Instruments of the Orchestra - Great Reference Material!.......2007-04-04

This set lends itself to greatly enhancing one's knowledge of the orchestra, instruments in it, and their usage. I am a huge music buff, and I still picked up a great deal I previously did not know. I highly recommend this for all who wish to understand the origin of music, as well as the processes that are employed to create music!

Beginner or Expert.......2007-03-12

This CD is excellent for the beginner or expert! To be able to haear the instrumets separately and then together really provides a good education. and/or refresher. The book thaty comes with the CD is alomost worth the price by itself!

Very Informative and Enjoyable.......2006-11-20

Whether you're a music novice or pro, "The instruments of the Orchestra" is a very worthwhile purchase. The 7 CDs, with a total of 8 hours, are expertly narrated by Jeremy Siepmann. He's a great speaker, very much like the late Leonard Bernstein was. Mr. Siepmann takes you on an unforgetable musical journey covering the origins and use of the various orchestral instruments throughout musical history. The balance between his narration and a wealth of musical examples, which range from snippets to entire movements, is superb. The comprehensive enclosed booklet is excellent and faithfully follows the 7 CDs in content. Even with my 40+ years of music training I still learned new things from this wonderful collection. Considering the excellence of the content, and a cost that translates to about $5 per disc, this collection is a great value. Grab it, you won't regret that you did. Five solid stars!

Frank's view.......2006-08-19

This boxed set of CD's with booklet achieved all I had hoped that it would. There are good samples of individual instruments and well done commentary on each. The only drawback was that some of the samples were too brief and could have been longer, hoiwever I guess this fits in with time constraints of the medium. It has given me a lot of clues as to future purchases of CD's for listening to individual instruments. Altogeth a satisfactory purchase and a welcome addition to my collection.

Excellent Intro for Those Not Familiar with the Orchestra.......2003-11-08

I've listened to classical music for years and am interested in composition. I bought this CD set to learn how an orchestra and its instruments work. I thought the CDs would be a nice but boring lecture. They aren't! Not only are they FUN but they are informative as well. I learned a huge amount from each CD and couldn't wait to listen to the next one.

The narrator and writer is a great speaker and holds your attention well. He is definitely knowledgeable. He provides musical examples for each point he makes, so you get to "hear" what he just talked about. I'd say the CDs are about 65% music and 35% narration. You'll learn about the range of instruments, some history, different ways to play them, how they sound, and how they are used in the orchestra. This CD set was a great learning experience and is sold at such a low price!

I recommend this CD for those who want to learn about classical music and those who know about it but are interested in learning more about the inner workings of an orchestra. You'll learn much useful information. For instance, the Rite of Spring (with that eerie start) is written for bassoon! I never knew a bassoon could sound like that but now I do.

The one complaint I have is the last CD. This deals with the orchestra. I wanted more of a tour of how the orchestra has been used through history up to the present. Instead, it was a tour of how different groups of instruments sound. I thought it could have been better. The other 6 CDs are excellent.

Horowitz Shines in Uncharacteristic Repertoire........2003-03-08

Volume Five of Sony's Vladimir Horowitz reissue cobbles together the pianist's live and studio recordings of music from the Baroque and Classical era.

From about 1950 on, Muzio Clementi's music was often featured on Horowitz's programs. Despite his advocacy, the pianist was unable to spark a Clementi-revival, as he did with Scarlatti and Scriabin. Yet, in Horowitz's hands, Clementi's music emerges as convincing and compelling. Horowitz plays the isolated sonata movements with characteristic clarity, technical control, and deft phrasing--hinting and Clementi's pre-echo of romanticism while honoring the era's Classical framework.

When playing Bach, Horowitz generally relied on Ferruccio Busoni's inimitable transcriptions. Horowitz greatly admired--even worshiped--Busoni and considered his arrangements the ideal transference of Bach's music to the modern piano. This Chorale Prelude, recorded for a GoodYear Tire promotional album in 1969, is played with appropriate reverence. The performance demonstrates that Horowitz's ability to suspend one line above another, his control of part writing is every bit as astonishing as Glenn Gould's, and his tone is a lot more pleasing.

The hallmarks of Horowitz's Scarlatti can be heard in the two Sonatas heard here: perfect transference of Scarlatti's sound world onto the modern piano; infinite grades of detachment and color; careful use of the sustaining pedal; flawless judgment of dynamics--from soft-softer-softest on the lower end, yet never pushing the piano too far into the forte range.

Horowitz always seemed at home with Haydn's diverse pianistic textures and musical humor. The pianist plays the opening movement of the C-major Sonata at a much broader tempo than usual, phrasing it as if it were an opera aria. The second movement, one of Haydn's wittiest rondos, runs at a brisk tempo, with the sudden key-shifts and off-beat accents handled with Horowitz's usual aplomb.

Horowitz was not congenial to late Beethoven, and felt that the piano works after Op. 81a were not meant for public performance--certainly not for today's mammoth concert halls. The pianist made an exception to his ban on Beethoven's late piano music for the Sonata in A major, Op. 101, performing it occasionally: in the 1930s, in 1967, 1980, and during his disastrous 1983 tour. In 1988, the intrepid Thomas Frost found several performances from 1967 recitals, spliced them together, and nervously presented the final product to Horowitz for approval. Much to Frost's surprise, Horowitz consented to release the Beethoven, along with several shorter works. This is pianistically one of the finest Op. 101s ever committed to disc (but his concert performances from 1980 were even more polished). For once, Beethoven's murky late piano writing is clear. The first movement sounds almost Wagnerian in its pathos. The dotted rhythms in the march are Schumannesque, the accents nearly brutal--no other performance on this work so clearly demonstrates Beethoven's influence on Schumann. The fugue is played with unprecedented clarity, despite a few quite inconsequential wrong notes--no pianist gets through this fugue unscathed.

The sound varies, given the diverse recording locales, but remains acceptable.

Delightful "Recital".......2000-11-22

Volume Five of Vladimir Horowitz's "Complete Masterworks Recordings" is a delightful collection of baroque and classical gems. But don't let the title fool you, this is not a single concert recital but instead an assortment of studio and live recordings ranging from 1963 through 1972. The other thing to be aware of with this disc is a majority of this material is also included on "Discovered Treasures" -- don't get both as I did. Anyway, back to the title at hand. The Clememti Sonatas are morsels of ear candy while the Bach-Busoni is achingly beautiful (and definitely superior to Evgeny Kissin's recording). Two more Scarlatti Sonatas (K319 & K260) are played with the passion that only Horowitz can bring to this composer's works, and then he goes on to perfectly capture the delicate grace of the first movement of Haydn's C-major Sonata and the forcefulness of its second movement. The final selection on this CD is a 1967 live recording of Beethoven's 28th Piano Sonata. While Horowitz recorded Beethoven Sonatas from the early and middle periods throughout his career, this is one of the few recordings he made of a late Sonata. Unfortunately, the solemn first movement is marred by numerous coughs from the Queens College audience, but Horowitz's playing is so masterful that you quickly forget about it (although I would not make this your definitive version -- check out Pollini's recording as well). Overall, "A Baroque and Classical Rectal" is as enjoyable a volume as any of the nine Horowitz "Masterworks" titles.

As Natural as Naturalness Could be.......2003-02-11

If one is looking for the Glenn Gould or Tureck kind of touch, or the frenetic approach of Richter, one might find Horszowski sloppy. Perhaps one should pay more attention to the spiritual essense of Bach and in particular that very piece, trying to see if there is any justification for such an interpretation before passing judgment to say it is slow or whatever. If one prefers Richter or whoever, fine. But no harm having more varieties.

Superb. Even BACH willl approve this........1999-03-02

This is one of the greatest performances. "Horszowski Plays Bach Like he is Composing It" Says Murray Perahia a Prodigy himself. This CD is a must for serious BACH listeners. The recording is full and sonorous. Excellent item to rave about.

Introspective Piano, Take Two.......2000-02-08

I'm really glad to see (and hear) this CD, which is a follow-up to a collection that was so nicely programmed that I used to play it almost every evening for a few weeks. Now I have another CD as an after-dinner favorite. I knew the Brahms Intermezzos and Beethoven's Bagatelles, but many of the other pieces were new to me. All of the performances sparkle, and recorded sound is great.
