5 out of 5 stars Wyndham Hill .......2007-03-09

I have the first five of the Winter Solstice CD's by Wyndam Hill artists. They are all beautiful and so peaceful to listen to. A Winter's Solstice, Vol 5 is just as good as the rest. I look forward to purchasing Vol 6 later this year.

her offertory

by Kerrie Lynn Robinson White
(Thursday, September 30, 2004)

the utmost gift of self
shining-forth reception
for utmost gifts
true love beseeching
at last in sight
brinkmanship on the line



(Inspired in part by the photograph on this page, artist is to be found and identified, and Jim Brickman's "Joy to the World" from the A Winter's Solstice V compact disc.)

(Note Regarding Brinkmanship and the Cold War: Secretary of state John Foster Dulles distrusted the Soviet Union during the cold war in spite of its softer line at one point. In January 1956, he told the American people that the United States had been on the brink of war several times. "If you are scared to go to the brink, you are lost," Dulles warned. The use of "brinkmanship" had become part of U.S. policy. Source: World Book Multimedia Encyclopedia, 2003 Edition, Version 7.1.1, © 2002 World Book, Inc. and its licensors.)

I pray for peace, in the Name of Jesus.

5 out of 5 stars Windham Hill Winter Soltice 5.......2004-12-06

Not your ordinary Christmas Music CD. What a nice change to the typical Holiday music selections. The whole collection is very moving. If you want a change of pace try this one!

5 out of 5 stars Best of the series.......2001-12-09

This is the best of the Winter's Solstice series thus far. The songs are traditional enough to evoke the season, and the arrangements are unique enough that you can listen to this all year long.

5 out of 5 stars More Windham Hill Holiday Sounds.......2000-09-21

In what appears to be the penultimate Winter's Solstice collection, the Windham Hill artists continue presenting light and subtle arrangements of holiday songs, some familiar and some not. The presentation is pleasant, lilting, and enjoyable.

If you happen to develop a craving for Christmas music in July, you could lisen to this CD without feeling self-conscious. It has a lightness about it that would not be out of place in the summer.

    5 out of 5 stars A truly master still forgotten.......2004-05-21

    Louis Kentner was a pioneer in Liszt's music and Bartok too. His recordings about Liszt in the middle of the sixties were a must reference for everyone. Still now, his sound is very original, and together with Sandor and Nyireghihazi this trio are the superlative level im pianism in the first half of XX century.
    This recordings has a lot of virtues.
    First at all the Bartok no. 3 is extraordinary. Historically it's a collector item because it was the European premiere of this concerto.
    The recording is widely worthy. Boult conducts Bartok with authority and a very close rapport with Kentner.
    If you want to get the four best recordings of the third concerto, just try with this one, Sandor Ormandy from the forties and Sandor Gielen from the fifties, and finally one very hard to find recording with Anne Fisher and Fricsay from 1955.
    Listening his Liszt you'll find a convincing and powerful color. Kentner is not well known in United States, because he decided to live in England, but if you are able to get all what you can from this original artist, just do it.
