The New York Recitals, Vol. 1
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Mordecai Shehori has won an enthusiastic following for his annual New York concerts, and it's easy to see why from this broadcast recording of a 1977 Metropolitan Museum of Art concert. The program reflects Shehori's strengths as a romantic pianist--he's a virtuoso who does justice to the stormy passages in each work but really shines in the contemplative, poetic ones. Shehori's Brahms sonata is full of youthful abandon, and throughout the entire program he plays with emotional largess. The Chopin works are especially congenial, and he masters the Ravel's fearsome technical demands while preserving the narrative sense of the piece. Recorded competition in all of these works is keen, but Shehori offers top-level playing with the added attraction of the spontaneity and risk-taking of a live concert. --Dan Davis

Terrific vocal talents for Copland's music.......2002-08-08
This second Copland collection focuses on unique talents of veteran performers.
William Warfield lends his voice and his interpretations of Copland's Old American Songs, and he sings them as they were meant to be, not as classical diletantes felt they should be. You have authenticity here.
Martha Lipton likewise contributes an older world charm and charisma to Copland's settings for Emily Dickenson's words.
Carl Sandberg's resonant reading of his own words is worth the full price of this set.
And then the inimitable Oscar Levant's piano treatment of the orchestral pieces...Levant had a wry touch to his interpretations that gave him a voice all his own.
There's much more here, quite a bit that's less than familiar and therefore increases one's familiarity with Copland.
finally sandburg's lincoln portrait.......2001-08-17
For all those like myself who have waited a decade for "A Lincoln Portrait" with Carl Sandburg's narration on CD, here it is finally! Sandburg's heartfelt reading of Lincoln's words is easily the most inspired and inspiring of the legions of others whose voices have been recorded. The orchestration by Kostelanetz also vastly surpasses others. Compare Henry Fonda's reading for example to see a poorly mixed tape where the narrator's voice is overwhelmed by the orchestra.
Wow! Pretty Good Deal.......2001-03-13
I was surprised to find two CDs of such quality being sold for the price of one. It also contained many hard to find Copland works.
Vitebsk is exciting. Strings do much of the work here. The music is very unique to any other Copland works. Definitely here a sample of this.
The Sextet is very interesting. The combination of strings and piano is a prefect balance along with the clarinet doing much of the harmony. It is the same song though as Copland's 2nd symphony, the 'short' one.
Duo for Flute and Piano is fun and happy. The 1st movement fluctuates quite a bit in the feeling but is a very nice combination. The second movement is slightly morbid but the feeling of happy hi ho is not lost. The 3rd movement is light and bouncy and can be described as typical Copland.
Lincoln Portrait is powerful. Though I don't see how it fits on this CD has a rarity or a chamber work. It is the besy Lincoln P. I've ever heard though.
Old American Songs and Poems of Emily Dickinson are not that good though. It's a vocalist and a piano accompanyingthe vocalist. The vocalists are not that good and I felt needed to feel the music a little more. Thomas Hampson and Dawn Upshaw made a CD with these songs which is much better (the only problem is that that CD only has 8 of the 12 Emily Dickinson Songs).
Billy the Kid was a nice way to finish off. It's just a few excerpts played on solo piano. It was interesting hearing the piece performed this way.
The recording quality is okay sometimes and kinda slipping other times. Then again, these are classic recordings for the most part. The skill though of the orchestra and soloists for the most part is that of a high quality. I definitely recommend this CD to any Copland fans out there trying to discover more about Copland. It's a very nicely put together CD and price worthy too.

Album Description
David Rakowski's growing catalog of Études for piano has inspired performances and recordings by leading pianists on both sides of the Atlantic. Volume One of Amy Dissanayake's Rakowski Études series (BRIDGE 9121) drew raves for both Rakowski's quirky and witty music and Dissanayake's bold virtuoso pianism.

Classic Concerto Collections.......2003-06-18
Both Volumes "The Early Concerto Recordings" from the Isaac Stern Collection are absolutely brilliant. If these recordings were released today by Sony there would be two concertos per disc, they would come in some lavish original jacket packaging, and cost a small fortune. As is (they were released by CBS in 1990), they are packaged as two three-CD sets at a mid-line price. Granted the product is without a lot of bells and whistles, though Stern's anecdotes in the liner notes about the recordings are insightful and enjoyable, but who needs added fluff when the music is this good.
The concertos, recorded in the mid-to-late 1940s and early-to-mid 1950s, are either in high quality mono or early golden age stereo. On Volume Two the recording dates are as follows: Lalo 1956, Bruch 1956, Saraste 1946, Sibelius 1951, Bernstein 1956, Saint-Saens 1957, Prokofiev No. 1 1958, Prokofiev No. 2 1957, and Wienawski 1946. (Please note that a few of these very same performances appear in the "Isaac Stern-A Life in Music" series.) Though Stern later re-recorded many of these concertos, it is delightful to hear these earlier versions when he was still establishing himself as one of the world's great violinists. Those looking for a definitive disc of a given concerto may want to start with titles in his "A Life in Music" series, but for Stern-lovers out there (like me), these discs are pure gold.

Customer Reviews:
Erica Morini at its best.......2001-04-26
Die legendäre Geigerin Erica Morini ist hier in Aufnahmen aus ihrer Glanzzeit zu hören. Insbesondere die Lifewiedergabe des Violinkonzertes von Tschaikowski ist spektakulär:Strawinski äußerte selbst, durch die Vermittlung Morinis sei er 1940 vom Gegner Tschaikowski zum Bewunderer geworden Selbst wenn uns manches an Morinis Spiel heute altertümlich anmutet, spiegelt sich dennoch ausgeprägte Indivdiualität gekoppelt mit Temperament und weiblicher Zartheit darin.Auch die zugegebenen kleinen Stücke sind absolut durchgestaltet, insbesondere am Menuett Mozarts fasziniert die Variabilität der Bogenführung. Für Liebhaber des Violinspiels ein absolutes Muss!

Simon Barere (1896-1951) is the great pianist to whom critics most condescend. Harold Schonberg's evaluation in his The Great Pianists is typical: "Barere was not one of the remarkable musical minds, but a playing mechanism startling for speed, accuracy, and disregard of difficulties." The release of the first volume in a series devoted to Barere's live recordings at Carnegie Hall in the 1940s makes it clear, however, that Barere was more than merely a great virtuoso. This CD makes available for the first time the pianist's performances of Beethoven's Sonata No. 31 and Chopin's Ballade in F Minor--repertory that can scarcely be called superficial. His approach to the late Beethoven sonata is essentially Romantic. But his extremely flexible tempos pay strict attention to line and to the shaping of phrases, thus investing the performance with a naturalness of pulse and expression that keeps it from sounding old-fashioned. Barere's F Minor Ballade belongs among the greatest. (Unfortunately, the first 14 bars are missing.) His remarkable technique allows him to reach tremendous climaxes achieved elsewhere only by the likes of Hofmann and Horowitz. But Barere's emotional commitment to the music is such that his effects never seem mere outbursts of temperament (as Hofmann's do) or merely calculated (as with Horowitz). The other works on this disc, whether Bach's "Chromatic Fantasy and Fugue" or Liszt's "Gnomenreigen," also receive persuasively dazzling readings. --Stephen Wigler

Mordecai Shehori has won an enthusiastic following for his annual New York concerts, and it's easy to see why from this broadcast recording of a 1977 Metropolitan Museum of Art concert. The program reflects Shehori's strengths as a romantic pianist--he's a virtuoso who does justice to the stormy passages in each work but really shines in the contemplative, poetic ones. Shehori's Brahms sonata is full of youthful abandon, and throughout the entire program he plays with emotional largess. The Chopin works are especially congenial, and he masters the Ravel's fearsome technical demands while preserving the narrative sense of the piece. Recorded competition in all of these works is keen, but Shehori offers top-level playing with the added attraction of the spontaneity and risk-taking of a live concert. --Dan Davis
