Was This Review Helpful? Yes No A must for the (guitar)music lover
As a long-time fan of Julian Bream I purchased this cd years ago, then made a mistake by lending it out. I never got it back, and if you buy this cd you'll know why! I spent quite some time trying to find it again and am glad my efforts paid off! Thank you, CD Universe! To (guitar)music connoisseurs, aficionado's and the like, this in the sixties recorded work of Juilan Bream represents a true gem of Baroque Guitar Art...yes... in capital letters! It has been digitally remastered with the musiclover in mind: that is without radical noise-suppressing techniques in order to preserve the full-frequency quality of the original recording, thus preserving Julian's stunning beautiful language! Do yourself (or somebody else, like I did) a favour, buy it!

The classical guitar is most intimately associated with Spain (and is, in fact, sometimes referred to as the Spanish guitar to distinguish it from the steel-string acoustic guitar more popular in the United States). So it should come as no surprise that the former Spanish colonies in Central and South America should have a rich tradition of guitar music, and that there would be something just a little bit different about it. This collection of Latin American works, all performed by the astoundingly virtuosic Scottish guitarist David Russell, covers most of the major centers of guitar artistry in Central and South America, concentrating particularly on Brazil and Argentina, and focusing on works of the 20th century. There are pieces by the usual suspects (Manuel Ponce, Heitor Villa-Lobos, Dilermando Reis) as well as some impressive works by such living ...
| | Diana Krall Christmas Songs CD (2005)
Baroque Guitar / Julian Bream
$10.49 
On 2005's CHRISTMAS SONGS, Diana Krall applies her sultry vocals and nuanced piano lines to a strong set of holiday classics. In addition to turning in a stirring performance of "The Christmas Song" that would make Nat "King" Cole proud, Krall eases into a swaying version of "Winter Wonderland" and a lush rendition of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." With its dynamic arrangements and pitch-perfect mix of pop and jazz, this album stands alongside other timeless Yuletide outings.

After several graph compositions and early pattern pieces with jazz ensembles in the late '50s and early '60s (see "Concert for Two Pianists and Tape Recorders" and "Ear Piece" in La Monte Young's book An Anthology), Riley invented a whole new music which has since gone under many names (minimal music -- a category often applied to sustained pieces as well -- pattern music, phase music, etc.) which is set forth in its purest form in the famous "In C" (1964) (for saxophone and ensemble, CBS MK 7178). "Rainbow in Curved Air" demonstrates the straightforward ...

Baroque Guitar / Julian Bream
$13.09
This compilation of selected fragments of Alvin Curran's orchestral, choral, solo keyboard, electronic, and installation works created between 1987 and 2003 begins with "Toto Angelica," 89 seconds of sampladelic madness. In complete contrast, "Music Is Not Music" is a slow and exquisite setting of texts by John Cage, recalling both Stravinsky and Satie, after which the computer-controlled ship foghorns of "Maritime Rites -- Wasserkorso" come across as rather crude. Curran's involvement with contemporary dance has been major and longstanding; "For MG" was written for the Trisha Brown Dance Company and is scored for piano and tape. It's rather like Rosicrucian period Satie until it's interrupted by what sounds like a lawn mower trying to start up. Similarly potty is the chamber orchestra work "In Hora Mortis," mixing aimlessly chugging ostinati with snatches of tango, circus trombones, and cheesy organ. "Endangered Species" is another wild cocktail of improvised piano, vocal fragments, pop samples, and diverse field recordings, and the pulsing rhythms that open "Pittura Fresca" collapse into a wobbly keyboard patch after barely two minutes, to be followed by a hefty chunk of Mozart's Requiem and the sound of a basketball. In its stubborn exploration of four-note cells, the piano piece "Inner Cities 2" recalls Morton Feldman -- at least until it slips into a smooth, Bill Evans-inflected "Body and Soul." The album continues with a tape montage portrait of Cage, "Erat Verbum John," and a remix of sorts by Domenico Sciajno of an installation entitled "Romulus and Remus Make a Ruckus," before the final flourish of "Return to Sender," performed by the rather grandiosely titled Alvin Curran Filharmonia (whose ranks include Shelley Hirsch, Joan Jeanrenaud, Fred Frith, Domenico Sciajno, and William Winant). While Curran acknowledges that these "chosen snippets are presented as the antipasti and the main course all in one," the overriding effect of listening to Lost Marbles is one of information overload rather than indigestion. It's one of the most fun-filled Tzadik releases of recent times, even if it raises the question as to where the real Alvin Curran is to be found in the midst of this joyous pandemonium. ~ Dan Warburton
