The Brahms Violin Concerto in D major, was dedicated to the violinist Joseph Joachim, and was first performed by him in 1879. It has become a mainstay of the genre, and along with the Beethoven and Mendelssohn concertos, is part of the triumvirate ... Full Descriptionof most important 19th-century violin showpieces.
This particular recording, from 1976, is a superb reading of this very symphonic concerto. Carlo Maria Giulini's conducting of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra is most refined, clean, and crisp, with the inherent tension between the violin and orchestra enhanced by his subtle hand. He complements the technically brilliant yet highly musical playing of Itzhak Perlman. The Adagio is especially lovely for its restrained beauty, and this is very lyrical playing.
This disc captures a splendid collaboration by Perlman, Giulini, and the Chicago Orchestra. The liner notes provide listeners with interesting perspectives about the history of the concerto and Itzhak Perlman's career. Also, in the case of Perlman, it is always heartwarming to realize once again that serious physical disabilities may be overcome so splendidly.

| Allman Brothers Band Dreams CDs (1989) Box Set
 $48.19  
DREAMS is a 4-CD box set compiling in chronological order tracks by the Allman Brothers Band, as well as tracks by bands featuring one or more member of the Allman Brothers Band and solo performances by Gregg Allman and Dickey Betts.
Recorded between 1966 & 1988. Includes a 32-page illustrated booklet and liner notes by John Swenson.
Like nearly all box sets, DREAMS has plenty to recommend it-and a few nagging drawbacks. The set's chief shortcoming is its two conflicting goals: providing an overview of the Allmans' history, thus attracting buyers seeking the ultimate hits package, and including enough unreleased tracks and rarities to appeal to the band's most devoted fans. As a result, DREAMS is neither the definitive Allman Brothers collection nor the gift to hardcore fans that, say, THE BOOTLEG SERIES is to Dylan-philes.
DREAMS' strengths are considerable. First and foremost, the box contains nearly five wall-to-wall hours of great music. By including everything from early demos to Gregg Allman and Dickie Betts' solo material, DREAMS does a great job of tracing the group's musical evolution from hippie blues band to kings of Southern rock. And, while the unreleased studio version of "Statesboro Blues" included here isn't definitive, it's still mighty good-as are the set's other rarities.
