Brooks Williams: 'Seven Sisters'.......2000-01-22

With 'Seven Sisters' Brooks moves from the somewhat more rootsy sound of 'Knife Edge' to a moody, more introspective sound. The exquisite and exceptional production brings out both the soulfulness of Brooks' vocals as well as his richly textured guitar stylings, both of which are in top form here. It's as close as many will get to having Brooks in the room with them! Throughout 'Sisters' Brooks explores themes of loss, longing, regret, and hope with a poignancy and emotional directness perhaps unparalleled in his earlier recordings. While many recognize him as a leader in folk guitar technique, 'Seven Sisters' is a clear indication that Brooks is far more than a fretboard magician. He is also a songwriter able to plumb the depths of his own experience and to communicate such experience with honesty and sensitivity. A superb album that I can not recommend strongly enough.

Brooks Saddens his tone?.......1999-12-19

I have gotten all of his albums to date, and this holds the course as far as style and substance. He has beutiful instrumental numbers, as well as poignant lyrics as always. The songs seem to betray a little more soul searching and hard times for Brooks, who in his strong lyrics walks the listener into his emotions. This album took me a little more time to latch on to, but now is regular fodder for my CD player.

Absolutely, Percy at his best............2006-07-15

For anyone who loves Merchant-Ivory films and recalls the background music for Howard's End (my favorite), Mock Morris has to keep playing over and over in one's head; but for me it's never annoying, only happy.

This ensemble enhances every composition - marvelous!

A delight!.......2000-08-12

This is one of the most delightful recordings of Grainger's works I have heard. If you're looking for Grainger or just enjoyable music, this is for you. It lifts my spirits and inspires me with the great performance as well as the wonderful, lyrical melodies.

More music of Percy Grainger.......1999-09-29

Every last note..........2006-06-14

A super budget 5 CD collection of all of Grainger's Piano music.
Every last note!
The shipping alone would be $17.00+ for the 5 individual Cds.
Englishman Martin Jones plays these as if he wrote them. He is thoroughly inside this music.
I think his best work to date.
He is joined on CD #5 by Richard Mcmahon and Phillip Martin. Where they rollick in various combos and trios on 1, 2 and 3 pianos. This is exhilerating. Especially on an truly uplifting version of Green Bushes.
The entire set is strongly idiomatic and given a clear, crisp, warm and spacious recording. FIRST CLASS sound.
There are too many highlights to single out, but the In A Nutshell Suite and Green Bushes are especially GOOD!
There is not a bad note or "vibe" on any of these CDs.
Highly recommended for Granger fans and fans of English Piano Music.

Eotvos has a real theatre timbral imagination,.......2000-03-20

I've come to prefer Opera less on Compact Disc, I keep being distracted imagining wha the sets and lighting would look like, and that effects my listening, or anyones. Since the visual code has replaced the verbal one , so the structuralist tell us, this makes the listening experience all that more shallow under the mileau of after-post modernity. Which is why composers turn more and more to what works for the least common denominator of theatre goers.And Eotvos has a real theatrical imagination,having worked with Wilson,Tati and Chereau, European drammatic gods, his music has always served the accessible without in any way being condescending ,one-dimensional or simple minded. A feature I had wished Someone would learn on this side of the Atlantic, with direct marriage to the market of Disney and hip fashion. The Chekhov story invests and depicts the three daughters of Colonel Prozorov and occurs, in the original over four acts, a period of four years. Eotvos brings a formidable orchestral technique in sound and structure here in what he calls 'sequences', dealing with the events in an elliptical way. In this way he did enrich the Chekhovian narrative with greater dimensions of content. Eotvos is purely fascinating, his music has tension always, it pours over the drammatic proceeedings with a highly charged yet immediate voice, as in the opening with a bare, exposed lines of the accordeon. The writing for voices is typical opera, very direct and tuneful. The orchestral pit is inhabited by a chamber orchestra, with a 50 piece orchestra behind the stage, front center. In this way Eotvos can play with simple yet effective melodic lines. History resonants here to the farewell reminded me of the farewell in Mozarts Cosi.. The sisters are portrayed by men, in counter tenor and alto roles. Much like pre-classic opera,Handel. It's beautiful stuff, clean ethereal, effeminate and transparent singing.Yet the simplified beauty is arresting yet Eotvos keeps again this pervasive tension in the forefront. Conductor Kent Nagano is part of the new opera European crowd, he has sailed many drammatic seas there.
