Fantastic Music- a Must buy

I heard this music broadcast over public radio, and fell in love with it on the first hearing. When the recording came out, I bought it immediately. It was just as lovely, as passionate, as I remembered. I would recommend this music to anyone who likes music that is thoughtful, romantic, beautiful, and exciting.

A MUST HAVE RECORDING!!!

This is a fantastic recording of one of the finest chamber music additions to the repertoire in recent years! Awarded the Pulitzer Prize in 2004, Moravec's Tempest Fantasy has many wonderful aspects which will apeal to any lover of classical music. Having studied the piece with the composer at the Aspen Music Festival in 2005 (as a clarinetist), and having performed it myself multiple times, I can say first hand from knowing the composer and his intentions regarding the work that this premiere recording has set the bench mark very high!

Beautiful, Exciting and Above all, Emotionally Rich Music

Bravo to Paul Moravec and Trio Solisti for an outstanding disc! The music and performances are extremely exciting and musical! The Tempest Fantasy stands out as a wonderful experience for the listener as the music is extremely visual, instantly transporting the listener to the exciting world of the Tempest. Above all however the music is is touching and extremely moving which is, at least in this reviewers humble opinion, the ultimate purpose of all music! Highly Recommended!

Definitely Deserved a Pulitzer

Moravec's Tempest is a wonderfully depictive romp through Shakespeare. He distills each character represented to their essence and delivers a broad range of emotion, some subtle, some overt. The trio plays marvelously, and is able to communicate Moravec's intentions with great sensitivity. No question, this piece deserved the Pulitzer last year, and this performance is also worthy of a similarly prestigious award.

Enjoyable

Paul Moravec's composition is very enjoyable overall. I heard this piece performed live, and the recording is just as beautiful as the live performance. I'm not a musician, but I enjoy classical music. While I don't have the proper musical terminology to fully explain what I think makes "Tempest Fantasy" great, I can say that Mr. Moravec very nicely reflects the lightheartedness and solemnity of "The Tempest" through his music.

I would recommend this cd to music lovers of all types, from professionals to budding connoisseurs like myself.
