Customer Stokowski Conducts "Aurora's Wedding" & Stokowski Encores Reviews 




Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars) 4 stars

4 stars Stokowski Reissue
Cala continues its series of reissues of Leopold Stokowski's catalog with this compilation disc. It comes from Stoki's last years and is drawn from two long-deleted LPs. The selections show the maestro at his best with its mix of a suite from Tchaikovsky's Sleeping Beauty (Aurora's Wedding) and those famous transcriptions that were the trademark of his long and distinguished career. This disc makes us wish for more and gives hope to those who lament the current abandonment of classical music by the big record companies. As usual for Cala, transfers are excellent.

Stokowski Conducts "Aurora's Wedding" & Stokowski Encores
CD $15.39  Top 500
This two-CD compilation, assembled from the Walker Brothers' three albums and various singles released by Philips between 1965 and 1967, gives a good overview of their U.K. history without limiting itself to their hits. The sound quality is good if not exceptional -- one gets the sense that another round of remastering would be in order (and while we're talking about sound, wouldn't one like to see a Mobile Fidelity reissue on the Walker Brothers or, for that matter, Scott Walker's best solo stuff?). And the track order isn't chronological -- their two best-known songs, which were not their first two U.K. singles -- occupy the opening ...

Russian master Aleksandr Sokurov (THE SUN, RUSSIAN ARK, MOTHER AND SON) has produced another majestic achievement with ALEXANDRA. In a rare instance of working from his own original script, Sokurov tells the simple tale of a woman in the twilight of her life who embarks on a special journey. As the story unfolds, Sokurov's deeper purpose is revealed, resulting in a work that speaks profoundly about the corrosive nature of war. Opera star Galina Vishnevskaya is Alexandra. She hasn't seen her grandson in seven years and, understanding that her life is coming to an end, she ...

USA Today declared Ravenshead the "Best New Opera of the Year" when it debuted in 1998. The work is a tour de force that combines Steve Mackey's multi-faceted score, the dazzling physicality and mordant wit of Rinde Eckert, and a superb performance by the Paul Dresher Ensemble to pull off what the New York Press called "equal parts MTV video and Metropolitan Opera."Offered here with over 90 minutes of music on two CDs, the work is based on the real life story of Donald Crowhurst, ...
