Kreisler's compositions
So wonderful to hear the virtuoso composer Fritz Kreisler's personal style come through on these interpretations. Violin students and their parents would benefit from careful listening of these recordings as they study his work.

The Gypsy-within
Its fair to say that violinist Lara St. John projects a public image that can be described as provocative, daring, uninhibited and free-spirited (forget the open top here - check out the bold leather blazer, confident hand on hip, daring look in her eyes and violin at ...

Nicest classical CD I have found for my baby (& me)
This is a very pleasant CD to listen to, and I think the quality of the music is excellent. I enjoy listening to this with my 10 month old son, and we also listen to the radio and lots of modern music. I recently purchased 5 of the classical "Baby Einstein" CDs and I ...

Great Recording
The Kreisler pieces are played exceptionally well. The one disc alone is worth the price of the double disc collection. Great playing.

One of the best CD I own
This is one of the best I own. The music is so great, hard to explain...so moving, especially the first track. It reminds me of Russia a lot. I listen to it everyday while driving to work. I highly recommend it.

An Inexpensive Gem
I find that often Mozart's most profoundly beautiful music occurs in the slow movements, particularly in the slow movements of the concertos. This is a fine selection of slower movements. The overall quality of the performances is exceptional. This relatively ...

Cecilia Bartoli at her best.
A great singer is one who dedicates singing to the text itself instead to himself/herself. This is achieved 100% by Ms. Bartoli in this earlier album of hers. The recordings here cannot be termed otherwise than 'immaculate'. The very opening song 'Gia sole dal gange' ...

A connection of passion
After listening to disc after disc after disc of violin works, one finds oneself thinking, "Where has the passion gone for playing violin?" Yes, absolutely astounding recordings abound, but very few offer the true passion of putting the bow to the strings. Technique ...

EMI Classics, 1992
Fire and Passion!
Check out Track #5 - Liebesieid - for a small sampling of the tremendous emotional pull of Nadja's playing. I have several CDs of Itzhak Perman, and Anne-Sophie Mutter, but no violinist matches Nadja's gift of making each piece her own - you know that she truely feels ...

Outstanding Beethoven Choice, Especially Among Period Instrument Performances
This complete set of the Beethoven symphonies enters a distinguished and competitive field of consideration. Not only have quite a few conductors and bands already had their say; but often long-lived outings by famous legacy and famous living conductors hold pride of ...

Glossa, 2001
Where has this CD been all my life?
Rameau was quite possibly *the* master of the Baroque orchestra (yes, Bach and Handel included!), and this CD is quite possibly the best evidence of this. This is a truly *magical* disc. Rameau's operas contain a great number of marvellously colorful and inventive ...
