classical music: E Lopez     classical music:     E Lopez      Trumpet Concertos Tomaso Albinoni, Johann Sebastian Bach, ... EMI Classics, 1992 Heavenly. That is how I describe Maurice Andre's sound. So smooth and suave, and accurate every time. The Michael Haydn Concerto In D is one of the most impressive trumpet works ever recorded. Andre does it better than anyone else ever did, if you ask me. He also takes on ...             Guitare Passion - Oscar Ghiglia, guitar Julian Aguirre, Isaias Alvarado, ... EMI Classics France, 2003             Classical Dreams: Music to Inspire Samuel Barber, Gregorian Chant, ... EMI Classics, 2001 Encore! Encore! Like a few other reviewers here, I purchased this disc for Tobias Picker's "Old and Lost Rivers." But from the Gregorian chants that open this two-CD set to the closing strains of Ravel's "Mother Goose: The Fairy Garden," I was absolutely captivated by the beauty and ...             Bella Tuscany: Music Inspired by Tuscany Tomaso Albinoni, Giovanni Gabrieli, ... Telarc, 2004 Beautiful Very beautiful music. If you close your eyes when you listen to it, you can actually pretend you're really there!             The Telarc Collection, Volume 2 Rayner Brown, Ludwig van Beethoven, ... Telarc, 1992 Nice, diverse collection I picked this up in a 50-cent cutout bin with no sleeve or case about 8 years ago. It's an interesting mix of selections, from serious classical (Rachmaninoff) to jazz (Ellington) to pop adaptations (Flashdance theme). The latter is actually one of the more ...             José Carreras: The Golden Years Domenico Trimarchi, Leonard Bernstein, ... Philips, 1999 A fine tenor Jose Carreras is one of the finer tenors of his era, without much question. This 2 CD set illustrates why one can say that. The first CD displays his operatic skills; the second focuses on more popular tunes, such as "O sole mio," "Funiculi funicula," and "Tonight." ...             El Diablo Suelto - Guitar Music of Venezuela Venezuelan Composers, John Williams (Performer) Sony, 2003 Marvelous! If you like both beautiful melody and rhythm of the Latin American sort, you will like this recording. If you like solo classical guitar of the supremely virtuosic sort, add that into the equation (plus a few excellent duets). These pieces are played with an uncanny ...             The Art of Pilar Lorengar Georges Bizet, Gustave Charpentier, ... Decca Import, 2002 One of the great sopranos Pilar Lorengar is the best Spanish soprano of the last fifty years. Her silvery voice, beautiful vibrato, and clear phrasing are something to behold. Her Rossini's Stabat Mater (with Pavarotti, Minton, Sotin, Kertész cond) is the best version of this work. Her ...             Telarc Collection, Vol. 7 Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Yes, these are great recordings but if you settle for this compilation you will be missing out big time on great ...             Bruckner: Symphony No. 4 "Romantic" (Original 1874 Version) Anton Bruckner, Jesús López-Cobos, ... Telarc, 1990 Romantic Bruckner? Romantic? Not quite. Pastoral would be a more apt title. This symphony is full of hunting horn themes. The motives are organic and pure but never too lusty. In fact, the structure might even remind you of the dark tone poem "Le Chasseur Maudit" by Franck. The third ...             The Perlman Edition (Box Set) Jules Eskin, Israel Zohar, ...

I have not heard such musicianship and technical virtuosity since Maurice Andre. The artistry is superb. Amazingly, it impressed me even more than the performance by my personal favorite- Rolf Smedvig. I hope it will be reissued soon.             DIVA ~ 30 Great Prima Donnas Ludwig van Beethoven, Vincenzo Bellini, ... Teldec, 2001 Diva-lightful I heard this CD playing background music in second-hand bookstore and I HAD-TO-HAVE-IT.
