Bernstein Tribute
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Broadway, jazz, ragtime, classical, sacred--Leonard Bernstein incorporated so many elements in his work that there comes a point at which genre is irrelevant. Proteus 7, comprising two trumpets, tuba, percussion, woodwind, and a pair of trombones, has a most appropriate name for an ensemble paying tribute to this genius. The seven jazz musicians perform their own arrangements, mostly by percussionist F. Feza Zweifel, alongside original compositions. Bernstein's Mass provoked controversy with brass bands and electric guitars, yet the excerpts here are both joyfully golden and reverential. Anthony DiLorenzo brings some blistering, exhilarating trumpet to the "Mambo" from West Side Story (his own composition Mostly Influential, a fantasy on Gershwin, Prokofiev, and Bernstein playing poker). Woodwind player Charles Pillow adds his own commentary with the Suite from West Side Story, three short movements that interpolate new material with the original score, especially the song "I Have a Love." The innovative, boundary-breaking spirit of Bernstein lives on in a set that should appeal to lovers of jazz and 20th-century classical music equally. Performances are tight, polished, and dynamic, and the recorded sound stupendous. --Gary S. Dalkin

It's not opera; it's not a pop concert; it's not Broadway. It's all of these and none of them. Once you accept the fact that this sequel to the original blockbuster concert recording is less about music and more about entertainment and the power of musical personalities, you can appreciate what you're hearing as an event--phenomenal and bizarre, momentous and frivolous. This is an occasion to celebrate the voices and egos of three huge superstars, and to have fun listening as Luciano Pavarotti, Placido Domingo, and Jose Carreras interact, bouncing lines off each other and playing to the overwhelmingly enthusiastic audience. Much of the fun and flavor of the concert is dependent on seeing the action, though, and without the visuals you notice flaws in the singing much more. Domingo comes off as the more solid performer, and his voice is in far better shape than the other two. But if you crave big, high, and loud--and you don't take your opera too seriously--you'll love this disc. --David Vernier
Customer Reviews:
Un gran concierto.......2005-07-19
Yo tenia el Cd de este concierto, pero sin duda el DVD presenta la realidad, lo sublime de este evento, porque ademas de ver las interpretaciones, trae varios puntos y canciones extras. Carreras creo que esta bien, saca la tarea. Placido Domingo en Amor vida de mi vida, logra llevar el concierto a su punto mas alto en ese momento, punto superado unicamente por Pavarotti en Nessum Dorma. Pavarotti como siempre sublime como dije en Nessum Dorma, Ave maria y en los popurris. La calidad del DVD es genial, con full screen y sonido digital. Otro punto buenisimo es la aparicion de Frank Sinatra en la cancion My way y de otras luminarias del cine y la política. Espero que este comentario sirva de ayuda para aquellos que quieran este DVD.
Give em a 3.5.......2004-01-25
The Three Tenors has/have become a cottage industry, churning out one CD after another for every imaginable event and in every combination. This does not mean that the results are necessarily inferior but it does imply a commercial, layman's approach. And maybe this is better - spreading the joys of fine music to the masses. After all, where besides figure skating and cartoons do most people have a chance to even hear opera?
This event, like the first one in Rome, has a magnificent setting but, like Rome, the show was marketed mainly to the American audience. They still include the dreadful "Maria" with the hilarious pronunciation and even added "With a Song In My Heart" (or, as Carreras is wont to sing, "Weeth a Soeeng een My Haht"). Though some may deride the choice of encores, they were almost perfect. The Three Tenors, despite their prior celebrity, are creations of our culture of entertainment in ways that Caruso could only dream about.
Synopsis: Carreras stands out, Domingo substitutes volume for quality and Pavarotti soars when he doesn't have to.
The Most Enjoyable Evening IN !!!!!!!!!!!.......2003-05-01
I am not a regular Opera fan, hoever these THREE are the Best. their songs they sing together are SUPER!!! And the range of NOTES REACHED ARE REMARKABLE. tHE MIXTURE of songs is a treat for all, even if you are not an OPERA FAN!!!! Great show!!!!!!
Hmmmm...........2002-04-21
Not what I thought it was going to be. I like only about 4 of the 20+ tracks on this CD. I shoudl have just bought the DVD instead and actually watched them perform. Much, much more entertaining.
Last Encore of songs missing off C.D........2002-02-06
The Three Tenors are my absolute favourite singers. The 1994 Concert was undoubtedly their best in my view. I taped this live concert from the television, and have played and played and played it!! I also taped it on a cassette, however, when I bought the C.D. I was really disappointed that they did not include the last set of encore songs, which included O Sole a Mio (don't know if I've spelt that correctly), where Placido and Jose try and outdo Luciano!! It received such a fantastic reception from the crowd, (one of the many standing ovations), and really showed how much the Three Tenors seemed to enjoy performing the concert. How come this was not included? I don't know if it was on the Video because I play my own.
Many thanks for your time,
With kind regards,
Pam Sargeant.

And God bless Ferrante and Teicher.......2002-03-19
As some of you know, I am a Ferrante and Teicher fan from way back. When I read their dedication on this disc, I was really impressed. I dont know which one is officially retired, but the fact that he came out of retirement to help put this disc together was great... and the disc is A-1! During the Bicentennial year(1976) I had a vinyl disc, Spirit of 176, which
much of the music from this disc is from. Some of the musical effects are quite interesting, and my mother really loves the disc. I am so pleased that they released it. A real keeper!

Customer Reviews:
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.
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.
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.

Customer Reviews:
A fitting 'Tribute'.......1999-11-10
This is a beautiful memorial to a great musician, containing some of his greatest, most inspired performances. The "Symphonic Dances" never sounded better, and his "Chichester Psalms" is as energetic as ever. Gershwin's "Rhapsody" is taken at a fine speed (even though they cut one section of the orchestral playing) and Bernstein's playing represents him extremely honorably as a performer. But he is best known as a conductor and particularly as a champion of Mahler and Ives, which makes the final two tracks the most touching. The Adagietto from Mahler 5 was the piece he owned; he conducted it at RFK's televised funeral (Solti led the CSO in it at the concert immediately proceeding LB's death) and it's quite fitting that his first recording of it with the NYPO is given hear. It's such a beautiful reading. And Ives' "Unanswered Question" was the great American piece Bernstein adopted, even conducting it on his tour of the Soviet Union in 1959. A haunting piece to close out the disc with, but a very appropriate one no less.

Customer Reviews:
An almost legendary pairing........2006-11-28
How wonderful of DGG to reissue these performances, documented nicely as to what LPs they came from. The singing is astonishing. How many sopranos could range from Oscar (in Ein Maskenball) to Marie in Wozzeck. But Evelyn Lear does so, with some incredibly lovely Lieder singing in between. Morike Lieder are not so often performed as to make this a duplication in many CD catalogues. Stewart's Wotan's Abschied is beautifully felt, with the Berlin Philharmonic in its glory behind him. It cuts off, however, just before the start of the fire music, so we don't get Wotan's last line. Still the level of singing here is outstanding. The duet album offered from another label - Don Giovanni, Aida, etc. - is less impressive because Ms. Lear is forced to singing more heavily (and less pristinely) than usual. Now if only Sony-BMG would reissue the incredible Ives LP on CD again. It was honest, straightforward singing, with no pretension except in one or two "precious" songs. Rather than overkill with too many excerpts, these cover the highlights of two sensational careers. Buyer need not beware. This is world-class singing.
Two great American singers who conquered Europe.......2006-09-27
Now somewhat forgotten except by those with long memories, Evelyn Lear and husband Thomas Stewart achieved greater success in Europe than any other Americans of their generation except Leontyne Price. Stewart was Karajan's Wotan in his recorded Walkure from 1967, and also in Siegfried, while about the same time Lear was Karl bohm's Pamina in Zauberflote. It was unheard of for two Americans to be signed up on the yellow label for DG, but here we have just a sample of their recordings--just in time to commemorate Stewart's recent death at 78.
For me, he's the real star here. His Flying Dutchman soliloquy 'Die frist ist um' is riveting--a good place to start if you don't know how intense and foxused an artist he was (for a while he held the record for repeat appearances at Bayreuth, I believe). The high point for Lear as a solo artist is probably the long stretch devoted to Strauss and Wolf lieder, where her warm, musical style is most evident. Orchestrated lieder by Wolf are a rare commidity, and Stewart performs a batch with incredible intensity. These discs range over a huge range of songs, duets, arias, and scenes, however--too many to summarize.
As for their duet recitals, we get only 3 Stephen Foster songs from an LP that made quite an impression in the Sixties--all beautifuly sung, without a trace of operatic crossover pretension. In that vein we get Dvorak's Moravian duets and ohters from Brahms and Schumann. Devoted as they were to each other, I think Stewart does best on his own, so my recommendation centers chiefly on him.
