Josh Groban fans who caught the singer's 2004 Closer tour would no doubt take note of Lucia Micarelli, who was the violinist and concertmaster for Groban. Like her boss, who also is executive producer of Music From A Farther Room, Micarelli is a young, attractive, and talented player who has the classical training, but who is also enchanted with pop music. Also like her boss, her strain of classical crossover works thanks to tasteful accompaniment, in this case from arranger/composer Paul Schwartz. The smartly chosen program of material comes from such varied catalogs as David Bowie and Rogers and Hart. Micarelli's playing is emotional without being overreaching, assertive when called upon, and nuanced. When she does go over-the-top pop on Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody," it's brief but fun; when she navigates Piazzolla's "Oblivion" she draws upon the song's passion more than its technical requisites. This is a debut with likeable pizzazz, coming in a genre not often enough known for it. -- Tad Hendrickson

Album Description

For anyone who has attended Josh Groban's phenomenal live show, you will have undoubtedly had the pleasure of seeing and hearing his lead violinist, Lucia Micarelli. Lucia came to Josh's tour after appearing with the Trans- Siberian Orchestra playing arenas across the U.S. in 2003. With the close of the second leg of Josh's tour, Lucia is recording her debut album in New York and London with producer Paul Schwartz. Musical selections will range from the works of composers Ravel and Ennio Morricone to David Bowie.

5 out of 5 stars Nice CD.......2007-07-15

This is one of my favorite CDs in my collection. I saw her play in person, and Live is much, much better then the CD.

4 out of 5 stars Music from a Farther Room.......2007-05-22

I heard Lucia Micarelli during a 2007 Josh Groban concert. Her live solo performance in addition to her backgrounds for Groban were mesmerizing. I purchased this album to see if it was as enjoyable as her live work, and I was not disappointed. Micarelli performs a good mix of classical and pop pieces. My favorite tracks on the album are Smarkland, Meditation, Lady Grinning Soul, Portrait, and Nocturne/Bohemian Rhapsody.

5 out of 5 stars relaxation.......2007-05-13

This CD is very well done. I was familiar with old favorites and delighted with new songs. I would like to hear more of the rock songs preformed by her. I think she's got a lot of talent and could possibly do well with the rock songs on a future album.

5 out of 5 stars amazing.......2007-05-07

Lucia has power in her playing. I think that she shouldn't be allowed to play violin this good. Her raw talent is conveyed in every song. She doesn't just stick to classical, as the accompaniment music isn't just strings. I wished she had played a little more in Bohemian Rhapsody. I saw her in concert with Josh Groban and I knew I had to purchase this CD. Lucia is an inspiration and her love for the violin cannot be contained.

5 out of 5 stars Talented violinist.......2007-03-29

When I saw and heard Lucia Micarelli perform with Josh Groban at a recent concert, I was so impressed with her talent, that I immediately went online to see what music of hers was available. Every item on her CD is wonderful, and I'm looking forward to her next CD.

          This is pretty, but slower than most of the other British Light Music CDs.

          If you are looking for incidental music used in Monty Python's Flying Circus. Or the theme songs from Sunrise Semester or Captain Kangaroo, etc... Or Lounge Music. There are other British Light Music CDs on Amazon that have lots of these tracks.

          5 out of 5 stars What a find!.......2003-07-29

          I just found this album and am totally enchanted. What wonderful music and beautifully performed. Charm, sweetness, still as good as I remember his work from decades ago. I'll be collecting a lot more of these albums. Can't recommend more highly to those who enjoy light orchestral works.

          5 out of 5 stars Evoke The Spirit........2001-11-20

          John Wilson and The BBC Concert Orchestra do a stellar job performing the 17 pieces by Mr. Coates. The selections are eclectic, each evocative of a different period of time in twentieth-century England. This is a most enjoyable CD for any one who appreciates the works of one of England's finest composers of light classical music.

          5 out of 5 stars Wilson rescues and revives light music from a bygone era........2001-04-19

          Just when I was beginning to regard the music of Eric Coates as a special pleasure now sealed off in a time warp only available to those with long memories and old recordings, along comes this splendid ASV release. Not only is the recording quality as bright and fresh as the morning dew, but the conductor is a mere 25 years old. John Wilson rescues and revives this light music from a bygone era with full confidence, perfect aplomb and total understanding. He is currently preparing a complete edition of the works of Eric Coates.

          Older listeners with older recordings need not worry about duplicating items already in their collections. Most of the items here receive their first CD or LP listing, and some receive their first ever recording. Nothing, however, suggests there has been a scraping of the bottom of the barrel. Listen to any track, and every cadence, modulation, harmonic progression and nuance will evoke a distinctly English nostalgia. Of all the items, I find that "I Sing To You" stays longest in my memory.

                I heard this Cd from a broadcast at Radio Universidad (University of Puerto Rico-Río Piedras Campus) These title talk about freedom,the anguish the joy and sorrows of human beings. Matlubeh performs every song with an ethereal, haunting and evocative tone, although we don't understand the language her voice its a charming wave that fixes on our minds, and words really means, its music for the unconscious mind the one that really talks. Samarkand a land unknown at this corner of the world, a land of mystery and struggle emerge like a flower from the past. I highly recomend these title, here you can find rejoice, meditation, a sanctuary with no boundaries at all, a space to the within.

                I heard this cd from a broadcast at Radio Universidad (University of Puerto Rico- Río Piedras Campus)it resembles me all the anguish, the freedom, the joys and sorrows of human beings. These title talk about the struggle of the people of Samarkand, a land not really known at this corner, a land of mystery. Matlubeh performs a haunting, ethereal and evocative tone in every song that touches the hart, although we don't understand the language, the charming wave fixes on our minds the meaning of words without its knowledge, its music for the unconscious mind, the one that really talks. I know you can find here a space for meditation,and rejoice a sanctuary with no boundaries at all. I highly recomend these shortcut to the within.
