RCA, 1991

fabulous ~~not enough stars!!
This is probably the best CD we have purchased in ages. There is a variety of artists, each incredibly beautiful. Almost every evening this summer we sit out on the screened-in porch with a glass of wine and unwind from a busy work day listening to this CD. It is ...

Background Music
11 tracks--the piano is dominant and with various orchestra instruments accompaning, including guitar. The music has a nice smooth sound--with very talented musicians. This could be good background music for a movie or TV show. It could also be nice background music ...

The Most Relaxing Classical Music in the Universe

Denon Records, 2003

Relaxing Classical Music
I was not really a classical music fan but I am now. I purchased this cd for my 14 year old grand-daughter, not knowing we would both enjoy the music so much. She has always enjoyed classical music along with all of the other teen music, rap, rock, country, etc. ...

Debussy for Daydreaming

Claude Debussy, André Previn, ...

Philips, 1995

Life Is But A Dream...
This CD is just pure magic. I know that is such a cliche' thing to say, but it really is. Of course, it really won't appeal to those people who are into EXTREME LIVING...whatever the hell that means, because to me, extreme living is living close to the soul, close to ...

Music from a Farther Room

Lucia Micarelli, Eric Holden, ...

Reprise / Wea, 2004

LOVE IT and HATE IT
You can hear the passion and emotion in her music. I can't wait to see what she has in her next Album, "Interlude". I have a LOVE/HATE relationship with her music. I absolutely love, love, love watching her and listening to her music. I hate the fact that it ...

Obrigado Brazil

Yo-Yo Ma

Sony, 2003

Obrigado Brazil
The tempos and sensuality of Brazilian music meshed with the artistry and joyous soul of Yo Yo Ma: a recipe for pleasure. I first listened to this on my car CD player and found myself wanting to pull over and get out and dance. The depth of Ma's cello adds just the ...

We Three Kings

Anthony Kearns, Ronan Tynan, ...

Razor & Tie, 2003

Beautiful and Amazing
When I fist listened to the clips from this CD on Amazon I wondered why on earth they put the patriotic songs at the end, and also wondered a little at the other non christmas songs. After listening to it several times however I realized why. They don't leave Jesus in ...

Gershwin Plays Gershwin: The Piano Rolls

George Gershwin, Frank Milne

Nonesuch, 1993

Wonderfully American
I've had a copy of this CD for years and love it. The power and optimism of the music is really quite remarkable... regardless of who or what is actually playing here. The arrangement of Swanee is light but rich with major chord trains like you just want to go ...

Essential George Gershwin

Various Artists

Sony, 2003

Gershwin on the Money!
Perlude #2 of Gershwin's "Three Preludes" is my all time favorite piece of music, and this wonderful cd presents it in a warm and loving way, as I think George Gershwin would have.

5 Stars: Favorites from the 5 Browns

Leonard Bernstein, Claude Debussy, ...

RCA, 2008

Five Browns score best yet CD

Song of Home

James Galway, Jay Ungar, ...

RCA, 2002

Very Compelling Classy Classical Appalachian
I get home from a hard day at the office and put on my headphones and am transported to heaven. If I had only two hours left of life on earth, I would want to listen to this album for one of them and we won't discuss the other hour please! Galway, Ungar, and Mason are ...
