Music for concentration and focus.......2001-05-14

I first read the research on the positive effects of classical music at 60 beats per minute many years ago. With no commercial options available then, I made my own tape from excerpts of world class recordings I own, largely of Mozart. I rarely tolerate background music while I work because it distracts and diffuses focus. The slow Mozart movements have an astonishingly opposite and positive effect, enhancing concentration and mental clarity. For listening pleasure, I prefer the complete works with all movements, as a prior reviewer noted. However, for calmed focus and concentration, by removing the alternate movements this recording serves that purpose with excellence.

There is sufficient variety to avoid monotony, and while the musicianship will not garner critical acclaim it is competent and acceptable for the purpose of this recording. I enjoy it immensely. It is one of the rare pieces I will play in the background while doing work that requires serious focus.

good news, bad news.......2000-07-23

Good news: contains famous works of Mozart for a very small cost. The music is eloquent and perhaps stimulates the brain with the Mozart effect. It is definitly good to listen while commuting and stuck an a traffic jam.

Bad news: These music are so well known that to many, it feels redundant. These are not world-class performers or conductors, so the music doesn't have a new intereptation or anything out of the ordinary. Also, I tend to like to have the entire three (or four) movements of the song, not just one movement. And practically all of these songs are the slow movement so it gets redundant.

I would recommend this to any beginning listeners but for more experienced listners, try investing in a slightly more expensive but better performed recordings.

I like the music and variety of selections. I wish it had more selections.

Ok classical music CD........2003-01-31

This is a pretty run of the mill clasical music CD. The first track sounded a little rough to me (sounded like harmonica and recorder -- I was not overly impressed) but the other tracks seem more par for the course.

Japanese Rock.......2007-05-13

This is single/title CD for the third of the Bleach (anime) opening songs.
Ichirin no hana means literally Ichi(one) rin(counter word for flowers[no meaning]) no (of) hana (flower), so the title litterally means "One flower" though the fansubbers and translators for the series tended towards "Lone Flower" or "Single Flower" for the more poetic translation.

The track listings are (in romanji):

1) Ichirin no hana
2) Warped Reflections
3) Ichirin no hana - huge hollow mix -
4) Ichirin no hana (less vocal track)

Fair warning that this is the full version of the song, which is significantly longer than the TV cut for the intro song, mostly due to a large guitar instrumental section. The second track is another song by the same group, I suppose meant to help push some of their other work. Warped Reflections is a bit more j-pop typical, fast beat, and the yelling vocal is cut back a rather lot so that it's not blasting out too much. The third track is just another mix of the song, which I do not like better than the original, and the last track is a karaoke track for Ichirin.

This group is definitely a slightly harder rock group than most people tend to expect, especially from those who are used to j-pop. Most of their songs consist of really rather good guitar and base combo, good background drums, and an alto female vocal occasionally joined by a tenor male backup. Almost every song has parts with a male roar/yeller (I'm not entirely certain if this is the same man who does the occasional male vocals or not), but he generally isn't put in the foreground of the song, instead generally blended back a little with the music going on in the background so that the yell doesn't overwhelm.

This CD is a fantastic sampling of a wide variety of ukulele styles and techniques. A great collection for any uke lover and a super starting place for those who don't have any other uke recordings. A+++!

An awsome CD.......2003-12-31

This is just an awesome CD. It covers a variety of ukulele playing styles and music styles. It shows all those non believers that the ukulele is something more than just a toy. It truly is a beautiful instrument and a beautiful sounding instrument. This is demonstrated ever so skillfully by the masters on this CD. Its completely worth the money and is definitely something to put in your prized CD collection.

Only 2 songs and 2 melodies.......2006-11-12

The disk contains only 2 songs from Kill Bill and 2 melodies without words for these songs. I thought the disk contained more songs. It was my mistake but I am disappointed. It is better to buy soundtracks for Kill Bill.

Excellent Vocals and Instrumentals from Kill Bill.......2004-05-01

The English titles of this CD are not in Amazon or CDDB yet, but they are:

1. The Flower of Carnage
2. Urami Bushi
3. The Flower of Carnage (Instrumental)
4. Urami Bushi (Instrumental)

1 and 2 are in the Kill Bill soundtracks. 3 and 4 are very good renditions that qualify as soothing "background" music. An advantage of buying this CD is that Urami Bushi isn't ruined by The RZA's idea of rap (as it is in Kill Bill Volume 2 CD).

Meiko Kaji is an actress and a singer, and originally sung these songs for movies she was in. The sound quality on these tracks is professional, and much better than in the Japanese movies these songs originally appeared in.

If you do not have the Kill Bill albums, buy this CD, because the singing is excellent. If you already have bought the albums, buy this CD, because it's pure Japanese singing with two great instrumentals.

The album rocks. Buy this CD.

Ok service.......2007-01-05

came a day or 2 longer that I expected but not too bad

Ethereal.......2001-03-21

This collection is a must, even if you previously thought you had no
particular taste for traditional Japanese music. The melodies are
placid and contemplative. Ideal for reflective moments, or to
relax. I'm motivated to try more of Rampal's Japanese
recordings.

While Rampal gets top billing, Laskine on the harp is
just as prominent, and as excellent, in performing these works. The
playing time of the CD (sadly, only a modest 44 minutes) is about
equal measures solo flute, solo harp and harp/flute duet. The same
performances on this CD also are available on Sony catalogue #34568,
"Japanese Melodies for Flute and Harp." The tradeoff is that
this Denon CD costs ... less, but the Sony-labelled product has one
more track, Haru No Umi (track 1 thereon, for an extra 7
minutes).

As many readers will know, CBS sold its record labels to
Sony back in the '90s, I believe when they were acquired by
Westinghouse. While the vast majority of the old CBS/Columbia
recordings have been repackaged under the Sony label (see especially
the budget priced Sony Essential Classics series that's chock full of
gems), the CBS and Columbia marques also are still used by
Sony. Sometimes the same recordings are sold simultaneously under
these various labels, albeit with different pairings and cover
art. Most confusing. Here's more. The Denon label, under which this CD
is published, is an alias of Columbia Records Japan. Whether this
ultimately is owned by Sony as well these days, I do not know. The
point is that you should find a number of the same performances
packaged under Denon that you can get under Sony, CBS or Columbia.
