Anyone have the sheet music to "I commit to you".......2006-08-16
I would like to use this song during my wedding but I need the sheet music. Anyone know where I can find it?
Thanks!
I Commit To You.......2003-10-02
I am so happy for Christopher Gaddy for writing such a beautiful song for the Living Single soundtrack. He is a very talented writer and artist and everyone should expect to hear more from this talented gentleman. Okay I'm prejudiced...I know C. Gaddy personally and his work is amazing.
Lyrics for I Commit to you.......2003-08-24
I Commit to You
My love for you has no boundaries
I give you my heart, I give you everything
All I want is forever
You and I as one, you and I as one
With you I feel inspired
To love for a lifetime
And I'm proud to say
On my wedding day
I do, I do
So with this ring
I commit to you
'Til death do us part, that you'll still have my heart
And I know I'll be good to you
I said "I do" to only you
For the rest of my life
My love for you grows endless
'Cause you bring out the best in me
For the rest of my life
Gonna be your wife
And so I do, boy--take my hand
Oh girl, from the depths of my soul
From the bottom of my heart
I need to tell you that I
Love you, I need you
I love you, I need you
For all time
So with this ring
I commit to you
'Til death do us part
That you'll still have my heart
And I know, I'll be good to you
I said "I do" to only you
For the rest of my life
The song was performed by T.C. Carson and Queen Latifah. It was written for executive producer Yvette Lee Bowser by her husband, Kyle. A longer version, performed by Christopher Gaddy and Pamela Bryant, can be found on the Living Single soundtrack.
What happened to TC & Latifah's version?.......2003-08-19
I have held on to a copy of the Living Single wedding that I recorded. I like this version of the song, I commit to you, however, couldn't they have also added T.C.Carson & Queen Latifah's version. I mean that's what we all fell in love with.
My find.......2001-12-26
Every since I saw the episode of the Wedding on living single I wanted to find the song "I commit to you". I recorded that episode and it got recorded over so I was hurt.I spent all morning from 8:05 to now which is 9:43 looking on the for wedding songs. Now I'm in a relationship and it is getting serious and whenever that day comes I want to sing it at my wedding when we exchange rings.

Boskovsky's encyclopedic collection with the Vienna Philharmonic, recorded between 1957 and 1976, is as close to definitive as one is likely to get. There was a special camaraderie between Boskovsky and the Philharmonic--he was a member of the orchestra's violin section for 37 years and conducted their New Year's Day concerts from 1955 until 1979. There was also a special empathy that these performers, as custodians of a tradition going back to its origins, felt for the music of the Strauss family. It comes across quite wonderfully on these mid-price CDs, which have been painstakingly remastered for an edition every collector should have. --Ted Libbey

Superb collection.......2006-03-07
If you love or are just curious about the music of Vienna's Strauss family, this is the box set for you. You need look no further. Willi Boskovsky and the Vienna Philharmonic set the standards for the performance of these sublime waltzes, polkas and marches. The sound is fine, too, even though the recordings are not new. This is, quite simply, a magnificent set. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
Boskovsky and the Strauss Family of Vienna........2003-06-12
A long series of Strauss music recordings conducted by Willi Boskovsky provides the contents of this slender, super-compact box of 6 CDs. Those who collected the original issues should check the contents before jettisoning them, because not everything has been reissued here. I especially regret that the vocal version of "An der schönen blauen Donau" has been omitted.
No combination has ever excelled Willi Boskovsky and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in performing this repertoire. Although the waltzes, polkas, quadrilles, marches and overtures were performed over and over again by these musicians, there is never a hint of workaday routine or staleness to be heard here. Everything seems to unfold naturally. Each item's inherent character is displayed. Tiny nuances and felicities of phrasing and a balance that favors the melody and reduces the accompaniment make these performances inimitable. The performance of "Morgenblätter" seems to provide a tad more excitement and impact than the other 85 items.
The recordings were made between 1960 and 1976. They are studio recordings, not deriving from the famous New Year concerts, and all but the few items from the very earliest year provide excellent sound.

Excellent Music Collection.......2005-12-05
I purchased this CD on iTunes and I love it. Martha's CD collection is very tasteful and the music is great background music. I'm not a big fan of Christmas music sung by pop stars, and so I avoid most modern releases, but this CD is all classical. Particularly love the song sung by II Divo and Placido Domingo. This is a classical album sure to please everyone.
When I played it in my car my I got compliments on it. Way to go Martha!!!
Very Nice and Intimate.......2005-11-14
This is a wonderful CD. I agree with Martha Stewart's notes that this music will be great at a social gathering like a dinner party. I feel this music would work well in an intimate shop or restaurant, but would not work well in a larger retail establishment or a busy restaurant. In my opinion, the softer music would be drowned by the surrounding noise. For those people who like their music "traditional" and "straight forward" this album is beautiful. She has put together a perfect holiday CD. If you this collection and the presentation of the music, I highly suggest looking at John Tesh's Christmas CDs. His music follows a similar style.

For the Thalberg Completist or Collector of Liszt Rarities.......2007-08-02
"The greatest interest... will be without question the simultaneous appearance of two talents whose rivalry at this time agitates the musical world, and is like the indecisive balance between Rome and Carthage. Messrs. Liszt and Thalberg will take turns at the piano" - an advertisement in the Gazette Musicale on March 26, 1837.
The famous duel between Liszt and Thalberg, or "Rome" and "Carthage," has spawned legendary anecdotes and quotations about the two pianist-composers. Not all of it is true, and the famous Liszt biographer, Alan Walker, sheds light on the truth of the matter: "There is nothing here to suggest that Liszt saw in Thalberg a rival. Least of all did he 'rush back to Paris, nostrils dilated, to defend his crown,' as one modern journalist has put it." But when Liszt's mistress, Marie d'Agoult, used his name to write disparaging remarks about Thalberg's music, a war of the press began, sides were drawn, and a "battle" between the two pianists was inevitable. Thalberg and Liszt performed their own recitals in Paris, both taking advantage of the Parisian fervor, and eventually collided in a musical duel under Princess Belgiojoso's roof. This recording presents an almost historically accurate program of what was played during the evening of the duel. I say "almost" because Liszt's "Benediction de Dieu dans la solitude" had not yet been composed. While Mayer's interpretation of the Benediction is acceptable, demonstrating a balance of passion and judicious touch, I don't know why it was tacked on.
Both in his own concerts and in the famous duel, Liszt showcased his powers with the devilish Fantasy on Pacini's "Niobe" and the remarkable transcription of Weber's Konzertstück in F minor. I am only familiar with Leslie Howard's renditions of these pieces, but Steven Mayer is decent in his performance. He creates veritable excitement out of the Niobe Fantasy and reveals deep insight into Weber's Konzertstück. The Konzertstück, in particular, covers an incredible range of emotions, from the greatest sorrow and longing to ecstatic hope and jubilance. Thalberg's two war-horses, the Fantasy on Rossini's "Moise" and Fantasia on "God Save the Queen," are exquisite examples of Thalberg's art. Unfortunately, Mayer's execution of the Moise Fantasy is weak and uneven. In the first half of the piece his phrasing is clumsy, his emotions are absent, and his tempo is excessively fast. This is not the best exhibition of Thalberg's finest piano fantasy, and I would implore the curious to seek out Francesco Nicolosi's divine performance here: (Fantasias on Operas By Rossini). However, you will not find the Fantasia on "God Save the Queen" anywhere else, and as a Thalberg completist, that was the primary reason I bought this CD. The Fantasia is brilliant and guilty of melodious and flashy embellishment; it's pure fun.
Bottom line: There are some mighty enticing Liszt rarities here, and I can vouch for the Weber Konzertstück as a composition worthy of revival. But if you are genuinely interested in the music of Thalberg, I must whole-heartedly suggest Francesco Nicolosi's interpretations, instead; he is head of the Thalberg International Study Center, an accomplished pianist, and a real champion of Thalberg's music.
Battle of the salon stars.......2001-02-09
This is an interesting recreation of a competition between two of the foremost European pianists of the mid-19th century. All of the selections are showcases for each performer's reputed strengths, as well as making for rewarding listening. Stephen Mayer does a wonderful job imagining the styles of Liszt and Thalberg. The Liszt selections are dramatic; while the Thalberg pieces are more cultured-sounding, almost limpid. Comparing them is a case of apples and oranges, here as it was at the time, so the verdict remain: "a tie".
Good News.......2000-09-14
This recording presents new pieces that are very difficult to play and to find in other recordings. I was acquainted to Mr. Thalberg through this recording. This recording has some special points to be considered : 1st - If you don't know Thalberg, buy it.... 2nd - There is a Webern piece that is very good too.
Liszt's Benediction de Dieu dans La Solitud has a beautifull sound here.
But, if you are trying to find something of good taste, try others... This CD is a show of great technical skills achieved.
