Mill. Classical review.......2007-05-13

This is a great set of recordings for the money, the only problem was I've had to clean some of the CD's before they played correctly.

classical music for the unitiated.......2007-04-01

This set is a good way to start listening to classical music. It's very well produced and easy to listen to. I purchased it to use as part of my world history high school class. It would have been nice to have some bio information on the composers. However, the product is exactly as advertised and good value for the money. The students were intrigued by how many of the excerpts they had heard before.

Some little gems there that I had forgotten!.......2007-03-30

Although I studied classical music at school, I had all but forgotten it until I bought this set. I heard several tracks I haven't heard for over 30 years, and I had been humming Brahms's 'Hungarian Dance no. 5' for years without ever knowing what it was and it was on the disc, so that was nice.

I found it to be a very good selection overall, but I felt too much had already been heard on TV, which of course is what lots of newcomers to classical music might appreciate. I managed to find about 2 hours of tracks that I wanted to keep, which works out quite expensive per disc, but I did find some wonderful music I had completely forgotten about, so it was worth it. All in all, it represents good value, and I have only knocked one star off as so much of it had been used in adverts.

It is definitely a good introduction to classical music, and it has made me want to listen to more of it, so I don't regret this 'expensive' purchase one bit!

Classical Masterpieces of the Millennium [20 CD Set]

A very helpful collection.......2007-03-24

I define this set as an excellent way to find out who you like, and who you don't, among 20 of the important composers. It opens the door to purchasing more complete pieces by composers you do like, and can save a lot of time and money in the process.
To criticize the set for not containing more composers, or more than just snippets of those who are in the set, is missing the point: it is a helpful introduction to finding your way in the huge maze of classical music. It succeeds admirably in this.
Sound quality is uniformly very good on an audiophile system.
Highly recommended.

Excellent!.......2007-03-08

A great way to start a classical music collection. It's nice to have a full CD of each composer. It makes it easy to keep track of selections/composers I already have and what composers I still need to puchase to complete my collection.

Nearly a decade into his career, Ice Cube remains at the forefront of gangsta rap--but when it comes to manipulating sounds, he sometimes seems one-dimensional, especially when compared with the likes of Snoop Doggy Dogg (who had a lot of help in that department from Cube's old N.W.A. mate Dr. Dre) and sample master Sean "Puffy" Combs. But on War & Peace, Vol. 1, Cube's first album in five years, the hip-hop renaissance man reestablishes himself as a kingpin in the studio as well as on the street. Every song is surrounded by minor-key melodies and moody flourishes that enhance the effect of the intimidating lyrics, and the overall sound of the mix is rich and deep. Cube doesn't stop there, however, adding touches such as a No Doubt sample loop on "War and Peace" and a queasy guitar riff on "Fuck Dying," compliments of neo-metal marauders Korn. Ice Cube plans to follow up The War Disc with The Peace Disc, which he says will be mellower and more ethereal, but for now, Cube remains the hardest in the game. --Jon Wiederhorn

Customer Reviews:

Ice Cube at his worst.......2007-06-14

Ice Cube was at his best in the days of Amerikkkaz Most Wanted, Death Certificate, The Preadator and Lethal Injection. He kept it gangsta but at least he slipped you some solid gems through the music. Unfortunately this album is not even touching those albums whether in content or production. Although I understand why he had to back down, I dont understand why would he make himself a laughing stock with this album. The Good: In the song Ghetto Vet(which was also in the I Got The Hook Up soundtrack) Ice Cube talks about being paralyzed by gun violence and songs like 3 Strikes You In and Penitentiary remind you vaguely of the old school Ice Cube. The Bad: Pushin Weight was a stupid single and Mr Short Khop sucks! Greed sucked on the Gang Related soundtrack and it sucks now. Ice Cube destroys any fond memories of Once Upon A Time In The Projects with a weak sequel and Cash Over *** will have tapping the skip button with the quickness. The Ugly: Dr. Frankenstein could have been the number 1 contender for the worst song on the album until......I heard the terrible F*** Dying(featuring Korn)! The worst rock/rap infusion ever made and what was Cube thinking making songs with Korn? Limos Demos and Bimbos and X-******* are Ice Cube at his sophomoric worst but as bad as they are they are pale in comparison to the grotesque If I Was F****** You. Bottom Line: This album is a disgrace to the west coast veteran and is Ice Cube's worst album ever. The production was lame and Ice Cube kept talking about the main stuff. Dont mistake this album as Ice Cube's best and all you bay-bay kids that keep saying that he stopped making good albums after The Predator need to check yourself. Lethal Injection will still be reached for after all these years when War And Peace Vol 1 will be catching dust like it should.

An Underrated Disc From The Father Of Gangsta Rap (4.5).......2006-09-23

Ice Cube made a very solid return to the rap game after a 5 year hiatus with his War Disc, where he promptly confronts ghetto difficulties. While doing so, he reaffirms his status as a premier rapper in the game today with hard, angry rap deliveries over some very nice beats. Ice Cube his just returned now with his latest studio album "Laugh Now, Cry Later" too which boasts some great tracks as well.

"Ask About Me" is a powerful opener, with a vibing instrumental beat and Cube spitting his lyrics strongly. "Pushin' Weight" is a good track where Cube explains how he's still holdin' it down in the game with his rhymes. "Dr. Frankenstein" is another tight track featuring Mr. Short Kop for another appearance on the album. "War and Peace" sees Ice Cube suggesting that peace is needed for all and he states "Westside for life but still down with the East". "Ghetto Vet" may be my favourite rap cut on the album where Cube takes a setting of a hospital describing a scene of contemplating suicide while near death. "Greed" is a heavy gangsta cut to follow it up, then Ice Cube moves into lyrics about money with "Cash Over A**" and "The Curse Of Money." The last few songs on this album are some of the best, which include "Extradition", a track laced with a sweet beat, "Penitentiary" and "3 Strikes You In", an aggressive cut.

Overall, this is a fairly strong rap release from Ice Cube who doesn't touch on anything political but rather spits about the hood as usual in a variety of ways. Lyrically he most often on the mark and his voice sounds mature and very strong. Recommended to any Ice Cube fan.

One of the best from Cube........2006-03-24

Well this album might not be as good as Death Certificate or The Predator but it still is a great album from Cube. When I first heard The War disc I liked it but not alot. I finally got around to hear the album again and I started to enjoy it more. Cube takes over as producer in the war disc and he does a good job at it too. Songs like Cash Over A$$ is one of my favorite songs on the album. X-B!%@#'s is another good track from cube. I understand alot of Cube fans not likeing the album much. When you hear Amerikkas Most Wanted, Death Certificate or Predator, he talks alot about racism, struggles in the hood, and violence. In The War Disc he talks the cost's of fame and money, example: Greed, The Curse of Money, and Limos Demos and Bimbos. Also he talks about all the haters and women going out being gold diggers, example: X-B!%@#'s and Cash over A$$. Some stuff he talks about the hood and violence, like Ghetto Vet, 3 Strikes You In, Once Upon A Time In The Projects 2, and Penitentiary. I recommend this album to anyone who likes Cube or is just a big Rap fan. Get this instead of The Peace album because that album isn't Ice Cube's best work. Can't wait for the new album Laugh Now Cry Later out June 6.

Ignore the low fidelity of this 26-track compendium, and you have one of the most interesting gospel compilations ever released. Most of these songs were recorded among a variety of "race" labels between 1926 and 1936, mostly for Paramount and Vocalion. Copious liner notes provide the needed details for each track, along with an essay by label chief/folk legend John Fahey. Soundwise, some of these tunes are indeed primitive--there are more hisses and pops than a Mongolian BBQ. But underneath the surface noises, in tracks by Elder J.J. Hadley (a.k.a. Charley Patton), Washington White (a.k.a. Bukka White), and Blind Roosevelt Graves, there's something magical. Apparently, '26 to '36 saw a newfound interest in sacred street singers that, in turn, inspired record labels to hire blues artists to work under aliases. Whatever the motivation, these tracks are testimonies to a nearly lost era of great musicianship. --Jason Verlinde

a thrill.......2007-02-13

A fine selection of gospel, most of which was probably sold through the "race" market, and I've never seen any of these, even in the vintage sellers. Buy it!

Just buy it, you'll life will be better for it..........2004-10-01

Albums like this make me feel great and really bummed out at the same time. Great because this music is as pure, raw and unpop as you can get, just amazingly real, but bummed because real music like this is gone and dead. At least we have these records of a time before proffesionalism and corporations destroyed music (and everyother art form).
I don't beleive in god or religion, but this is still one of my fave cds, heck if there was music like this in churches nowadays, i'd be going to church all the time. So don't let the term Gospel turn you off, this doesn't sound like Gospel, it's only gospel cause they mention jesus once and a while.

The music's great, find better copies of the 78s to transfer.......2002-03-28

Obviously the music presented here is really great. My only beef is the really poor condition of some of the 78s used. I know this stuff is really rare, but I bet there are cleaner copies of these records out there. Is it supposed to be important that these are John Fahey's 78s? It's not to me. I don't have much music of this type, but I found a much cleaner copy of the Jaybird Coleman track on an old Biograph LP called "This Old World's In A Hell Of A Fix." Even dubbing the version off this LP would have been better that the severely damaged copy of the 78 used for this CD. I wonder if their Charley Patton CD box set was also produced with poor condition 78s like these?

Great, obscure music, and inventive, eye-catching packaging.

This compilation is no exception. This is the most astounding collection of old-time gospel and sacred music ever compiled. From the bone-shattering sacred songs of Charley Patton (as the Elder J.J. Hadley) to the sublime Blind Roosevelt Graves to the strange Rev. I. B. Ware.....there is simply no weak tune here. The title isn't misleading: this is as raw as you can get. Sanctified and rockin' and spine-tingling, this is simply one great album!

Listen to the L.A. guy.......2001-07-11

I did. If this one might be better than "The Half Ain't Never Been Told" then it must be essential. It is. This disc will snap your head back. Powerful no nonsense music. American roots music, oh baby that's one thing we did absolutely right.

a voice teacher early music fan.......2005-12-21

The 4 cantatas performed on this disc were all composed in 1707-08,when Bach was in the first flush of youth, in his early 20's. He was writing cantatas for every Sunday service and at the same time was organist and choirmaster at a church in Muhlhausen. In Bach's day the 4 soloists would have been members of the small chorus; in this recorded performance the soloists serve, together, as the chorus. In the end, we have to say that Bach wrote his most sublime music for the church; but most important, his writings have a spiritual power, a solid strength and sincerity that cannot be traced to technique, but to the inspiration of pure genius. And the 4 soloists on this disc bring out very clearly his greatness!!!!There are quartets, duets, trios and solos all accompanied expertly by the Purcell Quartet. In addition we have recorders, oboe and bassoon to add to the overall instrumental "color". Some of the high points for me: "In deine Hande.." Michael Chance (countertenor solo);"Den Tod....." Emma Kirkby & Chance duet. It's all great music and a must if you are an Early Music fan!

Unusually good installment in Johnson's global coverage of lieder.......2006-05-11

Graham Johnson has picked up and surpassed Fishcer-Dieskau's ambition to cover all things lieder in the world. As an archivist and writer of liner notes Johnson is impeccable. As a musician, though, he tends to be conventional and timid. He often sounds like a librarian cataloguing another item into the index. Lovers of art song can't afford to bite the hand, however. Johson's versions of Schubert and Schumann fall somewhere between the heights of Schwarzkopf and the depths of the journeyman singers in the Naxos lieder series.

Vol. 8 in Hyperion's complete Schumann cycle is a nice high point. None of hte performers are inspired. Padmore is a poor man's Bostridge, Maltman a poor man's Thomas Hampson. Yet both are accomplished artists--far ahead of the earnest but unfinished Lemalu. Maltman gives us a more than respectable Liederkreis Op. 24, hampered mainly by Johnson's routine accompaniment, and Padmore dispatches a handful of unknown early songs, most of them conventional but with moments of melodic or dramatic inspiration. As always with Johnson, no performance will stand comparison with the best, but the musicianship here deserves respect.

A Unique and Wholly Satisfying Schumann Recital.......2006-02-08

It is rare on recordings to have lieder recitals by three individual soloists all under the guidance by one collaborating pianist. But such is the case in this beautifully programmed, performed and engineered CD.

The three gentlemen singers are each well established in their various specialties (except perhaps newcomer Lemalu who seems destined to be well known soon). Tenor Mark Padmore, baritone Christopher Maltman and bass baritone Jonathan Lemalu are each accompanied by the curator of this recital, the exceptional pianist Graham Johnson. Together they present twenty-three songs by Robert Schumann without resorting to cycles. Each song seems to have been selected to suit the gifts of the performers as well as the content of the recital.

Maltman and Padmore are well recorded in many different styles of music while Lemalu is rather new on the scene (his solo albums are worth seeking out as they hold great promise1). The singers are of the type that respects the poetry as well as the music and the level of communication is high. This is a fine installment in Johnson's survey of Schumann's works and stands well on its own as an exceptional recital. Highly recommended. Grady Harp, February 06

Variable Schumann Works Performed by Three Powerful Voices.......2005-05-29

Three superb singers, two established and one fast rising, are the chief sources of pleasure on this recording of composer Robert Schumann's works, part eight of an extensive Schumann series pulled together by pianist and musical archivist Graham Johnson. The centerpiece of the program is "Heine Liederkreis" given a polished and thoughtful reading by baritone Christopher Maltman, who is most familiar to me as part of an even more stellar trio on a superb 2002 recording of Benjamin Britten's "Canticles" with countertenor David Daniels and tenor Ian Bostridge. Here, Maltman handles Heine's descriptive poetry with eloquence. He is alternately powerful and plangent depending on the mood of the song, all the while providing just the right emphasis on the animated text while Johnson accompanies expertly.

Tenor Mark Padmore, whom I just saw perform the title role in a concert version of Handel's "Samson", dominates the early pieces that precede the Liederkreis song cycle. He displays fine technique and clear German diction in his performances, though Schumann's juvenilia are not nearly as resonant as his later work. To my ears, the high points of this portion are "Der Fischer", a somewhat melodramatic duet between Padmore and Maltman based on a poem by Goethe, and "Erinnerung", which flows masterfully over the slight lyrics provided by Jacobi's memory poem. The third section of songs is made up of Schumann rarities beginning with bass-baritone Jonathan Lemalu's touching performance of "Dem rotten Röslein gleicht mein Lieb" based on Robert Burns' "My love's like a red, red rose". His voice has a booming quality tempered by a genuine feel for the songs from the energetic "Der frohe Wandersmann" to the choral pieces, "Die rote Hanne" and Der deutcher Rhein". He especially shines on "Trost im Gesang", a stately ballad for a traveling knight. With his stentorian, bell-like tones, this rising New Zealand-born Samoan singer sounds even more like a native German than the comparatively experienced Maltman and Padmore. The comprehensive booklet written by Johnson tends to meander quite a bit about the history of the songs, though it is worth reviewing as you listen.

Marston Does it Again - and Again.......2002-03-13

Ward Marston has developed an amazing ability to bring old recordings back to life. The Gadski collections - there are two of them on his label - are amazing preservations of one of the great but neglected dramatic sopranos of the first 50 years of the 20th century. Listeners brought up on modern sound will have trouble with the surface noise; but learn to listen beyond it. Nobody sings like this today.

terrible sound quality.......2002-01-05

Although this CD has its place as a historic recording of Johanna Gadski, the sound quality is so terrible it is practically impossible to even evaluate Gadski's voice. If you buy this CD, do it only to have a recording of hers in your collection. DO NOT buy this CD for the great repertoire on it. It is not something you will listen to for enjoyment when wanting to hear beautiful music.

An excellent preservation of a remarkable voice........1998-09-23

Here is the "Golden Age" dramatic soprano, captured at her best in excerpts from the German and Italian operas in which she excelled, with some truly exquisite recordings of songs thrown in for good measure. This long-neglected artist has finally achieved the recognition she has so long-since deserved.
