bach: St. John Passion [Read More ...]
Review: beautiful:Back in the golden days of Napster I downloaded a few of these songs from someone in Italy who didn't speak English and it took me a long time to figure out who had produced it. (I also downloaded some Matthew's that I've yet to figure out.) I'm no expert but I went t... |
 | South Pacific (Royal National Theatre Production - 2001 London Cast) [Read More ...]
Review: AMAZING!!!!:When searching for recordings of South Pacific, I first got the Original Broadway Cast with Mary Martin and Ezio Panza. While the two are outstanding, the recording itself is wornout, fuzzy, and limp. I next bought the 2-disc 1997 Studio Cast recording, which is com... |

 | J.S. Bach: Oster-Oratorium [Read More ...]
Review: Yet another great Bach Oratorio. Kantata, not so great.:This Oster-Oratorium, BWV 249 like Bach's lesser masses, probably gets lost in the rush to his 'Magnificat', 'St. Matthew's Passion', and 'Mass in B-Minor', but this is a great, and nicely concise work. I am especially fond ... |
 | Room at the Top [Read More ...]
Description: This is his 18th album in 15 years, but the guru of the Hammond is anything but stale on this groove-laden long-player. High on funk, long on soulful organ fills, & full of the Quartet's trademark finesse, this album proves that there is only Room At The Top for one British jazz/... |
