Carl Orff: Carmina Burana

Deutsche Grammophon, 1996
Misrepresentation
+ Wanted to give this 5 stars...
+ Best pagen music around
This is not about the recording but more about Amazon. I just recently bought this item and I have to say that the sample recordings featured on this page is NOT the same recording on the CD. I can't find a way to contact Amazon, but I thought I'd let everyone know.

Sleeping Beauty & more
Being grateful for the opportunity to share my enjoyment of this recording, I'm adding this to my Amazon reviews because I enjoy most kinds of musical melody (but not so much the Rap rhythm solos). Tchaikovsky (or Tschaikowsky on this Deutsche Grammophon recording) Ballet suites from the `Swan ...

Vivaldi: The Four Seasons; Itzhak Perlman
Itzhak Perlman, Antonio Vivaldi, ...
EMI Classics, 1990
One of the best renditions of Vivaldi's Four Seasons out there.
+ The resentment of Pearlman continues
+ This is a wonderful recording.
I have to completely disagree with the bad reviews given to this great cd. I absolutely love Vivaldi's Four Seasons. Ever since I listened to them for the first time when I was just a little kid i fell in love with this music. So much so, that I too have a collection of the four season's and ...

Beethoven: Piano Sonatas Nos. 8, 14, 21 & 23 / Wilhem Kempff
Ludwig van Beethoven, Wilhelm Kempff
Deutsche Grammophon, 1996
I recommend unreservedly
+ Special!
+ For the Waldstein and Moonlight
This review is probably useless but I will not allow this wonderful disc to continue its 3 and a half star rating. Sound is fine. Performances immense but in a rather understated way which rewards repeated listening as more dynamic readings will not. I feel Beethoven sonatas need clarity and ...

Beethoven Symphonies
+ Good or Great? Depends on your Angle
+ Not for sensitive ears.
I love this set! I am new to classical music, but knew I wanted to purchase a Beethoven symphonies set. I am a bit particular about the orchestra -some seemed rather lack-luster. The London Symphony is one of the best I have heard - there seems to be a depth other orchestras lack. The price for ...

Sony Classics, 2007
An Intimate Conversation Between Brahms and Ax
+ Strong Brahms playing, if a bit faceless
The two CD album recently released by Sony is a gathering of some of the finest moments Emanuel Ax has recorded of the music of his beloved Johannes Brahms. Long respected for his intelligence, self-effacing performances where it is clear that the genius of the moment is the composer not the ...
