Customer Reviews:

2 out of 5 stars not to great.......2007-04-04

We were disappointed with this CD, but for the price I guess we can't expect much. I didn't care for the new style presentation of the songs. I like a more traditional rendering.

3 out of 5 stars Not so bad, 100 tunes for 4$.......2005-06-22

I red the comments of two other people who have bought this 4 CD BOX SET and it is not really so bad. I will even add that there are some excellent tunes. However, I must agree with the fact that few tunes seem to have been recorded 40 or 50 years ago, mainly when you hear the scratches of an old turntable but it is just 2 or 3 tunes. Furthermore, if you do not know American music, it is a good BOX SET to buy if you consider that you received 4 CD for 4$ including 100 tunes. On these 4 CD, I have heard some orchestration that I have never heard before and I consider that they are different but interesting. Any way, after hearing these 100 tunes, you will say to yourself that you like this tune, this other tune, this other tune and so on and you will be able to buy a more expensive CD with the tunes that you like. However, I have bought many CDs in the last few weeks and as you know, there are always some tunes that you like and some tunes that you do not like on every CD that you will buy. So, don't buy it at 25$ but at 4 or 5$ dollars, it is a very good choice for 100 tunes.

1 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for........2004-07-04

You get what you pay for. The singers put their own spin on the singing of each song. If you didn't hear the words you would not recognize some of them. Even some of the music sounds like a bad recording of music played on a turntable. Definitely not worth the price.

1 out of 5 stars Now I know why there were no song samples to listen to ..........2004-07-04

I wish this review had been here when I was thinking of purchasing it. I guess you get what you pay for. If you are thinking of buying this, you are better off recording your own CDs (or at least buying one that you can listen to a sampling of the songs). This album includes songs that were mere recordings of the songs playing on an old record player. It's almost so unbelievable that it is funny.

    3 out of 5 stars A gateway drug, nothing more, nothing less. .......2007-03-11

    To say that this album constitutes a necessity for the classical music enthusiast would be a great big unarguable lie. It has nothing innovative to offer you as a listener, except for maybe the labelling of melodies such as "My Heart Will Go On" (that god-awful Love Theme from the gruesome film Titanic) as a worthy member of "Best Classics 100". But than again, every collection of things that does not naturally belong together, is bound to have at least one outcast where the connection clearly isn't based on anything but cost and sale-ability.

    This might sound like the beginning of a CD-slaughter, or a snobbish review where only the Deutche Grammophone's recordings are meting my standards, but although I am fairly picky when it comes to musical collections, best of albums, and such horrifying destructions of the universality of the works and the intentions of the artist behind it, I am willing to give this collection another chance, since classical music is somewhere between Arabic and wine in degree of unmanageability. It also helps that all the tunes are familiar to almost every one of us, and the fact that the artists' intentions probably got killed by the hundreds of different conductors trying to convey their personal interpretation of the works.

    What I am saying is that this CD can be to classical music enthusiast what 'absolute rock' can be to a rock enthusiast, or to someone slightly interested, with no conceptual frames of where to start the search for knowledge. "Best Classics 100" offers nothing except a selection of melodies where there's bound to be one for every taste, but where the album feeling, the entirety or completeness intended by the composer, or conductor, or performer is completely lost in a trade-off made with variety.

    The collection is attempted organised by giving each CD a different theme, supposedly to describe the mood of the music, and the labeller succeeds only to a limited extent as we move from themes such as 'uplifting' and 'relaxing' towards 'golden'. I wonder what that golden feeling constitutes. It apparently is to be found in, amongst others, "Jesus Bleibet Meine Freunde", and in "My Heart Will Go On"?

    But no matter how I try to describe this CD it will sound worse than it actually is. This because to me it works as a great reference to which I can always turn with my classical music questions. Was it Schumann or Schubert who were the sad one? Of all the -inis, which where which again? Who composed "O Mio Babbino Caro"? The starting point for finding out if you belong to the romantic or the renascence wing, lies within this assemblage, if you look with your ears.

    If you feel that classical music is something you like, and you'd like to learn more about it, this is a way to get started. If used together with a book on classical music, or wikipedia, it can be a gateway drug, leading you towards the great different experiences to be found within the different genres of classical music, and within the different periods ranging from the 12th century, maybe even earlier, towards yesterdays and tomorrows spectacular compositions of melodies that conveys a feeling, a state of mind with much more precision than any other musical genre. Expect a fairly alright collection of classical prunes, and you won't be disappointed.

    3 out of 5 stars Decent Selection, But..........2005-04-21

    ...The Audio Quality is really not great. I bought this CD because I am new to classical, and the price was great! 100 songs for 25 bucks, thats like 25 cents a song, most songs are 1 dollar or more. Now I know why it's cheaper. The audio quality isn't that good. I imported the entire collection to my computer using Apple Lossless, and it sounded fuzzy, not crisp, with background noise, and sounded like compressed music, cutting off the frequency response.
    I then played the CD's through my home stereo, with the same results. I plugged in my SHURE E5c headphones and the sound was soft, uninviting, lacking punch, with significant backgound noise (not just from the headphones), which was especially distracting when the music would get softer. I have heard much of the music before, and it was much more dynamic, entertaining, this recording seems too flat.
    The music selection is ok, but I was hoping for some more interesting selections from the vast classical genre.
    Overall, not that great of a recording, but many might not notice the difference, so if you are new to classical or aren't like an audiophile, get this album because it's a great overview of pop-culture classical, and it's pretty inexpensive.

    5 out of 5 stars A must-have classical music set!.......2005-01-06

    Classical music is, by far, my favorite type of music. It can make you happy or sad, it can make you laugh or cry, and it can make you want to fall asleep or get up and dance. This 6-disc set is a must-have for and classical music-lover! It has all the great composers like Handel, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, Bach, and Pachelbel. Some great songs include: Canon In D(Pachelbel), Morning: Peergynt(Grieg), Adagio For Strings(Barber), Cavatina(Myers), and much, much more. Every classical song you can think of is on here and the sound quality is great. So if you're looking for a good classical music CD, this set is all you need. Be prepared to be blown away!

    Tsontakis: 'Piano Quartet Trilogy'
    Broyhill Chamber Ensemble. Koch International Classics KIC-7550; CD.

    MUCH to its credit, the music of George Tsontakis eludes easy categorization. Born in Queens in 1951, Mr. Tsontakis was influenced as a young man by two formidable teachers, Roger Sessions and Hugo Weisgall. But later neo-Classical and neo-Romantic elements, with hints of jazz and Greek Orthodox sacred music, leavened his heavily dissonant and boldly chromatic style.

    This disc offers three engrossing chamber works from the 1990's, performed with assurance and imagination by the Broyhill Chamber Ensemble. The first movement of the Piano Quartet No. 2 is called "Lazy," and true to the title, the piano begins with seemingly aimless, thickly chromatic piano chords. Yet the harmonies are so pungent and the chord shifts so sneaky that when a magisterial melody for the cello breaks out, you can't stop listening to those fidgety piano chords.

    "Eclipse," for clarinet, violin, cello and piano, has a ruminative and eerie opening movement. The surprising second movement, "Hyperactive," is charged with jerky dance rhythms. Its driving energy combines with the tart, hard-edged harmonies to create a frenzy that leaves you reeling. A deceptively serene slow movement follows, but listeners should not relax their guard too long, because the finale is a devilish scherzo thick with pummeling piano chords.

    In "Bagatelles," another piano quartet, a harmonically lucid and inventively neo-Classical work, Mr. Tsontakis pays homage to the Beethoven bagatelles: "those incredible piano trifles," as he calls them in booklet notes.

    The disc ends with a short bagatelle for piano, allowing the ensemble's excellent pianist - Brian Zeger, best known as a recital accompanist - a welcome solo turn. This mercurial bagatelle, with delicate piano figurations one moment and dizzying repeated riffs the next, is hardly a trifle.

    All in all, an impressive recording of vibrant chamber works.

    5 out of 5 stars Four Extraordinary Works by a Modern American Master.......2005-03-12

    George Tsontakis (1951- ) is a composer whose music I've known for many years because of his long involvement with the Aspen Music Festival which I attend annually. He has finally gotten some real attention and just this past November was awarded the Grawemeyer Award (a prize that carries with it a cash grant of $200,000!) for his Second Violin Concerto. There have been earlier recordings--e.g. String Quartets Nos. 3 & 4 played by the American String Quartet, 'Four Symphonic Quartets' with James dePreist conducting the Monte Carlo Philharmonic, and 'Ghost Variations,' a set of solo piano variations premièred and recorded by Stephen Hough--that deserve one's attention. And now there seems to be a flurry of new recordings, including this one. It consists of three piano quartets, two of them for the usual forces and one in which a clarinet replaces the more usual viola. In addition, on this disc is a solo piano 'Bagatelle,' about which more later.

    To get an idea of his 'sound' one could do no better than quote the entry in Grove about Tsontakis, written by fellow-composer Eric Moe: 'Tsontakis's early works are written in a dissonant chromatic idiom not unlike that of [his teacher] Sessions. His musical language soon shifted, however, towards a classically-influenced style characterized by large-scaled harmonic prolongations and what he calls "the timeless gesture," a reference to the past through evocation rather than quotation. With the String Quartet No. 3 "Coraggio" (1986) he arrived at an idiosyncratic tonal language propelled by non-minimalist, Beethovenian use of repetition.'

    The first piano quartet, called 'Bagatelles' (1997), is in three movements--'Moderato,' 'Solemn,' and 'Scorrevole' ('flowing'). Written on commission by the widow of a Korean-American physician, Thomas P.K. Lim, in his memory, and premièred by the the three Lim daughters (and violist Lawrence Dutton of the Emerson String Quartet), there are flitting references in the dreamlike final movement to the Korean folk tune 'Arirang.' The title derives from the intentional reminiscences, by use of tiny Beethovenian motifs, of that master's late piano bagatelles. The mood of the work moves from dark, somber, perhaps mournful tones to a third movement that is informed by a sense of hazy recollection both in its references to music of the past and, seemingly through a scrim of memory, to the man for whom the work was written.

    The Second Piano Quartet (1998) was commissioned by the group playing it here, the Broyhill Chamber Ensemble (Gil Morgensten, violin; Carol Cook, viola; Darrett Adkins, cello; and Brian Zeger, piano) and premièred at the Cape & Islands Chamber Music Festival (Cape Cod). It is in two movements--'Lazy' and 'Broad'. The long first movement, generally quite slow, slightly jazzy, and even a bit mysterious, is interrupted by an agitated middle section that seems to be trying to become a scherzo incorporating Messiaenic birdsong (primarily in the piano--communication with the composer confirms that these are 'his' birds, those of upstate New York where he lives) but which suddenly disappears back into the initial mood and a morendo ending. The somewhat livelier shorter second movement maintains much of the earlier movement's mysterious tone, a sense of expectancy or longing. It features long-limbed melodies, often with countermelodies, that convey aching loss, underpinned by trenchant piano chords and occasional outbursts of passion. Like many of Tsontakis's pieces, this one ends in a whisper. Here, as in other Tsontakis works, one has the sense of having arrived where music is already in progress and, at the end, leaving it to continue unheard.

    In the clarinet/piano quartet, titled 'Eclipse' (1995), the Broyhills are joined by clarinetist Todd Palmer, whose velvety tones give the piece its general sound. The clarinet, replacing the viola, is primus inter pares by virtue of its contrasting timbre and the highlighted role Tsontakis gives it. The longest work here--24 minutes--it is in four movements: Haunting; Hyperactive; Serene, yet disturbing; and Scherzo: Maniacal. Dancelike passages are much more in evidence in this work than in its discmates and as the subtitles indicate, at times they are 'hyperactive' or 'maniacal,' not to speak of alternately hysterical, driven, joyful or even drunken. I keep imagining that I hear Greek folk rhythms. (I have absolutely no idea if that's true; I do know, though, that Tsontakis, an American of Cretan background, does occasionally use Greek elements in his works. Be that as it may, I kept picturing Greek folk dancing in my mind's eye.) The 'Serene, yet disturbing' (a seeming contradiction in terms) is accomplished by posing two layers of sound, one serenely slow moving, and the other characterized by anxious tremolos in piano and clarinet; neatly done. The fourth movement ('Maniacal') is, in a word, a demented romp. This is a tremendously attractive work and I understand it has already been recorded by another group.

    Lagniappe on this disc is the final band, the six minute long 'Bagatelle' (1989, mistakenly listed as 1996 on the jewel box card) for solo piano, played to a fare-the-well by Brian Zeger. It was originally to have been one of a set of piano pieces, but that notion was abandoned because just after it was written Tsontakis got the idea to write what I believe to be a masterwork, his 30-minute-long 'Ghost Variations' so brilliantly recorded by Stephen Hough on Hyperion. 'Bagatelle' is one humdinger of a piece. It is very reminiscent of the 'Ghost Variations' along with echoes of Brahms, Messiaen (birdsong again), and Debussy. Atmospheric, eventful, memory-laden, formally seemingly loose but nonetheless somehow a satisfying whole. I've just in the last few days suggested to two concertizing pianists of my acquaintance that they consider learning it. I like it that much. Tsontakis has a real gift for writing for the piano.

    This is an extraordinarily satisfying collection of music. I recommend it urgently to anyone desiring to broaden their knowledge of contemporary American chamber music.
