2.Songs to Poems by Heinrich Heine from: Deutsche Harm Mundi September 19, 1994
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $23.98 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $16.52
Before listening to this CD I only knew Pregardien from his performances in the passions and cantates by Bach. He is one of the most expressive evangelists. Here he proves to be also one of the best Lied singers. This is one of the most beautiful performances of Schumann's Dichterliebe and Lieder by Schubert and Mendelsohn. The program is linked by the fact that these are settings of poems by Heinrich Heine. The poems are all about unanswered love, but are characterized by a mood of hurt sarcacasm, which makes them stand out from other love poems of that age. It is interesting to hear the differences in the treatments of the text by the different composers. Most Schumann settings end with a sense of continued longing, ... Read More

3.Perfect Playlist Trance, Vol. 1 by: Various Artists May 03, 2005
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $11.98 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $3.65
Let me just preface that I dont think this trance compilation is bad, I just wouldnt say it was all that great either. it does have a few half decent upliftng vocal trance songs on it. Most of the songs sound very commercial and almost cookie cutter like. For someone who is just getting into trance, this is definitely a nice pick up. I guess ive become spoiled because im used to listening to good progressive stuff. The vocals arent that bad either if you're into vocal trance.

4.Coventina's Well - Traditional Celtic Music by: Various Artists July 01, 2003
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
This is a delightfully varied collection of pieces, from lovely ballads to lively numbers that get your feet moving. Even the teenagers in my household enjoy this CD (you know how hard it can be to find music that both parents and kids want to hear). "Coventina's Well" has gotten a lot of playing time in my home. I'm hoping to see more releases of music with this range and appeal.

5.Winter, Snow and Strings from: Dharmapala Records September 01, 2004
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $15.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $3.43
You will recognize the melodies, but not right away. They will come to you like a sunrise, like some distant, longed for memory or like a dream coming back to you. For some, the music may simply be a brief, relaxing respite. But I found them too evocative to be anything but heart pinching. The arrangements are masterful: understated and eloquent; sophisticated in their simplicity, but more gut wrenching, soulful, and heartfelt (without trying) than any music I've heard this side of Mozart.

I wanted to ask what this person is trying to pull. I received a copy of the original, not the actual. Sorry, guys, but if you are not going to send the real CD, why bother?

8.From the Original Master Tapes (Greatest Hits) by: The Association March 19, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price: $17.19
If you value the unique, harmonious, "Folk-Rock" sound that made the Association one of the best groups of their era, this album should be part of your collection. Their greatest hits are all here, along with many of the others that, while not hits in their own right, made listening to their albums a pleasure. The #1 pop song of 1966, "Cherish", is here, along with their debut hit, "Along Comes Mary". 1967 hits "Windy" and "Never My Love" are here too, along with "Goodbye Columbus", an upbeat movie title song from a largely-forgotten "The Graduate" clone, starring the dynamic Richard Benjamin. There are several beautiful tunes that never made it to the charts, including "Birthday Morning", "Rose Petals, Incense and a Kitten", and "No Fair At All". Other great songs of note include "One Too ... Read More

This is the real thing, folk music the way it is and has been played for generations. These artists are skilled musicians and it really shows on this collection. Don't miss out on this opportunity to own what might be the finest collection of traditional Kentucky standards ever published.

10.Handel: Oratorio Arias from: EMI Classics September 17, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $16.98 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $5.00
DAZZLING, DYNAMIC, DRAMATIC DANIELS!!!!!!!!!! This recording in my opinion displays more than any other the versatility of David Daniel's perfomances. He shifts easily from character to character in these oratorios, his voice always making the necessary adjustments to do so. His tone quality is even throughout his range and his diction is always clear and precise, even at breakneck speeds as in the aria from 'Belshazzar'. Handel's oratorio style was the product of many mingled elements. Germany, Italy and England all had a hand in its formation. But the work that Handel did in the development of the oratorio alone gives him the right to rank among the greatest of those to whom we owe the modern forms of music. David Daniels to my mind has chosen six of the greatest of ... Read More
