Customer Reviews:

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.

Leonard Bernstein's New York is a cornucopia of tongue-in-cheek wit, unabashed romanticism, big-city loneliness, and intellectual irony. His well-known orchestral brilliance is beautifully represented under the stellar conducting of Eric Stern, but his underappreciated talents as a songwriter are what shine, elevating this recording to magic. The cast of American theater's best includes Mandy Patinkin wonderfully indulging his comic side; Judy Blazer and Donna Murphy, the shiniest lights on Broadway, demonstrating their extensive range as singing actresses; Audra McDonald making the difficult sound easy; and Richard Muenz and Dawn Upshaw singing elegantly. Most unforgettably pleasing are the trios "Ya Got Me" and "What A Waste." A great tribute to Bernstein's theater works. --Barbara Eisner Bayer

Customer Reviews:

Disappointing.......2007-03-13

I agree that this is a great collection. But I have to wonder: Am I the only one who got a bum copy of the CD? The songs are all mixed up on my copy, as in, most of the tracks are mislabeled: "A Quiet Girl" is really "Tonight", The Balcony Scene, printed as "Tonight" is really "Somewhere". The list goes on.

So, who do I kvetch to? I'd like a copy that isn't a complete mishmash.

The Feel of New York.......2007-01-09

Having spent most of my working years in NYC, I felt this CD brought the city to me. Bernstein has allways been a favorite.

The next stop once you've heard the originals.......2007-01-09

As a tribute to Bernstein on Broadway, this CD is hard to beat. All the singers are stars but of a generation, ro two, beyond the originals. Naturally here's been a change of style, and these renditions are more knowing, sophisticated, and at times ironic than the originals. On their own, Donna Murphy, Dawn Upshaw, and Mandy Patinkin, among others, are masters of their craft, but I hope anyone who loves LB will also seek out the original cast albums for all of his musicals, or the clesest one can get (On the Town was remade in the Fifties). Those recordings cast a unique spel, but the next stop is this marvelous CD.

Bernstein's New York, it's a wonderful town!.......2002-01-15

And speaking of "Wonderful Town," it's so nice to hear music from this least appreciated of Bernstein's musicals. "What a Waste," "A Quiet Girl" and Audra McDonald's enchanting "A Little Bit in Love" have never sounded better. Donna Murphy burns the house down with the torchy "Ain't Got No Tears Left," and has fun with Patinkin and Blazer on the raucous "Ya Got Me." "One Hand, One Heart" sung by Dawn Upshaw and Richard Muenz is movingly rendered, as is Patinkin's wonderful delivery of an all-time Bernstein favorite, "Some Other Time." My only comlaint? Where is "I Can Cook Too?" A terrific recording.

Great CD BUT..........2000-07-02

I loved this CD, but there was some things that kept it fromgetting four stars. First Mandy Patkin, I loved him in Sunday in The Park With George, also I have a CD of him singing yiddish songs all good, but in this CD I just don't like him. Like in the song "Come Up To My Place" I didn't like his voice and I never could quite see him as the character for that song. Also I would have liked to see (well actually "hear") some more of the dance numbers or overtures, I realize the main point of the CD was all the singers they put together, but the real highlight of the CD for me was the sections from Fancy Free, and Ballet At The Village Vortex from Wonderful Town. Also I liked "One Hand One Heart" a lot. Overall I would get this CD if you like Bernstein or any of these musicals, it is good listen, just not outstanding.

love this mix cd.......2007-04-11

i received this cd as a gift after purchasing the fischerspooner cds...if you know "the other side" you realize these are mix cd's compiled by the featured band. It's not all about electronica - it's about giving you a feeling/taste of music from that city. i love this cd. i've discovered new music to listen to as well as recognizing some music i had heard previously. if you're looking for new music - and you don't live in the electronica box this is a great cd.

What is this garbage?.......2006-07-11

This is the worst purchase I've made in quite some time.

After being blown away by Junkie XL's remix of Fischerspooner's Emerge, I felt the need to buy an album by Fischerspooner. I made a mistake. Apparently, I mistook Fischerspooner's talents for Junkie XL's talents.

This is some of the lousiest electronica I've heard.

The first song is the beginning of the trashfest. The second song, which isn't good either, is one of the somewhat tolerable tracks on the album, mostly due to a humorous hook. A lot of this sounds like alternative/punk rock/electronica.

This album has me completely confused. Is this techno? Is Coochie Coo something that Princess Superstar really expects me to be caught by? Some songs on this album are close to not being music. Every once in awhile a catchy melody or element will surface, but it is always overshadowed by something else that is annoying.

What about the mixing? What mixing??? I could have worked up the transitions on this album at the age of 14. The mixing here is utterly disappointing, which makes the album utterly disappointing. How can a DJ/artist produce an album on which only one song is his, then mix the album like an amateur?

Aside from Hacker's mediocre remix of Fischerspooner's Emerge and a few interesting moments on other tracks (Buffalo Bill... YEEHAA), there is nothing on this album worth your time. If you muster the courage to make it through all of the painful O Superman by Laurie Anderson, you will understand why this album is worth 2 stars at the most.

And the DVD? Man. The music mixed on the DVD is better than the music on the album! Don't worry... that doesn't mean it's good. It's just a bunch of footage of shops, clubs, and events around New York City. Regardless of how cool some of the featured places on the DVD are, the DVD is as pointless as the CD. Besides, it's very short, and by the time you get into it, it ends abruptly!

I want to give this 1 star, but because there are some songs here that might be worth listening to every once in awhile, like after you've exhausted all other good music in existence, I will give it two stars.

Regardless, DO NOT under any circumstances purchase this album unless it is an absolute bargain. This is pathetic.

Best to view this as a mix CD and skip the guide porion.......2005-12-23

The idea behind this CD/DVD dualdisc is that an artist (or pair in this case) would offer a guide to the best of the "bleeding edge" of their city, along with a great mix of tracks. Put out by Time Out magazine (a fixture here in NYC, and elsewhere I presume), I had envisioned this as some sort of edgier Lonely Planet-meets-Back to mine, with a DVD tour to the city in question by the artist. What it turned out to be as a little more disappointing.

You get a twoisided "dualdisc", with a mix CD on one side, and a DVD on the other, as well as an foldout insert that includes a partial map of Manhattan below 59th, parts of Queens (enough to point out PS1), and an equally small part of Brooklyn (mostly Williamsburg, if you couldn't guess) and their attendant subways. On the reverse side from the map is a Time Out style listing of bars, clubs, restaurants, galleries, hotels, shoppping, and "illicit" establishments (including the much-derided Museum of Sex). There are also a handful of picks from Fischer and Spooner listed seperately. The places reviewed are listed (by color and number) on the subway map, and it seems like it would be easy to navigate once you understand the subway system. Also, bear in mind that all of these reviews and trends will be outdated in a couple of months - Time Out NY comes out every week for a reason.

Next up the DVD. This includes many of the same listings as the insert, as well as several videos, which are nice (and a way to justify a DVD I guess). but basically useless for review purposes. Some places in the videos (like Junior's or teany) aren't listed in the insert or on the map. The whole DVD seemed a bit poorly executed, to be honest, and rather disappointing.

Taken together the review bits are nice, and I plan to check some things listed in them out, but I'm not sure that I couldn't have found all this out just by buying the latest copy of Time Out New York or one of its competitors.

Lastly, the music. If you've been wanting Fischerspooner's own Softcore Jukebox, this is it. I would have thought it would be cooler if it had more New York based musicians, but whatever. Overall, I liked it, and would probably have liked it more if I didn't already own some of the tracks on it. No faults here.

I'm always looking for new things to do and see, so I thought that a compilation CD mixed in with a DVD guide to Fischer and Spooners' New York would be very cool. What ended up happening is that the artists (apparently) had very little input into the small guide/review section. This was a cool idea, but Time Out or whomever just didn't take it very far. Buy it if you want the music, but most people could probably have guessed that anyway.

A great "first step" to the magic of "The Great White Way".......2006-11-26

With the Thanksgiving passing of songwriter Betty Comden, I recalled that I had, in my album collection, this album, not just featuring her songs but Comden singing on "Carried Away" and "Some Other Time" from the Tony-award-winning "New York." Two other songs from the play are featured, culled from a 1960 recording.

This compilation has some of the best of Broadway, not just the songs but the performers as well. Familiar names like Boris Karloff, the legendary Rosalind Russell, Nancy Walker, Chita Rivera, and Carol Lawrence are showcased in various selections from the likes of "Peter Pan," "Trouble in Tahiti," "Wonderful Town," "Candide," "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue," and, in this writer's opinion, the best musical in the history of the stage, "West Side Story."

The liner notes provide brief but insightful descriptions of the various plays, including an introduction from Comden and her longtime collaborator Adolph Green, also heard on the album.

The music is definitely Bernstein with his uniquely American style, coupled with Old World influences.

Why 'The essential Bernstein' is not conducted by Lenny?.......2000-07-25

The pieces of music selected for this recording are indeed a selection of the 'Essential Bernstein'. The 60's "Candide Overture" is the best version recorded by Bernstein. But the "West side Story" is conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas (a good conductor, but there are several Bernstein-conducted recordings of the West Side Story score and symphonic dances). The same thing happens with some other pieces. If Leonard Bernstein recorded all of his compositions, I suppose the 'essential Bernstein' should have Bernstein conducted by Bernstein recordings.
