Archiv Produktion, 1989
Outstanding period performances
These recordings are excellent. Pinnock's Brandenburg concertos remain the standard for period instruments, offering exceptional musicianship and an authentic rendition. The Overtures are also great, although I greatly prefer the readings of Reinhard Goebel and Musica ...
For When You're Alone (Dig)
Various Artists
Decca, 2002
Like a box of your favorite chocolates...
This is a really well-thought-out selection of quieter Baroque, Classical and Romantic works, played primarily on strings but not exclusively. Some of the works are transcribed to other instruments--oboe in the case of a Bach harpsichord concerto, guitar instead of ...
Jacqueline Du Pre: A Celebration of Her Unique Enduring Gift

Christopher Nupen, 2007
WONDERFUL!!!!!!
For me this is the best Nupen's film about Jackie. It has "Who was Jacqueline du Pré?", "Interlude with Johannes Brahms" a previously unpublished interview and "Remembering Jacqueline du Pré". It's more than 3 hours of music and words of people who knew her best to ...

Mastery and joy
Because they lasted such a long time and toward the end didn't play at their best, I found reasons to overlook the Madeus Qt. But in this 9-CD set of the complete chamber music of Brahms, there are some sublime performances--I would especially point to both String ...

Sony, 2002
Perfect for a quiet, cloudy Sunday Morning
I have Magic Box playing and a small water sculpture flowing as I type this and the combination is just about perfect. I wouldn't call myself a sophisticated listener, even though I bought my first Segovia recording as a teenager in the early 1960s and, over the ...

Passion and History
This CD is fantastic. It shows the early beginnings of J. du Pre and her passion. J. du Pre plays the cello with such emotion that her talent sings even in the early days. She was an accomplished player and had soul. These early recordings demonstrate her talent ...

Bad times for the world, but good times for the admirers of Jacqueline Du Pré
These are bad times for the world at large - as I write, the US financial system is threatening a giant systemic collapse, the US are mired in Irak and Afghanistan, with Russia occupying half of Georgia a new Cold War is looming large, Chinese babies are dying by the ...

Celestial beauty, magnificent recording
Although no longer a professional musician, I listen to classical music constantly, and unlike many of my former colleagues, I greatly enjoy listening to collections of movements from different pieces. Some of these collections work better than others, and having ...

Amadeus Quartet

Classic Performance
Much better than the accompanying Britten SQ No. 2/ Trout Quintet. Note: String Quintet in C not Quartet as the item says. Also: for a digital CD, try Alban Berg Quartet's version!

BBC Legends, 2001
These are "live" recordings in more ways than one: not only were they made under concert conditions, with plenty of audience noise, but the pickup is uncommonly bright, conveying lots of reflected sound and stage ambiance. The Amadeus Quartet turns in dependably stylish, well-thought-out performances, though there's little here that's exceptional. ...

This is a fantastic deal!
If you are a fan at all of the Four Seasons you should love this music. I will admit right now that I am a classical music fan. I don't write or perform it. I am a novice listener. I have never taken any music lessons(though I am leaning in that direction) and ...
