Dean Shostak's album of classical music for glass harmonica is marred by pervasive amateurishness. Shostak's skill on the instrument is adequate, but the musicians who accompany him have serious problems with intonation. Sound quality is less pristine than one would hope or expect, and the CD's running time is a bit short for such a steep price. The DVD features several brief video pieces on the glass harmonica, most notably Shostak's appearance on one of the final episodes of "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood." You can do better.

Don't know why this is here as I never purchased this item.

4 out of 5 stars Glass Armonica CD/DVD Set by Dean Shostak .......2006-11-12

I was greatly privileged to hear Dean Shostak perform in his home town of Williamsburg, Virginia at the Kimball Theatre in 2004. I immediately bought two of his CDs and used "Revelations" in the teaching of my music appreciation/performance classes. This year I was very pleased to add the showing of Dean's DVD, since the classrooms are up-dating with DVD-player availability. Of the eight glass armonica players performing in the world today, Dean is the only one who performs with the original fly-wheel (the foot pedal which propels the armonica)as it was designed by its founder, Benjamin Franklin. I consider Dean THE expert on the armonica, and also have appreciated the web sites of Cecelia Brauer and William Zeitler.

5 out of 5 stars Amazing to hear Original Music.......2006-03-06

I was very confused by the 2 reviews which were very negative. I attended a concert by Dean, where I purchased this set. His love of the GLASS ARMONICA comes across in the music. WE have all heard the pieces, and now enjoy hearing how the composers intended them to sound on a glass armonica. The DVD has the making of the instrument, as well as his visit to MR.ROGER'S NEIGHBORHOOD. It is extremely well performed, and the selections are varied by the different composers.
You will not be disappointed with this set!

1 out of 5 stars Really bad!.......2006-01-27

Bad and amaturish renditions of some great music mostly due to the poor Armonica playing. I am a glass artist just learning about glass music. If this was the only recording I had gotten it would have been my last. However, I also got the Bruno Hoffmann CD "Music for Glass Harmonica" with much the same music on it. Very good. I will be much more ceareful what additional glass music I buy and will stay far away from Dean Shostak's work.
