174.Baby Needs Beethoven from: Delos Records

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Classical Music : Baby Needs Beethoven
This is lovely, soothing music suitable for babies or tired adults! I began listening to it and other "Baby Needs" CD's (the Guitar compilation is wonderful too) before my daughter was born, and have continued to play it for her ever since. Even Classical music purists shouldn't object to hearing just portions of major works-- the compensation is having a complete collection of calm, peaceful music. Highly recommended.

These discs were recommended in the New NPR Encyclopedia. Unfortunately I had just listed to all of the Naxos Berwald chamber music which I reviewed and found to be some of the best Cds released by Naxos. With that in mind I could never recommend listening to anything on these disc with the exception of the quartet for piano and wind and the septet which are the only things not covered in Naxos and which are anemic in comparison. The Grand Septet is scored for the some forces as Beethoven's, strings,,clarinet, horn, bassoon. and may be one of Berwald's most beautiful chamber pieces with a song like first section and a haunting, extended slow section.

So whether or not you but this set should depend on your wanting to own the septet.

179.Erzherzog Rudolph & Mirolslav Weber Septets from: Orfeo
April 20, 1994
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Classical Music : Erzherzog Rudolph & Mirolslav Weber Septets
First, let's take care of some business. The e minor Septett on this cd is purported to be composed by Archduke Rudolph of Austria. This, however, is not the case for a number of reasons, the most compelling of which is the fact that Rudolph died in 1831 while the manuscript of the Septett is dated 1850. The work must still be considered "Anonymous".

Authourship aside, the music is a delight. It is a 5-movement work whose structure shows obvious influences from Beethoven's prototypical Septet, op.20. It is string dominated, the wind instruments displaying little in the way of pyrotechnics, but the balance between winds and strings is exceptionally good.

The Septett by Joseph Miroslav Weber is a later programmatic piece. Each movement is evocative of scenes ... Read More
