Fine selection of Grainger and solid virtuosity to boot.......2000-02-03

Wow. With the many fine wind ensembles out there, Dr. Westbrook's 52-member UCLA group is right up there with the best of them in this CD. The ensemble soloists are both individually expressive and almost technically flawless in the Grainger pieces. There are some very minor intonation misses as a group, a few spots where section unison playing (i.e. "sound as one") can be detected as not in unison, and a slightly irritating (controllable, but not controlled) over buzzing of the contraclarinet in a piece or two, but these constitute mere nuances (i.e. being over picky here). The Capriol Suite (by the string ensemble) should be nostalgically familiar to some high school (or grade school musicians) who performed in full orchestra, a nice bonus piece to supplement this concert band CD. I whole heartedly recommend a purchase here as the major Grainger pieces are included (e.g. Lincolnshire Posy, Colonial Song, Irish Tune, etc.--great selection, very well played). IF you either: 1) desire a more comprehensive selection of Grainger and/or 2) are, for example, a music educator, who could benefit from a 100-piece "traditional" concert band recording to use with your students (or you desire the mass of a full band) I'd suggest the Univ of Illinois "Begian" 2 CD Grainger set, but you have to order from the University directly. IF you don't have either of these needs, you can't go wrong with the UCLA purchase here as a solo CD!

Fantastic.......2007-06-12

Stephen Hough plays with such heart that it's amazing he's still in one piece. His mastery of both lyrical and athletic genres is incredible. His recordings never fail to move me.

a pianist's pianist performing musical gems..........2002-08-15

While not as well known to the world at large, Stephen Hough is well known among pianists. He's had the knack for finding music that has been neglected and bringing it to light. The music on this CD is a collection of gems -- whose luster Hough brings to light. If you enjoy piano music, this is a "must have" disc.

Some anthologies, become tiresome. Not this one. This is an album you can put on and listen to -- and then listen to the whole disc again...and again. Then I've gone back and listened to some individual tracks still again. The music is compelling, and the performances are masterful.

Let's hope for another disc such as this from the great Stephen Hough.

Exquisite,elegant,nostalgic pieces we seem to have ignored.......2001-01-02

If you have thought the loftier magnetic emotive fields of postmodernity, its conceptual excesses as having abandoning the virtues of obvious enchantments,contentment and reveries as flowing backwards this selection here is an ardent affirmation. All the selections are a celebration of the lost world of piano elegance, of a deeply thought through timbral curiosity reserved for the character piece. We often have simply placed on the shelves of music history these elegant particles of emotion in search for loftier weightier heights via the symphony or concerto. I dare say that time has been wasted. The sentimental the lost time is here evidenced in all these selections, Schubert/Liszt Soirees de Viene easily transports one back, nostalgically for we are escaping here the turmoils of the Hapsburg and Hollenzollerns kingdoms. Likewise the ardent piano composer Leopold Godowsky here his "Alt Wien" is like a New Years celebration. You will find neglected parts of the repertoire as well here pursued by Hough. The Moszkowski is like a crosshanded tribute to Scarlatti, little impeccably crafted textures and pianistic colours are here in Etincelles. Hough's arrangement of Kalman's "Was weiss ein nie gekusster Rosenmund" is simply for seriouslovers of any persuaion, like Marlene Dietrich's "I am driven to you like a moth to a flame". Hough plays all this music with the visionary reserve the music needs, I can easily see this music being romanticized where certain chord progressions certain emotive inflections at the ends of phrases,are(rubatisized) milked for all their worth. Hough here keeps/maintains a discipline.

The character pieces here of the Russian soul has also been neglected,We wanting the East to only join the West in loftier subject matter. Rachmaninov and Tchaikovsky,in pairs of Humoresques have inspired memorable experiences based on simple melodies. There are as ever bit as a challenge to create as their colossol concertos. It is a skill of a different sort,but one just as vigorous creativily and challenging.

Richard Rodgers is also a serious creator of the memorable from within this mileau,"Hello young Lovers" is played as you've never heard it before. This music has a sustenance that simply will not fade with time. It seesm we need this music more than ever.

Music that stays in your heart and mind.......2005-08-26

I really enjoy listening to this album. I love music composed during the Romantic Era (Composers such as Chopin, Rachmaninov, Borodin etc...) However, I may not like all of Borodin's works but this album is just perfect. It has the best of those composers. Good music to listen to when you're away on a vacation/retreat to just get away from the busyness of life.
