5 out of 5 stars Moravian songs, via Janacek, Godar, Bittova and Skampa.......2006-05-09

This is a unique recording of Janacek's transcriptions of Moravian folk songs. Originally for piano and voice, they have been transcribed by Slovak composer Vladimir Godar for string quartet and (occasionally) three-voice male chorus. Here they are performed by renowned Czech singer and violinist Iva Bittova, accompanied by the Skampa Quartet and chorus. The effect is not so much of classical liede, but of authentic eastern European "popular" songs - the sonority of the string quartet adds to this in no small part. Janacek would be proud.

2 out of 5 stars Skampa Quartet is great - the singer... yikes.......2005-07-28

I honestly did not know what I was getting myself into when I bought this CD. I love Janacek, I love folk songs... how could I go wrong? Iva Bittova! I was concerned that she would have a 50yr old woobly voice, but instead what exists is a thin VERY nasal tone... perhaps she should be singing traditional Bulgarian music! The voice is expressive, just ugly.
The recording quality is not very good, either. On many of the tracks, Iva seems to be muffled and in the background of the recording.
Really - dont waste your time and money, unless you really would just like to have a recording of over 50 Janacek songs.

      Customer Reviews:

      4 out of 5 stars Enjoyable.......2005-08-12

      The theme of this cd makes it fun to listen to, and the liner notes are as entertaining as any of the pieces. A lengthy timeline lists humorous events concerning royalty throughout history, which is actually pretty witty. Another good feature of the album is the amount of music it contains: 28 tracks (75'18) of good recordings, for the most part. All but a few of the ensembles and artists are top-notch, and the repertoire spans enough time that the listener won't get bored listening to baroque for too long.

      4 out of 5 stars Michael's review.......2003-01-02

      The selection of music is great. There are a couple of the cuts that are not the best recordings I have ever heard. But most were well worth the listening. And please don't let that comment I made scare you away from buying it. It is lively, fun, and the title explains it all. It is a mix of just what you would expect the word ROYALTY to invoke in a Classical Music compilation. I was expecting a gold gilded horse drawn carriage to appear in full suit waiting just outside the front door of my home. I love it.

      5 out of 5 stars wonderful.......2000-05-31
