Great performances of some mostly great music
The late Michael Tippett (1905-1998) had one of the most instantly recognisable musical voices of the twentieth century. Although his stylistic concerns may have shifted radically from the radiant, tonally-inflected lyricism of the Concerto for Double String Orchestra ...
Bach: Cello Suites, Sonatas & Partitas for Solo Violin - Christian Tetzlaff & Ralph Kirshbaum (4 CD's)

EMI Classics, 2004
Excellent overall
The two works presented in this bargain set represent Johann Sebastian Bach's greatest contribution to the solo string reportoire. Although usually marginalized, the Cello Suites are hidden diamonds in the solo literature, requiring a depth of humanity and ...

Great value, if slightly substandard recordings, for classical newbie
"100 Best Baroque" is what it seems - a compilation of the 100 definitive Baroque compositions. For a very low price you get a complete overview of the Baroque style, and while the sound quality of the recordings will not satisfy a serious student or fan of classical ...

One of the Best Instrumental Recordings In Existence
I found this recording in about 1995 on cassette, and have been listening to it ever since. Although I am a singer, this recording initiated the move to seriously listen to instrumental music for its own sake. This releases'audio quality, moods, and passion are ...

Well produced Bargain!
When I first noticed this bright red CD in the record store, the image struck me at first as rather odd looking. At the time I didn't know exactly what I was responding to; but thinking back now about what it was that I noticed, I would have to say that it was the name ...
Bach: Cello Suites / Kirshbaum
Johann Sebastian Bach
, Ralph Kirshbaum
EMI Classics, 2000
Feeling and intellect - like Bach himself
Kirshbaum's performance strikes me as being about halfway between the almost over-indulgent emotionalism of Rostropovich and the almost too-refined elegance of Gendron. He has more rubato than a straightforward approach (in a nice mix of Romanticism and 18th-century ...

If you love Brahms this will make you SMILE
It is amazing how EMI can produce such gem CDs such as this ! This Brahms Piano Trios set is WORTH it. As soon as I heard the first piano trio, I couldn't help but smile. The recording is excellent and both piano and strings sound solid. Even Gramophone attests it: " ...

A Dark and Noble View of Barber's Cello works
This CD brings together Barber's two main works for cello, his Concerto and his Sonata, along with a recording of the Adagio for Strings. Ralph Kirshbaum is a thoughtful advocate for both cello works. Kirshbaum's performance of these two works was my first ...
