Amazon.com

Marx and Lenin probably would not have appreciated the irony, but after decades of Communist repression of religion, the former Soviet bloc is the source of a profound outpouring of explicitly Christian expression. This is manifested in the music of such composers as Henryk Gorecki, a Pole, and Arvo Pärt, an Estonian. Part, a refugee from serialism, here writes in a quasi-minimalist style that he calls "tintinnabuli," a sound that echoes medieval composition. A fan of vocal music ("The human voice is the most perfect instrument of all"), he uses choruses to superb effect. This disc includes some of his best work, including the popular Magnificat, beautifully rendered by the Theatre of Voices under Paul Hillier. --Sarah Bryan Miller

5 out of 5 stars a great combination, part and hilliard.......2004-06-21

i purchased this CD recently and was a bit worried. i enjoy part and hillard, but the length of the pieces was often so short. i really enjoy it when part writes long, epic pieces and the vocal work really explores all types of music.

instead, what i found was a collection of many small gems, each of which combine to form the larger work i was looking for. i'm not particularily religious, but i find the deep spiritualism in part's work to be profound and soothing. this disc is no exception, as part and hillaird explore religion, theology and philosophy through music and voice.

this CD is well arranged and orchestrated, and ranks among the best of any of part's works. i've been leary of hearing part work outside of the ECM new series of recordings, but i'm happy i explored. few pairings work as well as hillaird and part, i'm thankful they share their work.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Profound.......2004-02-06

I picked up this wonderful gem on a whim. As sacristan for my Jesuit university campus ministry, I was looking for good and movintg religious music. This surpasses anything being marketed as "liturgical" music for churches.

Part creates music that is beatiful, moving and profound. It transported me to another world; it is a deeply moving experience. Some of these tracks have already become my favorite works of musical art as well as meditative prayers.

5 out of 5 stars Power and Grace.......2002-01-10

Hillier's Theatre of Voices gives an absolutely wonderful rendering of Pärt's work. The music is amazing, recalling medieval choral music as well as contemporary ideas in musical composition. Pärt manages to touch on a wide range of feeling throughout all of these compositions, conveying emotion while maintaining the kind of austerity of sound found in medieval chant. Ultimately, the CD provides a moving and enjoyable listening experience. I would recommend it to both seasoned fans of choral music and neophytes alike.

5 out of 5 stars Rich, lovely, unmatched music.......2001-07-23

This music is gorgeous, whether you think you like choral music or not.

The first time I heard Arvo Part, I was browsing in a music store and stopped to listen with a pair of crummy headphones. The sounds and tone drew me into another world, one made lovely by the rich and carefully-worked composition of a master.

The recording is perfect. The music is like nothing else I've heard, more deeply-felt and inspiring than anything I'm familiar with. I would not call myself a fan of choruses, but Part's work is extraordinary.

5 out of 5 stars Classical music is not dead.......2000-05-18

For anyone who thought that "classical" music had been killed by atonal dissonance or kidnapped into the absurd esoteria of academic abstraction, I recommend the music of Avro Part. Similar in style to another (some would say 'THE' other) great modern composer Gorecki, the music is heavy and religious in tone and absolutely beautiful. I was an immediate convert to Part's music, and, from what I can tell, I am not alone.

5 out of 5 stars The Flying Dutchman .......2006-09-02

A ndres DVDs get better, an excellent show in wonderful surroundings, I have his latest.

3 out of 5 stars Content Excellent but marred by poor video........2006-04-18

I was dissapointed in this video from the viewpoint of very poor video quality. Barely on a par with VHS. I have a 480P front projector with an 80" diagonal picture and it was unwatchable on that system I had to view it on my 36" tv to have an acceptable picture and even then it was not great. I have several Andre Rieu videos and have never run into that before. According to other reviews Denon has put out a very poor product this time.

The show itself is terrific as Andre always is.

5 out of 5 stars The Flying Dutchman.......2006-04-06

Excellent CD to listen to and relax, to listen while I'm working, and at any time of the day. Andre Rieu is good music!

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful Performance.......2006-03-03

Andre's Flying Dutchman was a delight to watch. Filmed in Limberg, this concert is beautifully pieced together with a lovely array of music. The voices of his beautiful soloists add to the atmosphere of this wonderful concert. Something I would highly recommend.

4 out of 5 stars Marches II.......2004-01-17

i'm trying out for drum major, and part of the try outs is marching an L-pattern, the kind of pattern that you would do in a regular drum major competition. it shows your parade marching skills, your ability to stick to tempo, and your directing abilities. so for tryouts, i need to pick a march and this cd has so many to choose from, its awesome! and its also great if your a band director looking for a good march for your marching band to play, or if you just like listening to John Sousa, who rocks. yay for this cd!

    1 out of 5 stars MISSED OPPORTUNITY.......2004-12-08

    If you've read this far, you're probably considering purchasing this CD because you're a fan of the fine British air war films and their soundtracks from which the selections contained therein are taken. Except that they're NOT, in fact, taken from the soundtracks: they're copied, very poorly, by a British "concert" band, the kind you can hear on any Sunday afternoon on any bandstand in any public garden in Blighty. Buyer beware then, mate. But I say, old boy, it would be awfully jolly if you could manage the genuine article sometime, what, there's a good chap. Pip, pip, cheerio!

    Andre Rieu gives listeners a Musical Party with this Gala Evening, recorded Live. This is my favorite, although with Andre you cannot go wrong.

    Happy, Joyful, Fun. Get ready to clap, sing & dance.

    Live in Dublin has better sound, but it comes in a close second to this double CD set.

    I have them all. This is my favorite.

    This is probable the best CD made by Andre Rieu together with Fiesta.
    Should be absolutely loved by Dutch people as it has quite a few typically Dutch songs perfectly executed Live.
    It will make you sing along...even if you cannot keep a tune.

    Fantastic Andre and Thanks a lot.

    4 out of 5 stars Music for festivity !.......1999-11-30

    This CD was recordered live. IT's a perfect cd for the "new year" although the sound is not perfect. But it's andré Rieu and we can always appreciate his music. If you like the Johann Strauss orchestra, you'll like the Maastricht Salon orchestra. In fact,some musicians who play in Johann Strauss, play in the Maastricht Salon orchestra. You will hear populars songs like "Old friend", "Stars and stips" "Amazing grace" and the theme song from "Popeye" etc... IT,s different from the other concert of André but it's beautiful. If you are a fan of André Rieu, you must have it.

    5 out of 5 stars My wife and I were born in Maastricht now live in Melbourne.......1999-03-21

    This concert is performed on "ashwednesday" after the carnival that is celebrated in that part of the Netherlands,they call that province Limburg, the people speak a certain dialect,part German, French, and Maastricht is one of the most beautifull cities in Western Europe,the reason for having "Euro"decision made in "the treaty of Maastricht" a few years ago.When we listen to this music,we shed a tear.

    1 out of 5 stars Excellent music however recording engineer ruined the cd.......1999-01-06

    Recording engineer Conny Peters has done it again. What could have been an excellect CD was turned into a less than satisfactory one. André's violin sounds like a cheap toy. Improper microphone placement, incorrect recording levels are but a few of the problems found with this CD.

    5 out of 5 stars EXQUISITE ! DELIGHTFUL !.......2006-01-22

    What a wonderful collection of excellently performed and acoustically marvelous music -- rousing, contemplative, romantic, cheery - some of which were the long-remembered and not-often-heard-now favorite songs of my childhood and youth.

    Make sure you read the enclosure that is tucked away into the front cover of this CD -- written in 3 languages, it proides little-known informatin about some of these wonderful tunes and their composers, and the illustrations throught the booklet are also a very nice touch.

    Listening to this CD can be an intoxicating experience - what delightful selections all on one CD! From Gershwin to Gould, from Anderson to Sousa and more - a lovely Broadway tune (from Carousel), and the old familiar Arkansas Traveler as well, (and even a little barking and whistling on "The Whistler and His Dog"!) this eclectic collection of pieces was artfully and unforgettably performed, much to my great enjoyment. Although this was the first time I ever heard the New London Orchestra perform, you can be sure that now I will look for other recordings of theirs. I also plan to buy another copy so I can play it in my cubicle (quietly when at work, but LOUDER when I am by myself -- hee hee!!).

    What more can I say? I love this CD with its remarkable collection of songs!!!

    5 out of 5 stars Good for all collections.......2000-12-09

    Well, here is an English orchestra recording pieces that some American orchestra should have done long ago. This is music to have fun with and much to my delight was a piece that I have only heard on a 10 inch LP. That is Sym 5 1/2 by Don Gillis. This is one of the best light pieces written in the 20th Century by an American, but sadly little performed. Buy it just for the Gillis piece and consider all the others as frosting on the cake. Take a break from Wagner and Glass and get this one and the three CD's of British Light Music. Just enjoy. Aloha..

    5 out of 5 stars A Disc that is a good time all by itself!.......1999-05-17

    This recording is the kind that some American "Pops" Orchestras should be making. Most of these light classics are ones that the Boston Pops have recorded before, but I don't think have been done as well as Mr. Corp and the New London Orch., have done them. This disc is a real treat and I hope just the first of many. We as Americans need to rediscover our musical works.

    4 out of 5 stars An excellent compilation of light American classics.......1998-12-09

    British composers are well known for writing for the "Proms" concerts that feature light symphonic fare. There is much less American music in the same vein as Eric Coates, Edward German and Ronald Quilter, but conductor Ronald Corp has unearthed some real treasures on this disc of mostly short, light pieces. Amazon's listing doesn't include two of the best selections on the disc, Richard Rogers' Carousel Waltz and Don Gillis entertaining Symphony 5 1/2, subtitled "Symphony for Fun." It's a real crowd pleaser, and the fine sound on the recording is a good match for the entertaining repertoire.
