Few bands of the 1960s retained as much a sense of the roots of rock and roll as did Creedence Clearwater Revival. Their music is rife with country, rockabilly, and R&B influences, a combination that produced several hit singles--most of which are present on this collection. These include "I Heard It through the Grapevine," "Lodi," "Up Around the B ," "Who'll Stop the Rain," and of course "Bad Moon Rising."

3 out of 5 stars Not very good.......2006-07-04

Considering the bulky nature of the W600i, a belt holster isn't nearly as good as a bag. The picture looks better than the actual item.

Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars 5 Stars Discounting Recording Problems.......2007-05-14

The content is terrific. This CD is one of a series of classical music masters. The only problem is that tracks 38 and later have a lot of distortion/static. I returned thinking it was a problem with the disc, but the replacement disc had the same problem. If not for that, I would have rated 5 stars.

4 out of 5 stars Perfect for homeschooling........2007-01-29

The narratives are short enough to keep your children's attention, the music may be short in some instances but if you're playing it in the background for exposure- it doesn't matter. The price is great and the cheapest you'll find in addition to the 4 for 3 deal. We have all 18 of these cds and don't regret it!

4 out of 5 stars In Words & Music.......2000-07-24

I have found this recording series to be a very helpful introductory teaching device for my young children. It gives a brief history of the composer and samples of the musical style.

1 out of 5 stars Don't blink.......2000-05-03

The music on this CD is all wonderful, and it's a perfect CD toget - if you have the attention span of a soap bubble! Thisis a "sampler" with narrative and very few of thepieces listed are actually played in their entirety. Even pieces which are short to begin with are excerpted. We are given a whole minute of the Hallelujah Chorus and a rousing 45 seconds from the overture from "Ezio". This is a teaching CD which gives some fine examples to support the narration - but they are very short examples. A few bars here and there is all you get.

I was totally disappointed with the holster. I used it for about a week and the belt clip broke off while putting it on my belt. I guess you get what you pay for.

    This holster-type cell phone clip is a great value. They matched my phone model exactly and the product is of sturdy construction. It's nothing particularly sexy in design but if you are like me and prefer this type of slimline approach to pouches or adhesive backed clips, it provides an excellent solution. [...]

4 out of 5 stars 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.

4 out of 5 stars 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.

4 out of 5 stars 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]

5 out of 5 stars 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.

5 out of 5 stars 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.

I believe the cost was 1 cent but shipping was ~$4. The holster is cheap but what would you expect for the price.
So far I haven't lost my phone so THAT's a good thing.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Service and Value.......2007-01-10

This holster is made of a soft plastic which prevents it from snapping and braking. It was well worth getting. Cingular sells a hard plastic version for $21.00 that brakes every 3 months. Very good product, and excellent price..

    5 out of 5 stars A wonderful offering........2007-08-03

    There may be the individual recording made by others - Gilels, Rubinstein, Arrau - of a particular work which might be preferred but as a collection of the Brahms piano works, this set has to take the prize.

    The quality of recording is high - here I must sadly observe that the date of recording offers little guide to the quality thereof - and there is a remarkable consistency of piano sound despite the three years spanning the recording dates. One has to listen very attentively to detect which of the four Ballades was recorded monaurally; a strange anachronism in the 'sixties.

    As another reviewer has suggested, the accompanying notes in french and german do provide interestingly different perspectives; what I find surprising and more than a little irritating is that beyond a passing (and, seemingly, grudging) mention, no biographical nor any other information is provided about the pianist. Julius Katchen was a consummate musician, very highly regarded in his day but whose achievements (like those of Witold Malcuzynski) are not so well remembered now. This set serves to redress the balance and I recommend it highly.

    As an irrelevant aside, some fifty years ago and quite by chance, I found myself sitting next to Katchen on an aircraft. I remember he had unusually expressive hands; a useful attribute as the noise level of a DC3 cabin was not conducive to easy conversation! At the time, I was struggling to learn the G minor Rhapsody and he was very generous with his support. A charming man who prematurely died in 1969.

    Buy this set - you won't regret it.

    2 out of 5 stars I disagree with the consensus here.......2007-07-11

    I was disappointed by this set and would not recommend it. It's great that all of Brahms' piano works are included here and the boxed set includes some difficult to find works (like those Op. 21 variation sets) as well as the better known and wonderful later piano pieces and the Op. 39 Waltzes.

    The problem is that Katchen's performances are flawed and often unpleasant. The worst problem is that he bangs the keys a lot. Fortissimo passages are ideally not supposed to be noisy; they are intended to be loud and forceful without being unpleasant. It's a key distinction that Katchen fails to realize. I also think that Katchen's technique is a bit patchy. He blurs the passagework and there is a lack of both accuracy and delicacy in the fast passages. To take an example, the Op. 76 set is marred by both of these problems: a lack of accuracy and a tendency to bang on the keyboard. I also found many of the passages that didn't suffer from these problems to be interpretationally uninteresting (the slow parts of the Paganini Variations, Bk II are undistinguished, to take an example). Big thumbs down.

    I did some direct comparison of sets to the Katchen performances and in every case Katchen was far inferior.

    Take the Op. 39 Waltzes: Leon Fleisher's old recording is wonderful and much more sensitive and interesting than Katchen.

    I also listened to Radu Lupu's recording of the Opp. 117-119 pieces (THAT is a wonderful recording - if you are looking for a superb recording of Brahms piano music, get that one and save yourself the aggravation of the Katchen set) and it's simply no contest.

    I also sampled the terrific Op. 79 Rhapsodies and the Paganini Variations as played by a favorite pianist of mine, the lesser-known French pianist Nicholas Angelich, and Katchen's sloppy and undirected interpretations pales before the versions by a "non-superstar" pianist.

    So while I admit I haven't listened to every portion of the Katchen set, I found every reason to avoid it when compared to some alternatives available.

    5 out of 5 stars Don't hesitate to get this set.......2007-07-04

    It's a good thing I waited to write this until I'd heard these CDs a few times. I would have been guilty of understatement. Katchen's work grows on me in much the same way Brahms' music itself does. It is rich in nuance and insight, and never fails to please.

    I'll confess, I bought this set to fill the gaps in my piecemeal collection. What a delightful surprise to find my "stopgap" set more than holds its own against recordings by the likes of Richter, Rubinstein and Gilels. To help the reader overcome any reluctance I offer a few comments on the few "downsides" mentioned by others:

    Yes, Katchen does play fast, but not always, and certainly not out of inability to hold the listener's attention through more artful means. Katchen's track times are often slower than Rubinstein's or even Gilels'; but where the spirit moves him, he can go like a rocket. He's generally fastest in the earlier works, where a case can be made for playing them with youthful ardor; Katchen does this to a T. This applies to the first 2 sonatas, the Paganini variations (why would anything associated with Paganini lack splash and dazzle?) and to a much lesser extent, parts of the Handel variations. The main thing is, it works. The very few places where I felt Katchen was rushing the music are heavily outnumbered by places where the added energy seems to "fit" like a glove.

    Yes, in an exhaustive set you inevitably endure the "bottom of the barrel." I'm surprised how little of this 6-CD set strikes me as anything less than indispensible. Every track is worth hearing. Katchen has been surpassed here and there, but he doesn't put in a bad performance in the whole batch.

    Yes, the recordings are more than 40 years old. They will not satisfy the most jaded audiophile (there's not quite the "presence" of a good recording today). But they are amazingly clean and lifelike for their age (even the 3 tracks that are mono). They sound noticeably better than the popular Rubinstein recordings of equal vintage. At first I thought I heard a touch of bass-heaviness, but now I just think Katchen gives us a strong, clear bass line. Once again, it works. The sound is simply not a problem for a normal listener.

    Finally, there's the small stuff. Getting the CDs out of their tight-fitting sleeves without putting your fingerprints on the playing surface is well-nigh impossible, unless you give in and apply a letter opener to solve the problem once and for all. Is that any reason not to get this much wonderful music at such a low price? London has even revived the old practice of offering different program notes in different languages, so that multilingual readers can benefit from more than one set of comments. All around it's a winner!

    5 out of 5 stars Superb interpretations by Katchen.......2006-11-16

    Katchen's performace throughout this collection are excellent.Brahms integrates many of Schumann's,Bach's and Beethovens compositional ideas into his own works.He is a master of the appoggiatura(suspension of the dominant chord).And the ghosts of Bach,Schumann,and Beethoven appear at intervals throughout this collection of his piano works.The VARIATIONS ON AN ORIGINAL THEME is an ethereal experience,and the Op.09 VARIATIONS ON A THEME BY SCHUMANN, composed after his death,Brahms's pathos,especialy in the slower variations, make you aware of his sadness of Schumann passing, as there is vivid sense of despair and remorse you can hear throughout.It is well documented the profound influence Shumann had on Brahms's compositional process.OP.76 is a passionate performance by Katchen.You also have short piano works culminated in Op116,Op 117,Op.118,which includes the great masterpiece in Ebminor,and Op.119.The Pagganini Variations,Variations on a theme by Haydn,the Ballads Op. 10.And both volumes of the HUNGARIAN DANCES,the 2 Rhapsody's,and VARATIONS ON A THEME BY HANDEL.It quite remarkable that such music could be created by such a young man in the astonishing Sonatas,OP.1,OP.2,and OP.5.The slow movements in all three sonates are very inspiring,and heart fealt.It makes you glad to be alive in order to hear such remarkable Genuine Leather Case for Nokia 6015i/6016i/6019i

    5 out of 5 stars The engaging poetry!.......2006-12-19

    One of the maxim exponents of Chopin in the first decades of the Century was undeniably Arthur Rubinstein. He knew to create - if I may - the perfect link between image and the Polish sentiment ; although the pioneer in this sense was Ignaz Jan Paderewski. Lodz was his birthplace and if Chopin was a self exiled in his historical moment., Rubinstein must have taken into account in September 1 1939.

    He nourished the last traces of a dying romanticism - as well as Rachmaninov did it - after his forced exile from URSS. His golden sound was far from the tragic approach given by of Alfred Cortot, for instance. He played the piano according the canons of the artist of the Century XIX, expression and sentimentality, hovered by an ardent nationalism that still inflamed the poetic imagination in some corners of the world, specially in the enormous immigrant wave who chose different places in America in order to search a promised land.

    His direct phrasing without intellectual or philosophical approaches deserved to him a special name in the Western hemisphere.

    He is now part of the keyboard's legend as well as one of the Chopin`s champions.

    5 out of 5 stars Still beautiful to me.......2005-11-04

    As a piano student during the 1950s and early 1960s, I remember that there were "knock down drag out" arguments between the "pro-Rubinstein" factions and the "anti-Rubinstein" factions of the classical piano performing world. I was made keenly aware of the aforesaid because my piano instructor was a "dye-hard" member of the "anti-Rubinstein" faction. Rebelliously, I purchased all of the Rubinstein recordings that I could get my little untalented hands on including this recording of Chopin's Waltzes. I remember loving them at the time as I still do now that I've restored this recording on CD to my collection.
    Rubinstein's performance in this recording really touches my very soul. Upon hearing this recording again, I'm reminded of how much I loved them almost 50 years ago. Whatever one may call his playing (eccentric, sentimental, syrupy, etc.) it certainly has retained its appeal to me--as a young person or now as an older person. (Note: Rubinstein particularly plays the "sad little" waltzes in minor keys exquisitely!)
    If you want to hear a master (at least to me) of Chopin playing some wonderful works, buy this disc.

    1 out of 5 stars barcode piano for barcode lovers everywhere!.......2005-04-23

    i must repeat myself over and over again.STAY AWAY FROM RUBINSTEIN.his playing is just too eccentric its as if he was abducted by aliens and had chopins works downloaded into his brain.what you get is a sort of robotic chemistry with a dire attempt to sound artistic.
    these high reviews do baffle me to oblivion.

    5 out of 5 stars Artur Rubinstein great recording of Chopinýs Bolero, Waltzes.......2004-01-05

    Artur Rubinstein great recording of Chopin's Bolero and 14 Waltzes
    By Peter Dietrich, president, Chopin Society of New England

    Artur Rubinstein's performance of the fourteen waltzes seems to be among the definitive versions. This stereo recording from a one day session in June of 1963, issued on BMG in the Rubinstein collection volume 47, and the earlier version first issued on LP RCA Victor LM-1892 recorded in December, 1953 and issued on BMG Rubinstein collection volume 29, equals in sound and profound understanding the two great versions by Alexander Brailowsky (1896-1976) recorded in the early fifties on LP for RCA Victor LM-1082 as well as the stereo recording from the early sixties issued on Sony Music SBK 46346 in 1990.

    The four recordings are milestones of the classical waltzes. Their interpretations have achieved expert fluidity with grace and elegance of nobility. As Robert Schumann remarked "should be danced at least by countesses." To the above recordings I will add Dinu Lipatti's recording issued by EMI in the Great Recordings of the Century series. My opinion is based on hearing a great number of outstanding as well as good performances through more than fifty years. I will just list several additional names from my collection who have recorded fourteen waltzes: 1) Robert Lortat (1930), 2) Alfred Cortot (1934 and 1943), 3) Edward Kilenyi (1952), 4) Moura Lympany (1959), 5) Witold Malcuzynski (1959), 6) Regina Smendzianka (1959 and 1961), 7) Samson Francois (1964), 8) Stefan Askenase (1964), 9) Adam Harasiewicz (1965), 10) Tamas Vassary (1966); pianists who have recorded nineteen waltzes: 1) Augustin Anievas (1970), 2) Geoges Cziffra (1979), 3) Claudio Arrau (1980 - several of the waltzes are played too slow), 4) Vladimir Ashkenazy (1984), 5) Lidia Grychtolowna (1989), 6) Istvan Szekely (1992), 7) Garrick Ohlsson (1996 - 20 waltzes in this recording) 8) Jerzy Sterczynski (1996 - 23 waltzes, which will be discussed in the future).

    The famous Polish poet Kazimierz Wierzynski author of the "Life and Death of Chopin" (1949) makes the following observation. "Chopin's Waltzes have little or nothing in common with the atmosphere of the ballroom. Niecks calls them Tanzdichtungen (dance poems). How does Rubinstein play the Chopin Waltzes? Surely, their worldliness and elegance are particularly suited to this worldly and elegant pianist whose incomparable virtuosity goes hand in hand with his unique feeling for Chopin. Without in the least sentimentalizing Chopin, Rubinstein fully renders his warmth: he is the ideal interpreter of the waltzes in which tenderness is so subtly blended with sparkle, playfulness and deep emotion."

    Other Chopin works included in this compilation are the four impromptus recorded in 1964 and the Bolero recorded in 1962. Harvey Sachs, author of Rubinstein's biography published by Grove Press, New York, 1995, wrote the following notes for this compilation: "The 1964 version of the Impromptus, heard here is typical of the beautifully poised, yet deeply poetic Chopin recordings that Rubinstein made in his seventies as a sort of summa of his interpretations of the music of his great compatriot." However, the glory of this compilation is the Bolero in A Major, Op. 19. Until the Rubinstein recording in 1962 when he was almost 75 years old, this work was "obscure" Chopin, almost completely forgotten and recorded very seldom as well as terribly underrated. Despite the obscurity of the work for such a long time, there are several recordings of it in existence. I will list the notable recordings from my collection according to their release:
    1) Adam Harasiewicz, Philips (1972); 2) Arnaldo Cohen, Dischi Ricordi, LP (1978); 3) Nikita Magaloff, Philips (1979); 4) Vladimir Ashkenazy, London/Decca (1987); 5) Georges Cziffra, EMI (1987); 6) Nelly Ben-Or, Meridian Records (1989); 7) Idil Biret, Naxos (1993); 8) Garrick Ohlsson, Arabesque, vol. 8 (1997); 9) Emil von Saur (recorded 1940) Arbiter (1998); 10) Anatol Ugorski, Chopin Complete Edition DG, vol. 7 (1999).

    All the above recordings, although inspired performances and technically excellent, do not reveal the hidden beauty of the dance, as does Artur Rubinstein in his performance. Mr. Rubinstein unhurried tempos and magical play with the pedal plus his affinity for Spanish music brings this work to interpretative splendid heights unknown until his recording and since. These five star performances are highly recommended for every music lover.

    5 out of 5 stars The Great Chopin Master.......2003-07-26

    This CD is superb. It shows the best of Rubinstein's Chopin.He did this CD with so much clearness and feeling. Rubinstein ends the CD with the little known Bolero. I reccomend it a lot.

    Electronics ll surely love this CD. Rest assured, arpeggios abound, and syncopated motifs propel the music forward.

    Of the two concertos, the Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists (premiered in 2000) is probably the one that will compel people to purchase this album. A concerto for a percussion instrument is a bit of an oddity. And this concerto, scored for nine timpani played by two timpanists, is pretty much what you would expect. It is intense, it is propulsive and it is aggressive. Glass doesn't seem too keen on exploring the subtleties of the timpani here. The music begins at a good clip with pounding timpani at forte, banging out the movement's theme in 5/4 time. Although, the themes employed by Glass vary in their intensity, the timpani part itself continues its aggressive, perhaps primitive, pounding until the conclusion of the movement. Now how do you compose a slow movement for nine timpani? Not an easy feat, but Glass pulls it off the (for the most part) by composing a processional that gradually builds in intensity to a climax, which then fades away. The finale of the concerto is similar to the opening movement. Lots of aggressive, percussive playing is to be found here. The syncopated opening theme of this movement, to me, has a decidedly Nordic feel to it. In short, this concerto is fantastic and will not disappoint percussion enthusiasts or admirers of Glass' style, just as long as they don't expect this piece to be something it is not. It's a timpani concerto.

    Although this CD will be purchased for the timpani concerto, I think after a couple of listenings, the more reflective cello concerto (premiered in 2001) will prove equally interesting; and possibly more so. The mood of the first two movements is somber, with the rhythmic intensity of the timpani concerto nowhere to be found. However, the music is no less fascinating, with Glass' distinctive harmonic modulations and characteristic orchestration. The themes themselves are weightier and more substantial than the ones from Glass' earlier days, but repetition is still an important element to this concerto. The slow movement is especially lovely. This movement does last 14 minutes, for some reason, but is none the worse for it, as the cello's expressive recurring theme never gets stale. Things heat up a bit more in the finale, with the previously released violin concerto coming to mind. Julian Lloyd Weber, does well navigating through the sixteenth-note-laden solo part, while the percussion section, especially the castanet player, propels the music forward with repetitive rhythmic ideas. My only quibble with this piece is the ending, which is very abrupt, as if Glass was unplugged or blew a fuse in the midst of his syncopating. However, Glass' tendency to conclude with sudden, harmonically bizarre, codas is one of his "trademarks." Like a car going down a hill with no brakes, Glass' music has no problem sustaining its forward momentum; however its halt isn't pretty.

    Despite this, this disc has my full recommendation. The reflective cello concerto contrasts nicely against the assertive timpani concerto. This is fascinating music that will appeal to all (except those who take themselves too seriously) and deserves a place in the library of any acquirer of recent classical music.

    5 out of 5 stars This is my story why I bought and fell in love with this album........2005-12-26

    I still remember the incredible sensation I felt one night listening to Philip Glass' "Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists and Orchestra" for the first time on my car radio.

    It happend about a year ago. After dining at Hooters in Santa Monica with some of my drumline friends, I hopped back into my car, turned on the engine, and all the sudden, the sound of timpani filled the car! I mean LOTS and LOTS of it! Listening to the orchestral accompaniment, I knew it was a concerto piece... a very modern concerto piece. The music was simply mesmerizing, with the orchestra playing rather refreshingly consonant chords, while the drums were struck all over the place, at times arpeggiating, and at times singing the melody. It either had to be a soloist playing so many drums, or even two playing them.

    I simply had to know what this strange new piece was, so I listened throughout my whole drive on the dark highways and freeways back home. Lasting pretty long, I knew I must have listened from the first movement. As the music progressed, there was a slower movement, the followed by a huge cadenza featuring the timpani, before another fast movement. By the time I reached home, the music came to an exhilirating close, and listened like an eager student... "Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists and Orchestra by Philip Glass ("Philip Glass? Really?", the soloists being Jonathan Haas and Evelyn Glennie ("Evelyn Glennie? I know her!"), with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic under Gerald Schwartz."

    I never hesistated by buy the album featuring this work. It only took days for me to find the right album with the right performers (well, this IS the only performance so far, being a premiere recording).

    As a percussionist (with timpani being my favorite instrument), I bought this album just for the Timpani piece... obviously. Based on the booklet, the soloists Jonathan Haas (dubbed the "Paganini of Timpani") and Evelyn Glennie (probably THE best percussionist in the world), played on seven drums each, so that's FOURTEEN total! The work did prove a challenge to the performers, but the recording came out very well.

    If you love timpani, then you'll absolutely love this work. Guaranteed! I truly cherish the work, and I am hoping to play it in the future to show my obsession with my favorite percussion instrument.

    5 out of 5 stars Great!.......2005-07-01

    Excellent service, as always. They seem to have all the stuff you can't find anywhere else.

    5 out of 5 stars A must for all percussionists and music lovers.......2004-11-13

    In listening to the first movement of the Concerto Fantasy for Two Timpanists, I was completely drawn into the play of these two brilliant percussionists, Evelyn Glennie and Jonathan Haas. The very sound of fourteen timpani in concert together with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra is just amazing and from the start makes you sit up and take notice. The play between the strings and timpani is fantastic in the first movement. In this work the listener will get a true appreciation for the beautiful and powerful tone of the timpani. This is especially true in listening to the Cadenza where Glennie and Haas coax and reveal a variety of different tones and colors from their timpani, the voice of the timpani is revealed here. Movement III is the marvelous reward and bright payoff off of the piece, with the timpanists playing in harmony with the full orchestra once again. Featuring the timpani as a solo instrument in this context is fresh and very different. I hope to have the opportunity to see and feel a performance of this concerto in the future, especially if performed by Glennie and Haas.

      3 out of 5 stars Huge disappointment.......2006-01-21

      I first heard Bromberg's music on a friend's album, and was wowed by I Will Not Be Your Fool. Bought the cassette and listened to it for years. But now its started to show its age and I decided to buy the CD

      Well, two CDs actually. They showed up yesterday and I eagerly opened them and gave a listen. Oh my. First of all, Fool has been edited, and the ending is not the same as the one on the cassette. Several lesser songs have been added so they could make this a 2 CD set. And there is something different about several of the songs, as if they substituted a different band for this recording (The cover says no, but it sounds quite different to me).

      I'm giving it 3 stars because I still love many of the songs, and if you've never heard Bromberg, you'll probably enjoy. But I'm gonna trade these in at my used record store, and see if I can find a used copy of the cassette. In the meantime, buyer beware!

      5 out of 5 stars Good stuff!.......2004-07-22

      Nobody's given this album five stars, so I will. Another reviewer wrote "timeless". That's a great summation. I first bought this album as a nineteen y/o kid in 1977. I was in the Navy and read a review in Playboy magazine. (Hey, what else does a sailor have to do?) Since then this album, both the Live and Studio studio sides, have been on my favorites list. 'Nough said.

      4 out of 5 stars One of the best and most timeless........2004-04-09

      Great album. It makes you want to get up and get those happy feet going. I saw him at St. Bonaventure University in the late 70's. One of the best concerts I have ever seen.

      Why only four stars? Not only did the nitwits break up a great double album, but Amazon doesn't let you sample the songs added to each of the cd's. It makes me think that I should just buy the software that allows me to copy vinyl LP's to cd instead of trying the additions.

      5 out of 5 stars Chopin's mature Polonaises by Artur Rubinstein.......2004-05-20

      Chopin's mature Polonaises by Artur Rubinstein
      By Peter Dietrich, President of the Chopin Society of New England, Inc.

      Three great and famous recordings of Chopin's mature Polonaises by Artur Rubinstein. It all started in June 1952. I was walking on Washington Street in Boston, Massachusetts and while looking at a display window of a music store I noticed an LP record, LM 1205 (which I still have in my library) of Chopin Polonaises, vol. 1. I entered the store and purchased that record for the price of $5.95 not realizing at all that I was holding in my hands not only one of the best and most convincing recordings that Rubinstein had ever made together with vol. 2 LMI 52 Polonaises, but unquestionably the greatest recording of the Chopin Polonaises by any other pianist of the 20th century.
      This recording of the polonaises from the 1950-1951 season was the second set recorded by Artur Rubinstein when he was in his absolute prime (aged 63-64) capable of the most convincing interpretations of these heroic works. His unhurried tempos, his magical use of the pedal has achieved musical clarity undreamed of by any other pianist before and since. He was very fortunate to get an excellent sound from RCA engineers despite being recorded in mono only and the two records despite their fifty-two years in use still sound beautiful.
      The present reissue I am reviewing of all three different recordings is from the complete Rubinstein 94 disc set edition which I purchased in 1999 and the digitally remastered edition of vol. 28 sounds even better than the LP edition of 1952.
      The earlier set of the 8 polonaises recorded in December of 1934 and January-February of 1935(first issued on 78-RPM records) is in the present edition reissued in vol. 4. These are already mature performances, particularly Polonaises 5 and 6, which are intense and beautiful and have many qualities of the later recordings. We have to remember that the 78-RPM era was very challenging to every artist because of the rather primitive recording equipment of the time and a limited time for each side of a record. Despite all of the difficulties the achievement is outstanding and it is a joy to listen to Rubinstein's earlier recordings and compare them with the later and perhaps more mature performances and be able to notice the changes in growth of Rubinstein's artistry.
      The 3rd and final set, vol. 48 of the 8 mature polonaises was recorded in Carnegie Hall, New York City, in March of 1964 in stereophonic sound, when Rubinstein was 77 years old. These are also great performances, more mellow and a shade less robust and dramatic than his 1950-51 renditions. They also lack the tremendous intensity and urgency when compared with his 1951 crowning achievement. Almost all the repeats are omitted in the A Major Polonaise, Op. 40, No. 1 while in the C-minor Polonaise, Op. 40, No. 2 all repeats are restored. Personally, I like when all the repeats are included because it makes the work more complete, particularly in the polonaises, because it makes them sound more intense and monumental. All of Chopin's markings are very clear and they should be respected.
      The only regret one may have is why Rubinstein, who was so great and successful in performing Chopin's music, never recorded the earlier Polonaises and the rest of Chopin's known works? Some Chopin scholars have made various statements that outside of the etudes; Chopin's other less known works were not worthy of performing. Completely false! All of Chopin's music is worthy of performance, which has been proven by the younger generation of pianists who have recorded his complete works.
      Rubinstein performed in Boston, Massachusetts at least sixteen times between the mid fifties until his retirement in 1976, not counting his performances with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. I was fortunate and privileged to have attended almost every performance and relished the opportunity of having spoken to the artist on several occasions. In 1965, after his last recording of the polonaises, I asked him if he had recorded all of the polonaises? His answer was "yes." I replied "all?" To this he responded: "From my early years, I loved to play the piano but I hated the practicing. If I had been more willing to work hard, I could have played 100 more pieces of music." Then I asked him about Blackberry 7250/7270/7290 OEM Holster

        1 out of 5 stars Awful.......2005-12-23

        I bought the complete set, so I could get familiar with all of Schubert's piano works. After a couple of weeks, I threw all the disks away. There are much finer artists who bring individuality, verve and style to some of the greatest piano music ever written. Unfortunately, Mr. Kempf is not one of them.

        5 out of 5 stars Beautiful!.......2004-12-25

        I have no complaints about this very reasonably-priced set of Schubert Piano Sonatas. In fact, I liked it so much, I bought Volumes Two and Three. The music is lovely, the recording is excellent. These sonatas are not as intense as Beethoven's, written at about the same time, but are in some ways more beautiful; they certainly create a more relaxing musical atmosphere. Though the music has its moments of tension, these interludes are usually resolved in a flowing melody or phrase. I would recommend this set to anyone who enjoys Schubert's music. It's nice to find the old Vox Boxes on CD. It is also enlightening to compare this set to the superlative Wilhelm Kempff's cycle of Schubert sonatas.

        4 out of 5 stars Schubert Piano Sonatas by Walter Klein.......2003-05-16

        Walter Klein delivers beautiful renditions of the Schubert sonatas in this set of CD's. So much fine music for a real bargain price.

        4 out of 5 stars Complete Schubert , well done, at a Great Value.......2000-03-17

        Franz Schubert's Piano Sonatas have had the great misfortune of being written about the same time as Beethoven's sonatas. Beethoven's are the ne plus ultra of the piano sonata and are justly esteemed by music lovers everywhere. Schubert's sonatas while lacking Beethoven's ruthless logic and frequent virtuosity are, if anything, more beautiful. They unfold at a serene and visionary pace. Walter Klien does a fine job here and this is one of only two complete sets of the Schubert sonatas available (The remaining sonatas are available in the VOX volumes 2 & 3). I prefer Alfred Brendel in this literature, but he has not recorded the complete set. If you like Schubert, then you will not be unhappy with these performances.
