1 out of 5 stars The Most Relaxing Classical Album In the World Eveer, Volume II.......2006-08-28

Good selection of music, poorly performed and badly arranged. Good album for a tag sale. Same comment applies for Volume I.

5 out of 5 stars Great music listein to while you read in bed.......2005-08-21

I have listened to this CD for the last several years before going to sleep at night. I love classical music, and this is great music to help make my soul feel at peace and unwind after a taxing day.

5 out of 5 stars A must buy for the non-snobbish classical music fan........2004-10-22

I bought Vol. 1 of this series and was quite satisfied, but I have to say I'm more than satisfied with this one. If you can just mellow out and enjoy some great pieces, you'll love this CD. #15 on Disc 2 is almost worth the price alone!

5 out of 5 stars A bliss of spirit........2004-09-18

That's disc will open You a wonderful, beautiful world of sounds, their harmony & emotion : you'll feel your heart full of
Joy, Tears, Love.
Good LUCK!

2 out of 5 stars Boring.......2004-05-11

cd arrived fast, in excellent shape as promised, well packaged to protect it during shipment. I'd heard the CD during an exercise class and had trouble trying to get it from other vendors so especially appreciated Amazon.

5 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL CD.......2007-05-08

I was so happy to find this on CD I have the original on a cassette from childhood. I loved it then and now and now my children listen and love it.

5 out of 5 stars Good upbeat working music.......2007-03-08

I love these CDS . . what a brilliant idea to add a beat to the most popular classical songs of all time. It is great upbeat music that gets you going. I specifically use it for when I need a boost to get me going on housework. It get you in just the right mood to start working. My kids love it too.

Since New Edition and Boyz II Men ceded their R&B group throne of the '80s and early '90s, it's been hard to keep up with the myriad groups that have tried to take their place. But Bad Boy's resident gentlemen, 112, have always stood out from the crowd. Their latest release, Part III, further solidifies the group's appeal. On "It's Over Now," the album's first single, the group does what they do best: combining impressive vocals with Bad Boy's trademark hip-hop production. Likewise, on "Dance with Me," an intricately produced song with an infectious heartbeat bass line, the group reminds listeners that their singing ability is in a league of its own. Part III is not without its shortcomings, however. Songs like "I Think" and "Player," two monotonous attempts at romantic ballads, could have been deleted from the album without being missed. To the group's credit, however, Part III is one of the most varied and truly captivating albums that the R&B world has seen in a long time. From beautiful harmonizing to upbeat party pleasers, Part III places the four members of 112 up there with the legends of their genre. --Felicia A. Wilks

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Helluva Comeback.......2007-04-26

As I said before, 112's sophomore album "Room 112" showed room for growth and improvement, and they did just that in this CD. A lot of dance hits and slow hits, this album is clearly a junior replica of their debut self-titled album.

4 out of 5 stars 4 1/2 Stars... 112's Best Album Period.......2007-03-16

This album was definitely a banger from start to finish. They came heavy with the club bangers in the beginning and smoothed it out in the end. The interludes were on point especially "Q,Mike,Slim,Daron" they killed it. Mike put his heart and soul on "Missing You" whoever was his girl definitely hit a chord. "Dont Be Mad" feat. Twista was definitely bout it with 112 talking about handling another dude's girl. That was a bold song. All the members really shined on this album as far as lead vocals, producing. You really see these gentlemen coming into their craft. Just wish they were still on Bad Boy because they fell off since they went to Def Jam. Good Luck in the future.

5 out of 5 stars Part III is grown & sexy!!.......2006-04-23

112 came HOT with this one--from start to finish! Q, Mike, Slim and Daron showed that they are MEN now and doing more MANLY things ("Peaches & Cream") even if it breaks a few hearts ("Player"). What I liked most about this album was hearing Mike sing lead on more songs than he did on the last two albums. That brother sang his heart out on "Missing You". I knew he could sing, but I didn't realize just how soulful his voice was! I loved all the songs, except for "I Think". It's an okay song, but it's a bit corny and I chuckle every time I listen to it. Other than that, I am still a 112 fanatic!

5 out of 5 stars The Biggest 112 Album!.......2005-05-08

Lots of People said this one is the best album of 112,
Part III is great for sho',
but actually every 112 album got its point,
I like all of their album!
So I don't think Part III is their best cause all of their album is awesome!
[besides Hot and Wet which I haven't get!]

But, Part III is the most success album by 112,
because its got The MOST popular 112 song,
Peachers and Cream, everyone love it!

112 Intro - Just a intro of the album!
With a Tight Biggie's [Dead Wrong] beat!

Dance With Me - One Of The Hottest song in this album,
A very good song to dance to!
Tight beat, Slim sing well,
plus a freakin' catchy hook! 5/5

It's Over Now - The first time I listen to it,
I think it's just alright!
But that's normal,
because many 112 songs I don't feelin' them at first,
112 songs always grow on me!
This one is very nice and the bridge is very Great!!! 5/5

Peaches and Cream - The Biggest Hit song 112 ever made!
very hot and danceable!
You Know What I Mean? 5/5

I Surrender - Interlude,
I said many times before that 112 interlude is always very great,
not some stupid skit like other did,
Not some so-call funny stuff,
Their skit is always with a nice beat and some best harmonic chorus!
This interlude is very well,
but the reason it haven't got 5 out of 5,
beacuse this album got another one even better than this! 4/5

Missing You - Nice song mostly sing by Mike!
A very nice ballad! 5/5

All I Want Is You - It's so difference with other 112 song,
the beat is not smooth or melodic RnB stuff,
It's more hard with a distorted guitar,
the hook is not too nice for me,
They wanna try something new,
but I think they can do better than this! 3.5/5

Don't Hate Me - Don't hate 112 if your girl fxxx with them!
haha! I like this one!
Ah! Forget to tell y'all it feat. Twista! 4.5/5

Q, Mike, Slim, Daron - The Best interlude 112 ever made!
The beat is very smooth and mellow!!!
You can't press the skip buttom! 5/5

Player - I don't know why people don't like this one!
The chorus is nice with some great harmony!
And Q high pitch singin' is always sounds well! 5/5

Sweet Love - S nice slow jam,
Nice but not my favorite! 4/5

Smile - I love this song, very great ballad!!!
I love those lyrics and this song is so catchy! 5/5

Caught Up - Not my favorite! 3/5

Do What You Gotta Do - Very Nice song!
Mid-Tempo and more laid-back! 4.5/5

I Think - Not my favorite! 3.5/5

Still In Love - This one remind me Crazy Over You!
Very Great ballad! Ojne of my favorite! 5/5

Part III is very great album,
Got Nice slow jam like It's Over Now, Missing You, Smile, Do What You Gotta Do, Still In Love
Got Blazin' club Hits like Dance With Me and Peaches and Cream!
A Must Have!

5 out of 5 stars My favorite album.......2005-04-02

This CD is 112 at their very best. It's the perfect mix of R&B and clubby music. The vocals are smooth, the lyrics are hot...what more can you ask for? Part Three is serious ear candy. If you don't have it, get it!

1 out of 5 stars Worst Choice of Music from a Movie.......2005-02-27

The Godfather III was a good movie, it had great music, especially one song Brucia La Terra, that Michael's son sang to him in the party before he made his appearance in the Opera, of course someone in their crazy choices left this most beautiful of songs of Sicily out of the CD....W H Y ?????

5 out of 5 stars This CD is an offer you can't refuse........2002-10-03

This CD is real first class stuff. However, I was more then disappointed that it did not have song Brucia la Terra. I was looking for that song ever since I heard it in the movie.

5 out of 5 stars Emotive and Stimulating.......2001-11-04

The most beautiful music from my favourite opera 'Cavalleria Rusticana'and very fitting for a beautifully made film. I echo the sentiments of 'dgabello' Washington. I too was slightly disappointed that one of the most beautiful songs from the film "brucia la terra" was not on the disc. However, despite this, the disc is worth buying. I never get tired of hearing it.

4 out of 5 stars Memories.......2000-09-28

The memories this CD bring back of the whole trilogy are just startling. They only thing this CD is missing is Brucia la Terra (aka Anthonys song, or My earth is burning). That song does not appear on any of the other cd's, unfortunatly, but for all you Godfather lovers, just buy the cd, for it will make you feel like you were watching the movie.

5 out of 5 stars A Sumptuous Symphony for the Final Movement of The Godfather.......2000-01-02

This soundtrack, like the movie THE GODFATHER PART III, is an unqualified MASTERPIECE. It not only evokes the emotions of the previous Godfather movies through subtle motifs such as the Immigrant's Theme it also brings to life the the nuances of the film's overarching tragedy(especially Tracks 2,8,AND,10). In the end this EXCELLENT soundtrack earns its place with those of Godfather I & II by being, in one CD, the EPIC SUMMATION of the GREATEST SAGA IN MOTION PICTURE HISTORY.

The Godfather saga may have its roots in pulp fiction, but the vision of director Francis Ford Coppola turned the story of Don Vito Corleone into an epic, multigenerational metaphor for modern American society and its place in the world. Coppola's musical choices were equally sage; aged Italian scoring legend Nino Rota's mournful solo trumpet theme ("Godfather Waltz") would become both a crucial, emotional link in all three films and an enduring modern icon on a par with the themes to Star Wars and Jaws.

This compendium gathers key themes from the Godfather trilogy in modern rerecordings, by conductor Paul Bateman and the Prague Philharmonic, that are sonically pristine and faithful to the originals. Utilizing the rich musical heritage of his native Italy (and occasionally evoking memories of his great collaborations with Fellini), Rota's Godfather music would ultimately net him his only Oscar ®, for Godfather II. Carmine Coppola, the director's father, supplements Rota's work with music that's more distinctly ethnic, while the prelude from Italian classical composer Pietro Mascagani's masterful opera Cavalleria Rusticana becomes a crucial element in Godfather III, filling the void left by Rota's passing in 1979. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Noticeably different from the original soundtrack, but that doesn't make it any less fantastic........2006-11-10

When I first reading the reviews to this Soundtrack collection, I was a bit skeptical, as I read many reviews which mentioned the differences among this collection and the original soundtracks. Being a huge fan of the films and their music, I was a bit nervous about my purchase, but figured how bad could it sound? It's the Godfather!

However, when I got the CD in the mail, I was pleasantly surprised. While I did notice some differences (Tarantella sounds somewhat changed) between the Collection songs and the original analogs, they were not a change for worse. These tracks produced the same, if not greater emotional response than those from the films.

Listening to the whole soundtrack is a great experience from beginning to end for fans of the films and their music, and I absolutely praise the Prague Philharmonic orchestra, Crouch End Festival Chorus, and conductor Paul Bateman for their excellent transition of the original work into this 30th Anniversary collection.

If you like the music from the films, get this disc!

4 out of 5 stars pensieri da Staciella.......2004-06-29

E un vero piacere per me quando ascolto a chisto disco perche le canzoni mi fanno ricordare Sicilia. Ma chisto disco manca solamente una canzone speciale, "E Bruciata La Terra." 'Sta canzone era cantata dal figghiu di Michele quando sono in Sicilia. Chista canzone e una canzone di Sicilia antica, rappresenta la cultura siciliana, e veramente e una canzone beddissima.

2 out of 5 stars Do not confuse music you love with rendition you won't.......2003-11-11

I would not like to repeat what another reviewer said there: this is no original soundtrack. It is a very professional - and very uninspired - job by Prague Philarmonic who might have followed the music sheet but they lost the magic.

Yes, the tunes are memorable and, right from the first movements, they evoke the ghosts of complex cinematic imagery that are so deeply ingrained in the mind of anyone who loves this film. But the magic is gone. You know it's not THE soundtrack, and you've heard the real thing so many times.

The truth is that if you had Pavarotti to sing classic songs of The Rolling Stones, you would be disappointed with the result - despite the fact that Luciano has a much better voice than Mick Jagger.

Those artists who recorded the original soundtrack 30 years ago in Hollywood - and who remembers their names today? - were probably not as accomplished as the Prague Philarmonic. But they created the real thing, and therefore this cover disc will forever be no more than nice background music. That's all I use it for.

5 out of 5 stars Great Quality.......2003-07-15

I bought this after watching the movies for the first time, and listened to it, without noticing any difference. I just went, "what an amazing remastering job", then I saw that they were re-recorded. I never thought there was that big a difference when watching the movies over and over, and I really scrutinize re-recordings generally(like those done for Star Wars).

I bought the regular Godfather 1 cd after this, and I've hardly touched it since I bought it. I think this Godfather Trilogy is far superior in audio quality and performance. I think it has more feeling then the originals.

2 out of 5 stars Disappointing performance of classic Godfather music..........2003-01-09

I am a die-hard Godfather afficianado and I was terribly disappointed in this CD. When I purchased it, I didn't realize it was not a recording of the original soundtrack from the movie. Instead, it is a reproduction of the songs by The City of Prague Philharmonic. The performance is technically accurate, but does not at *all* convey the emotion of the movie's moments. It's as if the musicians studied the score, but never saw the movie. In track after track, the rhythms are not quite right, the mood is not set, etc, which is jarring for someone who knows the movies well. If you just want to hear some pleasing music, buy this CD. If you intend to buy a CD of The Godfather soundtrack in order to re-experience the magic of the Godfather movies themselves, look elsewhere.

4 out of 5 stars Mill. Classical review.......2007-05-13

This is a great set of recordings for the money, the only problem was I've had to clean some of the CD's before they played correctly.

4 out of 5 stars classical music for the unitiated.......2007-04-01

This set is a good way to start listening to classical music. It's very well produced and easy to listen to. I purchased it to use as part of my world history high school class. It would have been nice to have some bio information on the composers. However, the product is exactly as advertised and good value for the money. The students were intrigued by how many of the excerpts they had heard before.

4 out of 5 stars Some little gems there that I had forgotten!.......2007-03-30

Although I studied classical music at school, I had all but forgotten it until I bought this set. I heard several tracks I haven't heard for over 30 years, and I had been humming Brahms's 'Hungarian Dance no. 5' for years without ever knowing what it was and it was on the disc, so that was nice.

I found it to be a very good selection overall, but I felt too much had already been heard on TV, which of course is what lots of newcomers to classical music might appreciate. I managed to find about 2 hours of tracks that I wanted to keep, which works out quite expensive per disc, but I did find some wonderful music I had completely forgotten about, so it was worth it. All in all, it represents good value, and I have only knocked one star off as so much of it had been used in adverts.

It is definitely a good introduction to classical music, and it has made me want to listen to more of it, so I don't regret this 'expensive' purchase one bit!

Classical Masterpieces of the Millennium [20 CD Set]

5 out of 5 stars A very helpful collection.......2007-03-24

I define this set as an excellent way to find out who you like, and who you don't, among 20 of the important composers. It opens the door to purchasing more complete pieces by composers you do like, and can save a lot of time and money in the process.
To criticize the set for not containing more composers, or more than just snippets of those who are in the set, is missing the point: it is a helpful introduction to finding your way in the huge maze of classical music. It succeeds admirably in this.
Sound quality is uniformly very good on an audiophile system.
Highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2007-03-08

A great way to start a classical music collection. It's nice to have a full CD of each composer. It makes it easy to keep track of selections/composers I already have and what composers I still need to puchase to complete my collection.

I wasn't expecting to have 4 discs for this price, and the music is a quality selection of film music, giving a good scope of the genre, and a very listenable transfer.

4 out of 5 stars The Sound Track Since Bernard Hermann.......2006-07-25

Very good value.

For the price, this CD is a great bargain. The musical selections, as you might expect, are mixed in quality ranging from extraordinary to so so, the balance being worthwhile and interesting. Sonically the CD is excellent.

5 out of 5 stars Relax and rejuvenate........2005-12-11

I bought this album after a massage therapist played it during a massage. Miller evokes many emotions through his mastered art of guitar playing and I think many can appreciate the tone and mood his music sets. A-list singers paired with his rendition of popular and traditional pieces are a winning combination. Truly magical!

5 out of 5 stars A Superb Escape.......2005-11-29

I enjoy all sorts of music from techno & trace through to the classics and smooth jazz, and this is a superb easy listening album that spans an emotional spectrum. Thanks to Qantas who featured the album in-flight during November 2005 so I listened to it for hour after hour. What a find - this is music to escape to, favourite tracks: 3. Shape Of My Heart with Sting, 10. Mi Fe with Alejandro Lerner, 11. Prelude No. 3 with the smooth sounds of Chris Botti. But Dominic Miller's sublime guitar work is the presence that binds all these pieces into a fantastic journey that can be listened to now, and for all time.

5 out of 5 stars Classical guitar magnificence.......2005-05-20

I too first heard Dominic perform as Sting's opening act in the second half of the Sacred Love tour. I ejoyed the set, and was prepared for the disc to be entertaining, but not as remarkable as it is.

In the little bend into the first note of the CD, Miller lets us know that what he's got in store for us will be subtle, respectful, elegant, and astoundingly technical and beautiful at the same time; that he respects and loves the music he's playing, but will play it as himself and from his heart, not just as a technically superior musician. His choices in the Bach pieces in particular are brilliant, unexpected, and profoundly affecting. The recording is very clean and very intimate.

I highly recommend this album to pop fans who aren't particularly interested in classical music, and to classical music fans who don't particularly like pop. Some very sophisticated arranging along with Miller's brilliant performances will convince both sides that maybe there's more in the other's camp than they thought.

5 out of 5 stars beautiful work.......2004-09-06

I just saw Mr Miller do an opening set before the Sting/Annie Lennox concert in Atlanta. Then he got busy doing the Sting material I love. What an exquisite experience.

I was lucky enough to get Mr Miller's autograph on this album and found him to be a really nice guy.

This is a great album and one that I can listen to over and over again. The remake of "Shape of My Heart" is outstanding, especially with his long time partner Sting on vocals.

This album is a must have. Thanks Dominic!

5 out of 5 stars Relaxing music doesn't get any better than this.......2004-05-17

Dominic Miller's Shapes is exquisitely beautiful.
From Bach's Air on a G String to Sate's Gymnopedie. From Moonlight Sonata to Sting's glorious vocals in Shape of my heart, everything about this album is stamped with class.
Turn down the lights and lie back and enjoy.

  1. Shostakovich Waltzes

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Totally infectious.......2003-01-07

Shostakovich is mostly known for his serious works, his symphonies and string quartets, however he wrote a large number of film, incidental, and ballet music. This CD compiles many of his waltzes and some other pieces from these. While this is mainly what could be considered "light" music, many of the pieces have wonderful melodies and coloful orchestrations.

Some of my favorite waltzes include the one from Return of Maxim, the one from Golden Hills, and the one from The First Echelon (aka Waltz #2 from the 2nd Jazz Suite). Beyond the waltzes there are some other pieces, including the famous Polka from The Age of Gold and Folk Festival (Spanish Dance) from The Gadfly.

The only caveat is that some of the pieces don't reference their original source (rather they are listed as being from various ballet suites, when they in fact come from The Limpid Stream and other sources), but this is a very minor complaint. The performance and sound is wonderful, and unless you are one who can't stand this sort of compilation, it gets my highest recommendation.

5 out of 5 stars Surprisingingly enjoyable stuff.......1999-10-04

After years of my hearing and not thinking very much of Shastakovich's symphonies, this Delos delight came as a total surprise. Containing just under an hour of mostly waltzes mixed with some polkas, a galop, and even setting of "Tahiti Trot" (inspired by "Tea for Two" of all things), this concert gives us a rare chance to hear a good deal of music this composer wrote for films seldom if ever seen outside of Russia as well as some more familiar stuff from his ballets. Not one really great piece, nor not really boring one. Just a boxful of what Thomas Beecham used to call "Bonbons" from a very unexpected source. Lots of fun from Delos.
