Othmar Schoeck, Rosamunde Quartett

ECM New Series, 2009

A little night music
Othmar Schoeck is a composer whose work deserves to be better known. This performance of his beautiful Notturno by the excellent young baritone, Christian Gerhaher, with the Rosamunde Quartett will certainly help to bring Schoeck to the fore again. Gerhaher has a ...

Schubert: Rosamunde, complete incidental music [Australia]

Franz Schubert, Karl Munchinger

Decca, 2005

Magnificent Munchinger
Many a classical fan knows the Overture from Schubert's "Rosamunde," but how many listeners know the complete incidental music? I must confess, until recently I did not. All that changed a couple of years ago when I picked up Fritz Lehmann's performance in DG's ...

Schubert: The Last Four Quartets

Franz Schubert, Piero Farulli, ...

Philips, 1995

I love this cd!
How can people give this less than 4 stars!? The performance by the Quartetto Italiano is great. Very confident and powerful playing. If you like "in your face" recordings you will like this. Very close miked and "hot" sound. Clearly played and wonderfully ...

Schubert: Symphonies 5, 6, 8 & 9; Rosamunde Overture

Franz [Vienna] Schubert, Herbert von Karajan, ...

EMI Classics, 2005

Is it real?
When I saw this CD here at Amazon and noticed such a low price the first thing that came to my mind is how "Such a superb Art", how "Such fine piece of Music ever" composed by one of the "Greatest Masters" ever has such a low price while you can see mediocre people ...

Schubert: The String Quartets

Franz [Vienna] Schubert, Melos Quartett Stuttgart

Deutsche Grammophon, 1999

Great Music for a Good Price
I bought this set in Dec. '01 and it has since become a favorite in my collection. Schubert is a great composer and in my opinion, the quartets are where he really shines. Sadly, it is hard to find recordings of all but the last four. In total, there are ...

Classical Music
This was a great CD and I listen to it often. The selections are great.

Schubert: The Late String Quartets; String Quintet

Franz Schubert, Emerson String Quartet, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2004

FULL APPRECIATION
Until this bargain priced recording on three discs of the Emerson Quartet playing Schubert`s last four string quartets (included also is the String Quintet in C major, D956 featuring Rostropovich on cello), down through the years, I really did not have too much of an ...

Schubert: String Quartets no 13, 14 / Guarneri String Quartet

David Soyer, Franz Schubert, ...

Arabesque Recordings, 2009

GUARNERI STILL SHINES
I find this recording of the A minor and D minor Shubert quartets to be outstanding. In their later years, they go a little slower than they once did, but to the service of the music. Get this recording. you won't be disappointed. The 2nd mvmt of the A minor alone ...

Masters of Classical Music (Box Set)

Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Delta, 1990

VALUE VALUE VALUE
I think that this is really one of the best values you're going to find anywhere in the world of classical music, especially for beginners. You're getting 10 CDs, each filled almost to capacity, with the most famous works from the most famous composers in the history ...

George Szell: Decca & Philips Recordings 1951-1969 [Box Set]

Ludwig van Beethoven, Felix [1] Mendelssohn, ...

Decca, 2005

And some people say this guy is cold??!!
I just don't get the whole Szell bashing thing that goes on all too frequently by certain highbrow professional reviewers. Just listen to his Slavonic Dances by Dvorak and try to tell me they leave you cold. No way. The same can be said of any of these singing ...

Franz Schubert: String Quartets D 804 "Rosamunde", D 810 "Death and the Maiden", D 887, D 703 and String ...

Franz Schubert, Emerson String Quartet, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 1999

Awesome music, interesting performance
These five compositions--Schubert?s last quartets and nearly his last work, the string quintet--have got to be one of the most underappreciated achievements in the history of artistic endeavor. Who else ever captured such an incredible spectrum of emotions in such ...

The Haydn Project

Bela Bartok, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2001

3 DISCS ACTUALLY
The third is a set of individual movements by Mozart, Schubert, Dvorak, Bartok, Ives, Shostakovich, Webern and finally a sizzling performance of the fugue from Beethoven's third Rasumovsky. It's brilliant, so I don't know why they are being so coy about it. The ...

Meditation: Classical Relaxation (Box Set)

Miklos Perenyi, Jean Decroos, ...

Delta, 1991

Meditative, But Not Boring
Here's the deal: If you check out the individual CDs of this collection, you'll pay way too much. That said, compare this price, and realize it is a steal at twice the price. The list of selections is immense. 101 selections. Most of it you've heard before, but ...

Schubert: Symphonies 1-4; Rosamunde ballet music

Carl Maria von Weber, Franz [Vienna] Schubert, ...

EMI Classics, 2005

I liked this recording
I really liked this recording of Schubert's early symphonies, it is nice to have them in this two disk set. I found the analog to digital transfer to be done well and the audio engineering was good. Beautiful playing as usual by the Berlin Philharmonic.
