At less than $30, this has to be one of the greatest bargains currently out there. For many lovers of Chopin and piano playing, Rubinstein's late 1950s/early 1960s RCA survey is the Bible. Undoubtedly, it contains some godly Chopin playing. However, there is too much unevenness and lack of drama for this cycle to live up to its reference status.

Indeed, this is a Chopin Collection and not a complete survey, missing the Etudes, Rondos, Variations, early Polonaises, First Sonata, concert fantasies, chamber music as well as some miscellaneous pieces--most notably the Op post Nocturnes, Mazurkas, Waltzes and Prelude, plus the Op 45 Prelude and Allegro de concert. In contrast to the Ashkenazy set, this collection includes the two Concertos.

Particularly Rubinstein's Waltzes, ... Read More

I hadn't heard this Carpenter CD, yet. Tonight Jim Svejda (KUSC FM, L.A.) played three selections, the Chopin, Ellington and Carmen. I was on the way home from Thanksgiving dinner, and I really had to concentrate on the traffic while this outrageous, inventive, screamingly virtuosic avalanche came at me in the car. The Chopin was not just showoff, it was a conception of marvelous invention. Rather than being dazzled by the obvious pedal work, I was taken most by the coloristic slicing and dicing going on in the manuals; just scintillating.
Carpenter has a genuine feel for the laid back, off the beat playing that the Ellington demands. This wasn't ersatz jazz knock-off; this guy was in the moment completely. The Carmen fantasy was a funhouse of playful, and near impossible registration ... Read More

This is a masterful performance by the great Vladimir Ashkenazy of Chopin's favourite piano works. If you love Chopin's music and Ashkenazy's magic touch, this 2-disc CD is a must. Apart from all the all-time favourites such as grande valse brillante, op 18, nocturne in E flat major, op 9 no 2, Minute, Black Key, Military, Raindrop, Tristesse etc etc, it's interesting to note Ashkenazy's interpretation of Ballade in G minor, op 23 vis-a-vis Janusz Olejniczak playing it in the poignant scene of the award-winning Polanski's film "The Pianist" ie the piece played by Adrien Brody in his role as Szpilman, the Jewish pianist in hiding, to the German officer Hosenfeld. Enjoy!!

Another great, funny CD. I have all 4 of this series and this is another great one. A must for all families looking to teach their children about classical music in a fun way. Also, a great rendition of Pomp and Circumstances that our recent college graduate son thoroughly related to and enjoyed!

In the year 2000 this Amsterdam based reed quintet celebrated its 15th anniversary with this program of compositions spanning 600 years, from Ockeghem to Ter Doest and Koolmees.

They answer the question put in the first piece (Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker) of can a reed quintet replace an entire symphony admirably well. Due to the original score omitting the basses and cellos, they fill in well with the bass clarinet.

Moving playing of Duke Ellington's "Jump for joy" along with some delicately played chamber music of England's William Byrd. Many of the rest were new to me, but enjoyed very much their profound work on Ockeghem's Intmerata Dei Mater, with a most delightful sounding basset horn dominating. Ockeghem's Mort, tu as navre is excellently performed as well.

If you a piano student, your teacher will probably assign you at least half of the compositions in this CD. You need to hear how they should be played. This is a wonderful CD to use to help you learn the pieces. These piano selections are not the "World's Favorites" for nothing - they are memorable and enjoyable for young and old alike. I love this CD.

I recently sent this cd to my grandaughter for her daughter who is 7 months old and cranky in the car. Grandaughter tells me the baby is quiet listening to music which makes her life easier!
