Customer Reviews:

Early, youthful Rostropovich, who is 80 this year........2007-07-14

First the most important stuff: sound quality through out is very good to excellent.

These two CD's are two Westminster vinyl albums, one from 1953 and the other from 1954, with a short Paganini with no known recording history thrown in to extend these two CD's, which are "short in time" for CD's. The first CD runs under 45 minutes, but the double CD set is priced accordingly and is a bargain.
Several of the album cuts were never released on a CD before this set, which celebrates Rostopovich's 80th birthday, Of course they are all mono recordings. While listening to the music you will never miss the stereo, as the high sound quality through out permits Rostropovich to shine.
Westminster was the best vinyl source for anything Russian classical way back when, only to be, perhaps, out done by the recent Yedang CD's.
These performances show a young developing celloist, already a master of the cello...exubriant and at the same time..warm and moving ..quite suprising and most rewarding.
Mistislav is my favorite celloist. If he touches you, I recommend these early satisfying recordings.
5 stars for the recordings, 4 stars for the compilation.

Still a masterpiece of the Union.......2007-07-24

It is my 3rd purchase. First was an LP in mid 80s. Then purchased the CD in late 90s, and decided to buy it again because I lost it.

Frankly, it is not a pop album. You need a little bit more of average musical background, or more than enough listenings of variety music to appreciate and recognize this album.

Players' technique and its digestion in relation to 9 different pieces are just amazing. Truely a masterpiece of combining both Jazz and Classical! Personally, this has been the best album of the kind I ever heard. Claud Bolling & Jean-Pierre Rampal combination requires far more elements to meet this high standard of this album. (sorry their music is also beautiful)

You will not regret this album although it was recorded in early 80s. That is what "Classical" is all about!

Jazz y Clasicos mezclados de muy buena forma.......2000-06-20

Este disco es exelente para la gente que gusta de la musica clasica en formas poco tradicionales, se puede escuchar todo tocado en un gran nivel sin variar demaciado las versiones originales. Este disco es un deleite para el oido.

Piano Portraits.......2006-01-30

This CD was a fabulous rendition of fantastic piano scores. I am so thankful that William Wellborn has carried on the Chopin tradition as well as other masters of the time. Wellborn's performance truly honors the masters and I am thankful that he continues to lead the charge in performing this wonderful classic music superbly. I enjoyed the entire CD and adoring Chopin so very much, would love the world to fully appreciate his music and this artist truly allows that. I think the stage is set for the future appreciation of this music for generations to come and would love to have Mr. Wellborn cut more CDs. Bravo! Bravo and thank you William!

Album Description

"THE 'UN' CD" (De-mystifying the Classics)

This is NOT your typical Classical CD! But Christopher Finkelmeyer is not your typical pianist. Performing Arts Organizations, audiences and U.S. & International critics have celebrated Finkelmeyer's audience-friendly presentations for reaching out to new listeners while never compromising the music. And that very passion for breaking down the barriers between audience and performer, in order to let the music shine through, has now been captured on this new release of solo Classical piano music ~ "Passionately UnStuffed".

Vincent van Gogh's "The Starry Night" graces the cover of the 20-page booklet - included with the CD - wherein the "unstuffed" personalities of the great composers come to life. Finkelmeyer conjures visions of Debussy on the Jerry Springer Show ("kick him to the curb, honey!"), Chopin flying coach ("I didn't get my bag of nuts!"), and Liszt smashing instruments on stage (the original rock star).

Like his performances, this CD, by the award-winning pianist hailed a "virtuoso of both technical and emotional power", features fare for the first-time Classical music listener and pianophile alike. Debussy's favorite "Clair de lune", Gershwin's jazzy "Three Preludes" and the beloved "Pavane for a Dead Princess" by Ravel mingle successfully with the virtually unheard Leschetizky "Romance", Gottschalk's seldom recorded "Union" and the finger-twisting virtuosity of Liszt's "Faust Waltzes".

The unique packaging of "Passionately UnStuffed" is certain to further Finkelmeyer's mission to open the door, and offer all people a chance to explore the wonderful world of Classical music!

MAGNIFICENT.......2003-11-24

Christopher Finkelmeyer has a way of putting the music into your heart and soul. He has a wonderful way of presenting his music that is unique to all others in the business. His personality comes forth when the music begins and he draws you into his world, which is a place you want to be. Passionately Unstuffed speaks volumes to all who listen to it. I highly recommend it!!

Real Men, Real Music.......2001-06-22

The playing on this cd is come of the finest I have ever heard. Tone, sensitivity, interpretation, lyricism, rhythmic power and sense of humor... It's just about everything you could hope to hear from the instrument. But the effect of this particular cd is not limited to the sound. Somehow this artist achieved the effect of extending himself and the composers directly to listeners as if he were in performance. The humorous, personal descriptions he's included in his liner notes bring this experience to life in a unique way that has been extremely successful with my students.

The playing on this cd is come of the finest I have ever heard. Tone, sensitivity, interpretation, lyricism, rhythmic power and sense of humor... It's just about everything you could hope to hear from the instrument. But the effect of this particular cd is not limited to the sound. Somehow this artist achieved the effect of extending himself and the composers directly to listeners as if he were in performance. The humorous, personal descriptions he's included in his liner notes bring this experience to life in a unique way that has been extremely successful with my students. I whole-heartedly recommend Passionately Unstuffed and look forward to Mr. Finkelmeyer's next project.

Christopher Finkelmeyer: Passionatley Unstuffed.......2001-05-11

If you don't already love classical music, you will after listening to this album. It is intended for people who may be new to classical piano, but it is not the typical hodge-podge of light-weight snippets. Some of the pieces, such as Debussey's Clair de Lune, will be familiar to almost everyone, but Mr. Finkelmeyer plays them with such depth and feeling that one hears them as if for the first time. Most listeners will actually hear pieces such as Leschetizky's Consolation in B Major for the first time on this CD and wonder why it is not more popular. Mr. Finkelmeyer makes these and other slower, lyrical pieces sound easy, but his playing of Ginastera's Dance of the Artful Cowboy will immedately erase any doubts about his virtuosity. He is a powerhouse of music, yet even in the fastest pieces every note retains its clarity and brilliance.

Mr. Finkelmeyer's intelligence and wit shine not only in his playing, but also in the 20-pages of notes. His light-hearted comments on the composers and the music contribute immensely to the enjoyment of the music, but even without the CD they would be worth the price. If, Heaven forbid, Mr. Finkelmeyer ever tires of playing piano, he could have a second career as a comedy writer.

Buy this album for yourself, and buy several copies for your friends, especially the young ones, who think they hate classical music.

Fabulous.......2001-05-11

I love the entire CD and the variety of musical pieces. Although I particularly love the middle compositions. They are so beautiful and peaceful. They melt the stress away while at the same time giving you energy.

Customer Reviews:

"Everybody's a critic!".......2005-03-14

Without getting technical, and having listened to these superb performances/recordings myself, I must say that the truth lies more on the side of the prior reviewer who referred to the detractors as "musical simpletons." The vast majority of listeners will surely DELIGHT in this fine, 3-CD set, assuming, of course, that they do enjoy Gottschalk's music in the first place (and who could NOT enjoy it?!). In sum, just buy it, play it, and relish it!

Superb work.......2003-07-10

Mandel captures Gottschalk completely in this work. Every work is detailed well. I play much of Gottschalk, and Mandel's interpretation's are done to near perfection. I would dismiss the two previous reviewer's who talked about 'wrong note's' and other garbage, obviously reviewed by musical simpletons. I highly recommed this cd.

A near miss hit........2002-12-04

While I do have to agree with two other people who reviewed this cd, Mandel does lack some technical abilities. Be it as it may, even if these are his first takes, these are pretty darn good. However, Ability shouldn't be mostly considered when rating these works. Mandels' emotions are well played, tempo changes are great especially in Bamboula, and really well unlike most other ecordings, these sound crispy. What should matter the most is that we aren't listening to a robot play the piano, that would just be boring. Gottschalk doesn't want to be quoted, in my opinion, he wants to be interpreted. And like in all music something different is always better.

Say it ain't so! We DO get what we pay for........2002-10-04

It bedevils me every time I reflect that such a great composer is not more noticed and recorded. Gottschalk has a melodic touch that rivals Mozart (yes, this is my opinion), a dexterity that rivals Chopin and an emotion to rival Mendelssohn. Yet, where are the recordings.

Honestly, this is the most comprehensive recording of Gottshcalk, I think, that exists. And our favorite works are all here. L'union, The Last Hope, The Banjo, and in my opinion the pinnacle of emotional pot-boilers, The Dying Poet. This set will provide hours of listening and re-listening pleasure. So why's it so durn inexpensive?

No, this isn't a recording pulled out of the dustbin from 1940 and 'spruced up' for a bargain reissue. The sound quality is quite good, actually. The recording is inexpensive because, if I had to guess and I guess I do, the tracks are all first takes. Of course, Alan Mandel plays with good feeling and ept dexterity but he misses much of the crisp speed and technique that Gottschalk demands. The trills are not smooth and the runs are not clean. Geez! I'm sure they didn't let him redo anything as some of the mistakes were just obvious! Not to worry though. As most of the botched runs are lightning fast, they're only mildly noticeable.

Sadley though, I have to reccomend this recording out of necessity. The other Gottschalk piano collections are good too, but this one has ALL the good stuff where as they only have some of it.
