A wonderful eclectic compilation. A bold step for Luciano that works! Very easy listening.

Plentiful Prokofiev
Though at times overshadowed by fellow Russian-born composers Stravinsky, Shostakovich, and Rachmaninoff when it comes to 20th century music, Sergei Prokofiev demonstrated that he had a place in the music of that war-riddled century. This can be clearly demonstrated ...
Lagq: Latin
Los Angeles Guitar Quartet
Telarc, 2002
this album rocks
the LAGQ again give us some suprise with this recent release. This is the second best version of Carmen Suite (second only to Romero's, but much better than Segovia Quartet's). The whole album is full of Latin style and spanish favor.

Deutsche Grammophon, 2006
there was a time when 'classical' music was new as well
I really like the music on this CD and that includes the spoken parts. It is meaningful in a way that the English tend to capture very well, the intersection or overlapping of happy feelings and tragedy. I have been biased towards Sting for a long time but ...
Peter and the Wolf: A Prokofiev Fantasy
Sting
Deutsche Grammophon, 2007
Great Rendition!
This version of PATW features the Spitting Image puppets from England. There are both subtle and broad visuals to go with the fine musical performance. This version and Dudley Moore's reading of the story are my two favorites. I highly recommend both!

Absolutely wonderful
I first came upon this CD when I was Music Director of a public radio station and I couldn't wait to get it on the air. The response from the audience (@ 53,000) was warm and grateful. This gal not only has a beautiful voice, but also the training to use that voice ...

beautiful work
I just saw Mr Miller do an opening set before the Sting/Annie Lennox concert in Atlanta. Then he got busy doing the Sting material I love. What an exquisite experience. I was lucky enough to get Mr Miller's autograph on this album and found him to be a really ...

To buy or not to buy, that is the question
When I was younger, I went on a wine-appreciation course. The first thing I was told was: "Don't let snobs dictate your taste to you: if you like chilled red wine with fish, *drink* chilled red wine with fish!" Over the years, I have found this to be good advice, ...

This is music from the angels! Perfect, perfect, perfect is all I can say - you won't be disappointed with this CD. Great to listen to all year, but especially at Christmas.
Great Choruses From Messiah

These choruses have never been sung better
This excerpt disc comes from Shaw's mid-Sixties Messiash, one of the first (along with Mackerras on EMI and Colin Davis on Philips) to offer the small-scale chorus and orchestra that have now become standard. There's only a primitive attempt to osund 'authentic,' but ...

And He Shall Reign Forever and Ever, Amen.
This recording ranks itself on the top of the greatest recordings of Handel's Messiah. Being a live recording, it surpasses every other studio recordings of this piece in terms of interpretation and drama. The soloists are superb, the chorus are crisp and vital, and ...

A passed experiment
Steve Nieve and Muriel Teodori spent 10 years on this project. Very well spent time! They had a lot of hard times, obviously it wasn't a simple project. Bringing together great classical and jazz-pop artists to record an "Opera" isn't a thing you can easily do. But for ...

Masterpieces... All of them...
These orchestrations of Sting's work show the true beauty and genius of his music. It really makes me appreciate what an artist he is and how powerful his music has been in my life. Sometimes it feels like riding in a time machine, while other times it is like ...
