A magical collection of Christmas songs from the 22 year old singing phenomenon that is Hayley Westenra. Winter Magic combines some of the best loved and most familiar seasonal carols such as 'Silent Night' and 'Coventry Carol' with popular Christmas songs 'Little Drummer Boy' and 'Sleigh Ride', as well as tracks Hayley has written herself ( Peace Shall Come, All With You and Christmas Morning). The variety of the song choices perfectly showcases the versatility of Hayley's angelic voice and her ability to not only perform in a beautiful, classical way (Corpus Christi Carol) but also in a considerably more 'pop' style (Peace Shall Come). Hayley released her first album 'Pure' at the age of 16 and it was soon on the way to becoming the fastest-selling debut album from a classical artist, and reached the Top 10 of the pop charts ...

As of 1976, Jean-Luc Ponty's variations on the Mahavishnu Orchestra theme were still fresh and imaginative, cast in a distinctively different, more lyrical, more controlled framework. For Imaginary Voyage, Ponty's instrumental lineup is identical to that of Mahavishnu -- electric violin, guitar, keyboards, bass, drums -- but he turns the emphasis on its head, with all commands coming directly from the violin (his) and less competitive crossplay emanating from his colleagues.

Anton Bruckner (1824-1896) wrote eleven symphonies including Symphony #0 and the Symphony in f Minor. He revised them so many times that if instead of these revisions he had composed new symphonies, their number might exceed the number of symphonies writtenby Mozart! Bruckner's lack of self-confidence allowed him to be persuaded by colleagues and even pupils to revise his compositions. You may hear the desperation in his words: "They want me to write differently. Certainly, I can, but I must not. God chose me from thousands and gaveme this talent. It is up to Him how I compose. What a sin it would be if I would follow others?" Despite the fact, that his symphonies underwent multiple alterations, Bruckner always kept the original scores for "later times." Bruckner's devotion to God enabled him to keep composing. The recording embodied on this CD is not the usual one, because it is the original version of Bruckner's symphony. Bruckner's church music sat well with audiences, but his symphonies, for which he is best known today, were radical in scope and received with hostility. Local orchestras, including the Vienna Philharmonic, were reluctant to perform his symphonies, usually deemed by them as formless, too long, and unmarketable. Bruckner (as well as many other great composers including Rachmaninov) suffered from destructive attacks by musical critics. Today no-one remembers the names of these "musical judges"; and their sentences,if you can still find them, sound very funny and shallow after a hundred years. According to many historians Bruckner was "humble, straightforward, uncomplicated, unpretentious and unsophisticated." Unlike Wagner, Bruckner rarely showed interest in literature (except the Bible), drama or political philosophy. There is a famous anecdote: after a performance of Wagner's Ring, Bruckner asked: "Why did they burn Brunnhilde?" Bruckner established himself as a composer very late, though he was born in a family of musicians and from his youth studied music seriously. Wilhelm Furtwangler once said: "Schubert and Mozart had already completed their life's works when Bruckner wasstill writing counterpoint exercises." It is always fascinating to watch audiences who are astonished by the early development of talent. I wonder why people don't consider a strawberry more superb, perfect and advanced than an orange because it ripens earlier? It is good to remember that everything has its own time and purpose. If there is a gun - one day it will shoot. It is a historic fact that Bruckner adored Wagner as almost a musical god and considered him a hero and father-like figure. Bruckner's dedication of his Third Symphony (1873) witnesses this fact. Maybe, Bruckner admired Wagner so much because Wagner's music was so different from his own? Another great impact on Bruckner's music was made by the late Beethoven, especially by his Ninth Symphony. It became a model for all of Bruckner's symphonies. There is an opinion that Bruckner didn't write eleven symphonies; he just wrote the same symphony eleventimes. Bruckner was an extremely devout man. His music is meditative and his symphonies can be compared with cathedrals in their scale. A rare feature to consider is his feeling of time. Most forms of Viennese classicism are based on frequent changes of characters and episodes. They are so different from Bruckner! An extremely slow ...
