 | Angel Voices [Read More ...]
Description: There's very little to say about this recording of ethereally beautifully singing by the 24 young English lads who make up the group Libera. Enormously popular in Asia, the group is part of a parish choir in South London that has been around for many years, with of course, change... |
 | Music from a Farther Room [Read More ...]

 | Peace Like a River [Read More ...]
Review: A source of peace for peace-lovers:This CD is one of my favorites to listen to when I feel the need to be closer to the Spirit. Mack Wilberg is a master at transforming old hymns into glorious arrangements. I have had experience with high school students who love singing his ar... |
 | David Oistrakh: The Complete EMI Recordings [Read More ...]
Review: A Nice Part of His Legacy, But...:As a violinist who has occasionally been known to utter things like "Oistrakh is God!" I am very happy to see this collection come out and I may well pick it up, even though I have almost all the recordings on vinyl. But a few words of caution mi... |
 | Sibelius: Finlandia/Tone Poems. [Read More ...]
TAKEN BACK IN TIME:Sibelius: Finlandia/Tone Poems - No Finn in America should be without this. Thanks to Amazon and the seller, it brought me back 50 years ago when I was a child with Mom. The old record she played until it wore out. |
 | Free [Read More ...]
Description: English composer Robert Prizeman has taken a conventional English boy's choir--usually a haven for sweet songs and ecclesiastical renderings--and made them contemporary without selling out any of their intrinsic charm. Their stacked choral voices and lead sopranos, dressed up wit... |
 | Joshua Bell. Kreisler, Brahms, Paganini, Sarasate, Wieniawski. [Read More ...]
I forget my pain while his violin sings:Dealing with pain is hard work, and slower, gentle music is very healthy for those of us dealing with disease. Consequently I'm always on the lookout for soothing sounds. Joshua's violin music is breathtaking; I forget my pain while his violin sings. |
 | Grieg: Peer Gynt Suites/ Holberg Suite [Read More ...]
Review: Great music:I first heard this piece in the movie "Soylent Green", in the scene where Edward G. Robinson's character goes to the euthanasia center, and only recently discovered the title of the piece. If morning had a theme song, the first movement of this piece, "Morning Mood", ... |
 | Sibelius: The Complete Symphonies 1 [Read More ...]
Description: As so often happens in the classical record business, Sir Colin Davis has been busily rerecording all of this music for RCA, with the London Symphony. And because he's an English conductor working with an English orchestra, the British critics are raving, as if these earlier, ... |
 | Violin Adagios [Read More ...]
Wonderful:An excellent compilation of folk tunes and violin concerto adagios, played masterfully by some of the world's most revered musicians. Features modern pieces (Korngold, Barber), which are a personal favorite of mine. |
 | Beethoven, Sibelius: Violin Concertos [Read More ...]
Description: The Sibelius Violin Concerto was a David Oistrakh specialty. He brought to it a personal warmth and poetry, and he made the most of what critics call Sibelius's "Russian melancholy," which is the term applied to Russian music when it sounds most Finnish. But seriously, the gr... |
 | Time Life Presents: Classical Thunder [Read More ...]
Review: Classical Thunder ROCKS:This CD contains the classical music that baby boomers recognize from movies and TV when we were young. It is a fun listen when you don't want to hear the chatter on the radio or to sing along. When you hear the William Tell Overture you can see Hopalong C... |

 | Conspirare: Through the Green Fuse [HYBRID SACD] [Read More ...]
Review: Wonderful disc from the Austin-based Conspirare:I acquired this cd a couple of weeks ago and have not been able to take it out of my cd player since. This is a quality recording of a wide variety of choral literature, all of which Conspirare performs marvelously. A truly wonderfu... |

 | Sibelius: The Complete Symphonies 2 [Read More ...]
Description: It was clever of Philips to couple Sibelius's least popular symphonies with the extremely popular Violin Concerto and tone poems. Don't let the words "least popular" scare you off, however. If you like Sibelius, you'll love the Third and Sixth Symphonies. The latter, in partic... |

smr:This CD is very relaxing. It is also all Classical Music. It is perfect for someone that enjoys Classical Music, it would not be a good choice for someone who enjoys relaxing Nonclassical Music. We play it during diner preparation and dinner, and also sometimes when reading. |
