Album Description

"Everything about this release by violinist Rachel Barton Pine is exceptional." --ClassicsToday [10/10] (on Scottish Fantasies)

"Recordings don't get any better than this." -- ClassicsToday [10/10] (on Brahms & Joachim Violin Concertos)

Chicago native Rachel Barton Pine was a child prodigy who began performing in public at age seven. Today she is one of America's most acclaimed violinists, as well as the best selling artist on Cedille Records. Maud Powell (1867-1920) was the premier female American violinist of her era, and she made numerous classic recordings between 1904 and 1919 that are still sought after by collectors. This CD is a tribute from one eminent American violinist to another, honoring Maud Powell for the tremendous positive influence she had on later American artists. All of the selections are works recorded originally by Powell, now able to be heard in contemporary sound. Many of the selections are seldom or never recorded elsewhere, and all are extremely accessible.

5 out of 5 stars Great Tribute--Wonderfully Performed.......2007-07-13

This recording is just plain fun! Rachel Barton Pine is one of my favorite young violinists, and this may be my favorite of her albums! Not only is the music exceptionally well chosen, Mrs. Pine's performances are top-notch across the board. As usual, her technique is wonderful. And the musicality of the performances leaves nothing to be desired. Just listen to the sweetness of her playing in Amy Beach's Romance! I can listen to this one track over and over and not become bored. Then contrast the fiery virtuosity Pine exhibits in Bellstedt's Caprice on Dixie. Just wonderful! Let's just say this disc is going to remain in my CD player for a long time! Highly, highly recommended.

5 out of 5 stars Should be 10 stars.......2007-02-08

What is there to be said that the reviewers below have not already. As a trombonist, this is one of a handful of recordings that brings me to my knees. Fabulous playing, fabulous tone, fabulous intonation - Joe Alessi is world class. This is my favorite of his CD's, and I own them all. Trombone players: This is an essential recording.

5 out of 5 stars Joseph Alessi.......2006-07-02


This record is mislabeled: it is really music played by Joseph Alessi, the principal trombonist of the New York Philharmonic. You should fix that. Joe Alessi's playing is a whole level above that of any other trombonist playing now or in the past. He is the first player of his instrument to deserve to be referred to as a major artist.

5 out of 5 stars The Ideal Trombone Sound.......1999-09-13

Young trombonists everywhere - in my opinion, this is how a trombone should sound. Mr. Alessi has the perfect sound, the sound that every serious trombonist aims for. Though the C.D. doesn't boast a variety of music (it's predominantly 20th century American), it is all fantastic music, the best of its kind. The last track is amazing, five of the greatest trombonists around, all playing together, it's outstanding. Serious trombone students, this is a good addition to your C.D. collection. This is the sound to aim for.

    Isn't James Taylor mostly acoustic anyway? The sound samples say it all. Orchestral might have been better, like the Boston Symphony or something, but this is poison for everyone who thinks James Taylor is easy listening. Which he ain't, but this is, which is why it doesn't work.

    If you click on the jpg above so it zooms in, you'll see that it says "Acoustic Tribute to James Taylor." Well, if that's your thing...

    Tried to buy a different CD at a local store and ended up with this one instead. Boy is it awful! Stay away!

    What a way to take some great musical works and make them dull and boring.

    YUCK! I feel like I am waiting to have a cavity filled. Or perhaps I am anticipating the wonderful taste of a fluoride treatment dribbling past my lips. Get me outta this waiting room!

    1 out of 5 stars Music to Ride an Elevator By.......1999-12-18

    A hideous piece of fluff. If you're expecting someone's thoughtful interpretation of JT's work, you're in the wrong place. It is note by note reproductions of the songs with a single guitar replacing JT's voice. Sounds like music you listen to when you're on hold.
