5 out of 5 stars The Grand Dance of Death........2006-11-09

yes, not early Marduk, maybe not the best either. 5 stars for me though. All tracks on this CD blew me away. Solid (and evil sounding) vocals, blend perfect with the sound that Marduk has produced on this one. After blasting this CD, you come away feeling like you've been mind-raped by something grim and evil. And I mean that in a positive way! Basically if you like Dark Funeral or Darkthrone, you can't miss with Marduk. Worthy of a place on the black metal rack of torture. And check out Marduk's double live outing, Infernal Eternal.

Unholy Black and Death Metal Forever!

5 out of 5 stars Exceptional.......2005-10-24

Not the most exteme Marduk your going to find,(if you want total brutality, check out the new one "Plague Angel") but thats fine with me. I personnally can't listen to the totally brutal, blistering fast and insanely obsene constantly, this is a nice departure. I own all of Marduks albums and this is one of my favorites...I highly recommend it!

4 out of 5 stars Low key for Marduk standards.......2004-02-11

It's pretty much a rite of passage in the metal scene. Following one's attempt at the most perfectly brutal album ever recorded, it's considered the mature move to step back and do something a bit more thoughtful, which also implies more subdued. Of course, more subdued in black metal terms can still mean neurotically frantic, but the idea is to inject some sort of pathos in there somewhere, let them know you really care. Well, Marduk have certainly displayed no interest in toppling their prior masterpiece of twisted havoc, "Panzer Division Marduk". The majority of "... Danse Macabre"'s eleven tracks hover around mid-period Hypocrisy in terms of intensity (Pete Tagtgren's little brother Tommy produced), often skirting the line between death and black metal(s).
What we've got here is a talented band who are struggling to put out at least one album a year without painting themselves into a box, which is hard to do while treading these musical waters. With each passing month it seems less likely a new savior will lift black metal out of it's creative slump, but in all honesty Marduk were never that concerned with breaking the mold anyway. They've traversed every road there is for a black metal band to follow, rarely coloring too far outside the lines, but while their peers are tripping all over themselves trying to predict the music's future, Morgan Hakansson and his evil cronies are perfectly content living day to day. It's the difference between planning for a comfortable retirement and just having the most fun with your money while you've got some left in your pocket, and in the end, which is truly more conservative?

1 out of 5 stars The Slow side of Marduk,Really slow.......2003-09-05

I hate to say it but La Grande is a real disappointment. From the weak into to the slow breakdowns played alll the time on this disc. I would suggest picking up a good Marduk CD like Panzer Division Marduk.

5 out of 5 stars Sick, brutal, black metal.......2003-02-25

If you want an extremely evil and violent CD check this out. The singer, Legion does some of the best vocal work in black metal and is one of the best vocalists right next to Dani Filth and Shagrath. This album is very technical, and fast but still very brutal. The best songs would have to be "La Grande Danse Macabre", "Funeral B*tch", and "Jesus Christ...Sodomized". These three standout tracks show how true black metal should sound. I would suggest you buy this and any other Marduk CD if you are looking for an evil, anti-christian metal album. STAY METAL.

The sound could be better, but Arnaldo Cohen's whirlwind technique and rapier temperament is tailor-made for the demanding transcriptions presented here. By contrast, the Brazilian pianist imbues the cryptic late Liszt works with tenderness and mystery. A disc no Liszt maven should pass up, especially at Naxos's bargain price. --Jed Distler

5 out of 5 stars Planned spontaneity .......2007-03-24

People who shy away from ''classical'' - or ''serious'', as some would put it - music for its supposedly greater depth and sounder intellectual basis should make acquaintance with one of the funniest, wierdest and most imaginative composers of all time, the Hungarian virtuoso Franz Liszt. Totentanz is the closest thing to Iron Maiden and Andrew Lloyd Weber that we have in classical music. It always reminds me of "Fear of the Dark" and "Jesus Christ Superstar". It's so trivial, gratuitous, frenzied, shallow, pointless, ugly, flamboyant, showy and outright over-the-top that it borders on ridicule. One gets embarassed upon hearing it. Some of the music in this disc is so unashamedly bad and shallow that it becomes utterly funny and hugely entertaining. Arnaldo Cohen has succeeded more spectacularly than anyone before him in conveying the sheer excitement and the very well planned spontaneity of these pieces. His fiery playing and absolute command of dynamics and colour are breathtaking. He's undoubtedly one of the most intense and impressive pianists to have ever played this music (by the way, he's a great Schumann interpreter too). Other highlights of this recording are the irresistible and haunting ''Unstern: sinistre, disastro'' and the chilling ''Danse Macabre''. Nuage gris is an interesting attempt at atonality and the Impromptu is beautifully and masterly played. After all is said and done, it's a wonderful and exciting recording (provided you don't take some of these pieces too seriously). I've constantly found myself getting back to it lately. I dare to say it's a must-have.

5 out of 5 stars One of the finest Liszt recordings available.......2006-06-29

Franz Liszt was one of the most influential composers of the nineteenth century, with a vast amount of music of high quality and musical value. Unfortunately, there is a trend in the recording world to focus on Liszt's supposed "famous" piano pieces like the Liebestraume No. 3, Un Sospiro, Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2 and La Campanella. Leslie Howard's 59 Volumes of Liszt's music on the Hyperion label is certainly a remarkable exception. But it seems every professional pianist today has his own Liszt CD of music that has been recorded by twenty other pianists. Thankfully, this Naxos release, which constitutes the first Volume in an ever growing series of Liszt's piano music, traverses the "non-famous" and more profound piano works of Liszt.

Liszt's piano transcription of Saint-Saens' "Danse Macabre" is an ingenious arrangement and one which Humphrey Searle believes is "a great improvement on the original work!" Indeed, it captures all of the orchestral effects, dancing skeletons, and vivid colors of this magnificent work. Moreover, Cohen's performance elicits a chilling and exciting atmosphere. One barely has to strain to imagine a troupe of dancing skeletons, conjured easily through the shrieking and rattling registers of the piano. Liszt's "Nuages Gris," an example of pre-Debussy impressionism, is a staple from Liszt's late period and Cohen plays it with ghostly delicacy. Liszt's "Unstern: sinistre, disastro" is startling for its modernism and evocation of an impending misfortune or evil. Cohen's expert handling of dynamics and the sheer power of his emotional involvement makes this a memorable account. A deeper exploration of Liszt's morbid and bleak imagination occurs in the two "La lugubre gondolas." Inspired by Wagner's death, they are visceral, disturbing, hauntingly beautiful, and truly unlike any other music emitted from the piano in the nineteenth century. Not even Chopin accomplishes what Liszt does in making the piano communicate terror, hopelessness and pessimism.

Liszt's "Reminiscences des Huguenots" displays an early but equally impressive stage of Liszt's evolving style. Leslie Howard has recorded this operatic fantasy many times due to the several versions Liszt wrote. Having heard all of Howard's renditions, however, I am stunned to find Cohen's interpretation totally indomitable. He brings this work to a level of brilliance and drama that Howard's execution lacks. Cohen allows the music to breathe and sing; his tempo and phrasing are acute; he refuses to rush through tender moments, but also has sense enough to intensify the bravura sections. So far Cohen has left me exceedingly contented, but he elevates himself even further with his colossal efforts in the piano transcription of "Totentanz." For those unfamiliar with such a work, it is an epic set of variations on the "Dies Irae" plainchant and one of Liszt's masterpieces, "inspired as far back as 1838, when Liszt saw Orcagna's frescoes 'The Triumph of Death' in the Campo Santo at Pisa." Liszt's transcription transforms the work for piano and orchestra into a tour-de-force solo piano composition. Every facet of the original version is absorbed and embraced. More significantly, Cohen commands orchestral sonority, conjures demonic cackles, and gracefully delivers dramatic expression.

Bottom line: I simply cannot resist the urge to call this recording a stunning achievement. These are the kinds of works Liszt should really be admired for. Arnaldo Cohen is virtually obscure in today's recording world, but after hearing his power, sensitivity and interpretative clairvoyance in these Liszt works, I am only baffled by his limited discography. For another inexpensive recording of his, I would direct the reader to this poetic triumph: Brahms: Variations and Fugue in B flat on a Theme of Handel; Schumann: Fantasia in C; Arabesque.

5 out of 5 stars Somehow I missed this one when it first came out.......2003-06-28

I've only recently become familiar with the playing of Arnaldo Cohen, and I've gotten several of his recordings in the last month or so. I'm impressed by his red-blooded playing. He's not one of those cookie-cutter competition-winning note-spinners, but tends to put more of his own passion into the performance. Of course, that's important with repertoire on this Liszt disc. Just listen to the coruscating 'Danse macabre,' Liszt's arrangement of Saint-Saëns's symphonic poem. It will peel the paint off your listening-room wall.

He plays both versions of 'La lugubre gondola,' something we rarely get, and certainly not in recital. He manages to make them very different.

This is mostly late Liszt, the exception being the 'Huguenots' piece which, I have to admit, does go on a bit too long. That's Liszt's fault, not Cohen's. He does all that can be done with it.

I've always been struck by the unsettling 'Unstern' ('Dark Star', as some translate it, but I've come to think of it as Liszt's 'Black Hole' because it's so weird and modern-sounding) ever since I heard it as an encore played by Garrick Ohlsson years ago. It's one of those forward-looking, almost-atonal things that Liszt has, in latter years, gotten more and more attention for. Liszt subtitled it 'sinistre, disastro' and Cohen infuses those qualities into this strange little masterpiece; it is head and shoulders above Leslie Howard's pale performance from his complete Liszt traversal. The only other worthy competitor that I'm aware of is Pollini on DG.

Finally we have a chillingly effective performance of the solo piano version of 'Totentanz', Liszt's exhaustive workout on the Dies irae. I've always preferred it to the piano-and-orchestra version, which is more commonly heard and recorded.

This is volume one of Naxos' ongoing series of complete Liszt piano music; they are using a different pianist for each CD and they certainly picked a good one to start with.

5 out of 5 stars A Portrait of the Virtuosity and Mind of Franz Liszt.......2000-04-25

This is a brilliant and wonderfully priced CD! If you enjoy the works of Liszt, then get this CD. The selected works here detail, in my opinion, the darker, more emotional pieces written/transcribed by Liszt. This includes Nuages gris and the 2 Lugubre gondola pieces, all considered to be "experiments" in mood and tonality. In Nuages gris, Liszt pours out some of his darker emotions, possibly related to the turmoils of his life with women, composition (and its critics, to which there were many), and old age (since this was one of his last works). Many dislike these darker works, but there are a few, such as myself, who find an inherant beauty to them. Of course, the album is also full of Liszt's virtuoso piano writing, which Mr. Cohen pulls off in fine fashion. Totentanz features some amazingly fast runs, while also filling in for the rest of the orchestra (this is an orchestral work of Liszt's which he condensed for piano). This album pays homage to the often misunderstood genius of Franz Liszt, and is a worthy addition to any collection. (Oh, and the price doesn't hurt either :)

      Customer Reviews:

      1 out of 5 stars Disappointing CD.......2003-09-05

      Too slow for me as being a Marduk fan,I care for releases such as(Panzer Division Marduk)and not the slower side of Marduk.

      5 out of 5 stars Marduk's best album.......2001-03-27

      After having listened to Marduk's previous albums, LaGrande is their best effortto date. Where most Black Metal bands lose focus andveer off into experimental phases, Marduk have maintained their brutality and aggression. This is one album that fans of Black Metal and Marduk should buyimmediately.

      4 out of 5 stars All the French chestnuts, well roasted, at a super-budget price.......2006-01-12

      If you are passing by and notice that this DG Panorama two-fer is selling used for pennies, it's worth a listen. DG has put forward some of their star conductors in this repertoire (Levine in Berlioz, Dutoit in Honegger and Ibert, Martinon in Debussy, Ozawa in Ravel). Nothing here is so outstanding as to merit five stars, with the possible exception of Levine's Benevenuto Cellini Over. and Karajan's Afternoon of a Faun, but everything is good. Even Daniel Barenboim does a respectable job with the Danse Macabre and Saint-Saens' ghostly tone poem Chasseur Maudit (which needs to be heard under Munch for maximum thrills). Sonics are fine, too.
