Decca, 2002

High-quality, marvelously varied intro to baroque music
I am buying this as the perfect gift for Russian and Chinese scientist friends. They have knowledge of classical music but perhaps not much about baroque music, which achieved special popularity in the U.S. during the 1970's and 1980's. Russians seem to have more ...
  
  











  



  
Greatest Christmas Show on Earth
Richard Suart, Adolphe Adam, ...

Polygram Records, 1998

The greatest voices on Earth
What better way to open "The Greatest Christmas Show on Earth" than with Luciano Pavarotti ringing in "Adeste Fideles" with Kurt Adler and the National Philharmonic Orchestra. No expense has been spared on what has become Pavarotti's signature Christmas carol. He ...
  
  











  



  
Sousa Marches: Stars and Stripes Forever
John Philip Sousa, Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, ...

Decca, 1990

A top-notch Sousa collection
All of the best-known Sousa marches are contained within this collection, along with a few lesser-known marches. I suppose the producers of this album could have been a little more generous (it contains a little over 41 minutes in music), but one cannot find fault ...
  
  











  



  
Hallelujah: 35 Great Sacred Choruses
David Thomas [bass], James Morris, ...

Sparrow, 2004

lovely works...
Excellent selections... my favorite is the Sanctus by Gounod. The music seems to build in the blood... the organ being the heartbeat. If you turn the volume up just right... a memorable experience. Beautiful!
  
  











  



  
Gloria: The Sacred Music of John Rutter
John Rutter, Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, ...

Collegium, 2005

Gloria
BEAUTIFUL music- classic Rutter with outstanding harmonies, relaxing as well as inspirational lyrics and melodies.
  
  











  



  
Best Loved Christmas Carols
Stephen Varcoe, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

EMI Classics, 2004

a voice teacher and early music fan
ECLECTIC CAROLS THAT TRANSCEND THE COMMONPLACE Listening to these carols extracted from the various Festival and Nine Lesson services held in the Chapel of King's College, Cambridge on Christmas Eve is incredibly inspiring and brings out the real meaning of ...

The Best Carols in the World...Ever!
Gareth Morrell, Simon Vaughan, ...

EMI Classics, 2005

Title makes a big claim, but it absolutely delivers...
This album provides 2.5 hours of excellent carols, from excellent choirs and soloists, and with great sound. I was worried that a compilation this large, and with such an extravagent title, would be B-side offerings, but that's not the case at all. This isn't an ...
  
  











  



  
Masters of the Trumpet
Johann Georg Albrechtsberger, Johann Ernst Altenburg, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2005

fun trumpets
"Masters of The Trumpet" is a simple and accurate title for this 2- disc collection. The recordings cover trumpet/cornet literature ranging from Gabrieli to Stravinsky. Especially enjoyable moments are Don Smithers playing Reiche's "Abblasen" & Armando Ghitalla's ...
  
  











  



  
Philip Jones Brass Ensemble Greatest Hits
Philip Jones Brass Ensemble

Decca, 2001

Welcome Back PJBE
It is ironic that London/Decca waited until many of the important members of the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble were dead before finally releasing this collection of highlights from the ensemble's considerable catalog. Don't misunderstand me! I am thankful for this ...
  
  











  



  
Janácek: Chamber Music & Orchestral Works
Richard Novak, Brian Wightman, ...

Decca, 2004

An Excellent Value
The five-star rating for this set is at least in part because it is a splendid bargain. Not every performance is the ultimate: Paul Crossley's piano playing is very fine but it doesn't banish the memory of Firkusny or Schiff. And there are better recordings of the ...
  
  











  



  
Gloria: The Sacred Music of John Rutter
John Rutter, Philip Jones Brass Ensemble, ...

Collegium, 1984

Gloria: The Sacred Music of John Rutter
The name John Rutter is synonymous with beautiful choral music and this album is a perfect example of that beauty. With the rich vocals of the Cambridge Singers and the elegance of Rutter's compositions, this album will bring joy to all who love fine choral music. It ...
  
  











  



  
Holst: St. Paul's and Brook Green Suites; A Fugal Concerto; A Somerset Rhapsody
Gustav Holst, Ian Humphries, ...

Class. for Pleas. Us, 2003

An Interesting Holst Omnibus
This CD brings together disparate small works of Holst, as well as recordings made in two different decades. So we have very good analog recordings of the choruses made in the mid-70s and quite decent digital recordings made in the early 90s. The unifying element is ...
  
  











  



  
Music from the Royal Court
Anonymous, Adriano Banchieri, ...

Umvd Labels, 2003

My best baroque CD
Over the years from time to time I bought some CDs with baroque brass ensemble music, always hoping it would be so fascinating as what I knew from my fathers PJBE vynil records. What I bought so far all are nice but also somewhat boring after short time. Unfortunately ...
  
  











  



  
The Greatest Classical Show On Earth
Richard Addinsell, Tomaso Albinoni, ...

Polygram Records, 1998

If you could only afford one CD get this one.
All of the pieces are true classics, and there is a varied selection. Most of the pieces are familar works, and the essence of the collection is far above your typical collection of classical hits. If you had to buy this same collection independently it would cost ...
