Over There - Songs From America's Wars
Jon English, Rob Carriker, ...

Newport Classic, 2003

A very good CD to buy
I have bought many CD regarding American patriotic songs but it is the one that I prefer. The songs are sung in a very classic way and so, there are easy to listen. Jon English as a tenor gives an excellent performance. On the piano, Rob Carriker gives also an ...
  
  











  



  
Greatest Hits: Harpsichord
Mateo Albeniz, Anonymous, ...

Sony, 1995

"Best Harpsichord Recording"
I have always loved the sound of the Harpsichord and for many years hearing poorly recorded or played Harpsichord this treasure is a must have. From the fine compositions to the good sound quality this CD is definately a keeper. Plenty of music for a moderate price as ...
  
  











  



  
Consort of Musicke by William Byrd & Orlando Gibbons; Sweelinck: Fantasia in D (The Glenn Gould Edition)
Glenn Gould, William Byrd, ...

Sony, 1993

Enraptured visions!
The interpretative art of Glenn Gould reached sidereal dimensions in this occasion playing the British virginalists. Gould made the complete journey and ellaborated a fine and fascinating portrait about the moods, mesmerizing approach, creating a spelling atmsophere ...
  
  











  



  
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 ...
  
  











  



  
Faure: Requiem / Bott, Cachemaille; Gardiner
Gabriel Fauré, Camille Saint-Saëns, ...

Philips, 1994

Very sensitive and beautiful period instrument recording
This is an exquisite performance of Fauré's great Requiem and it is one of my favourite recordings by Orchestre Révolutionnaire et Romantique - even though their numbers are low in this recording. Gardiner uses the original chamber version of the work by the composer. ...
  
  











  



  
Gibbons: Consort and Keyboard Music; Songs and Anthems
Orlando Gibbons, Red Byrd, ...

Naxos, 1994

One of the Finest Recordings of Gibbon's Music
The music of Orlando Gibbons represents the English response to radical changes that stemmed largely from Italy in the age of the birth of opera and a move away from the contrapunctal complexities of previous centuries. Whereas the Italian tended to write gradiose and ...
  
  











  



  
The Willis Organ at Salisbury Cathedral
Johannes Brahms, Frank Bridge, ...

Telarc, 1990

Fanfares a blaze...
This is a wonderful CD. The Salisbury Organ is in the very capable hands of Organist, Michael Murray. Not only does the CD demonstrate for us the great qualities of the Tuba Mirabilis and 32' Ophicleide, but also the soft string sounds of the organ. A definite must ...
  
  











  



  
Pavana: The Virgin Harpsichord
Anonymous, John Bull, ...

Astree, 2002

superb
This is an excellent selection of English virginal music, played with great sensitivity and imagination by Skip Sempe. Some pieces are arranged for two or even three harpsichords - this is a fantastic sound, especially as the three instruments used are all gorgeous. ...
  
  











  



  
John Sheppard: Missa cantate / McCreesh, Gabrieli Consort
John Sheppard, Paul McCreesh, ...

Archiv Produktion, 2000

Hauntingly beautiful
I can't stop listening to this CD. It has the most unique pronunciation of Latin I've ever heard. My favorite aspects of the CD is the Sanctus, with its angelic boy choir, the sounds of a censer chain, and the bells.

The CD, Consorts for Viols was put out on the Avie label and made possible by Magnatune. The performers are the viol quartet Phantasm and two guest artists, Susanna Pell and Asako Morikawa. The viol, in its nature, is a chamber instrument. It is not unlike the ...

English Hymn 1
Peter Appleford, Malcolm Archer, ...

Hyperion UK, 1999

a voice teacher and early music fan
MUCH VARIETY OF MUSIC SUNG WITH EXPERTISE. This is a really good representation of 20th century hymn tunes sung by a typical British Choir made up of boy sopranos, male altos and the usual number of tenors and basses. The choir sings very well using good diction ...
  
  











  



  
Handel - Deborah / Y. Kenny ˇ Gritton ˇ Denley ˇ Bowman ˇ M. George ˇ The King's Consort ˇ King
George Frideric Handel, Robert King, ...

Hyperion UK, 1994

Handel goes Tarentino and it is good
The year 1732 had ended dismally for Handel. Once the toast of London, master of Italian Opera and in snug with the Crown and the rest of London's music besotted Royalty (cognoscenti and dilettantes both), a reaction against Italian Opera had assumed fever pitch with ...
  
  











  



  
Glenn Gould
Alban Berg, Georges Bizet, ...

Polygram Records, 1999

BETTER SORRY THAN SAFE
Everything from Gould is an event, of one kind or another. There is a popular representation of him as wilful and perverse, and while I can think of certain performances by him that could be described in that way, in general I find far less eccentricity in his playing ...
