Pleasing
When collections of this sort were popular in the 1950's, by people like Ormandy and Fiedler, they featured virgorous, tense performances that really brought the showpiece quality to the fore. Eiji Oue, while technically a very fine conductor, has a slightly different ...

Exquisite and marvelous
In 1997, during the initial stages of buying new Hi-fi-equipment, I listened to music I knew best from CD's I possessed. As a service to the buyer better Hi-fi-shops play CD's of excellent sound quality as to promote their equipment. One of those was Exotic Dances ...

Emotional!
I bought this CD as someone who knew Eiji Oue when he was in Boston, and I am thrilled with what he has done with the Minnesota Orchestra. The sound quality on this recording is great, and Eiji and his orchestra give an energetic and emotional performance. Having ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2006
The best Paganini concerto no. 1 that I have listen to so far.
This is by far the best Paganini Concerto #1 that I have listened to. I did not write the review before I could listen to quite a few performances of the same, including the excessively praised Accardo. I must indicate that Hilary Hahn is truly the best. Her virtuoso ...
Respighi: Belkis, Queen of Sheba
Ottorino Respighi

Reference Recordings, 2001
Excellent Performance and Recording
This is an excellently played album that stacks up to any of the bigger name orchestras. The selections include a standard (The Pines) and two lesser-knowns (Belkis and The Gnomes). Oue is a conductor who lets no detail slip past his attention and his orchestra is ...

A sound engineer's dream
Let's be clear from the beginning: if there is a better-sounding CD than this one, let's hear it. Even if you don't particularly care for Rachmaninoff, or conductor Eiji Oue, or the Minnesota Orchestra, you owe to yourself to experience their work - especially when ...

Absolutely Incredible!!
I had the extreme pleasure of being under the conduction of Eiji Oue a few years ago for several concerts and rehearsals throughout the country. He is an inspiring individual both in his musical abilities and personal character and his ability to hear the smallest ...

Reference recording
If music is the tonal expression of thought than Ravel was one of the greatest minds in music of the twentieth century. His experiments have lifted music out of impressionism into expressionism in the same way as in literature and painting. The lesser-known Overture ...
Das Lied von der Erde

Reference Recordings, 1999
A fantastic recording of a brilliant piece
What an amazing recording..it's difficult to ask for much more than this. The recording quality is crystal clear, allowing the listener to hear the fantastic colors in this piece. Just as important, the orchestra and the soloist do a brilliant job, particularly ...

A Masterpiece
Yesterday, I heard this work for the first time and was greatly moved by it. While I very rarely do this, I felt compelled to listen to it again today. I guess critical mass was achieved the second time, because on the second hearing I was totally and completely ...
Valentino Dances, music of Dominick Argento
Dominick Argento

Reference Recordings, 2000
Refreshing and poetic
One tends to discard contemporary composers who are, for one reason or another, not standing in the limelight. Dominick Argento, born in York, Pennsylvania, in 1927 is a prominent opera composer in the United States, but he is not very well known in Europe. The ...
