Pianoforte Opus 5: Broadway Delight!.......2007-03-20

Christopher Peacock is an extremely talented pianist. This CD is both exciting and soothing. I play it in my office as background music and use the auto reverse mode! I am planing to purchase additional CDs of his.

Music that is great to accompany any quiet project or event........1998-09-27

This CD is my favorite when I work on my computer especially after a long day at work. The music is current and liked by teens as well as adults. My niece asked her parents to buy a copy after hearing it during Easter dinner at our house. The music simply makes me feel good.

Amazon.com

Elaine Paige headlines the international cast of Masterpiece: The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber, a September 2001 concert in Beijing. Paige sings songs from her roles in Lloyd Webber's musicals Evita, and Sunset Boulevard, while Kris Phillips, Sandy Lam, Tony Vincent, and others provide solid but rarely thrilling renditions of tunes from such shows as Jesus Christ Superstar and Phantom of the Opera. Indeed, other than the legitimacy provided by Paige, there's not a whole lot to distinguish Masterpiece from the many other Lloyd Webber tributes and compilations. The primary distinction may be the fact that the concert is also available on DVD, which more than doubles the CD's 54-minute running time. The CD is really not much more than a promotion for the DVD, a point proven by the inclusion of a bonus DVD that samples two performances (Phillips's "The Music of the Night" and Lam's "I Don't Know How to Love Him"). Better, then, to simply get the DVD, or the DVD and CD combo for a cheaper price than when they're purchased separately. --David Horiuchi

Customer Reviews:

Not very good at all.......2006-05-07

This is a very poor concert. There are only two actually good women singers, the older woman who sings "Don't Cry for Me, Argentina" and the young woman who sings "Wishing you were Somehow Here again" and the duet of "All I ask of you" is actually VERY good, I would definitly listen to her more. Again, there are only one or two half decent male singers "Sunset boulavard" for instance. The singers that are also in the chorus who have solos are very bad, the songs "Jesus Christ Superstar" "The Music of the Night" "And the money kept rolling in" "I don't know how to love him" "Memory" are all just plain bad. If you are really interested, I sudgest trying to find it in your library, it is just not worth paying ANYTHING to buy it.

Missing one star for its completeness.......2006-04-09

Let's begin with a little detail on the concert first. This is the highlight recording of "Masterpiece: The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber live in Beijing" which took place at the Great Hall of the People in September 2001. There are 4 main singers here: Elaine Paige, Tony Vincent, Kris Philips (Fei Xiang) and Sandy Lam. Besides from the 4 main singers, there are also an ensemble cast of 12-16 people which I believe are from Australia.

The whole concert is almost 3 hours in length with over 30 songs from almost all the works by Andrew Lloyd Webber including the latest show by Webber back then which was "The Beautiful Game". Missing only Starlight Express and By Jeeves. Here comes the bad part, only 13 were chosen to be on the CD and Miss Sandy Lam's song isn't even on the recording!!! There are some other truly wonderful performance that were left off the recording. For example, Tony Vincent's "And the Money Kept Rolling", the ensemble's "Let Us Love in Peace" and Miss Paige's "The Heart Is Slow to Learn", just to name a few

Still, there are some really nice performance captured in the CD. Elaine's "Don't Cry for Me Argentina" and "As If We Never Said Goodbye" are quite good but I have heard better versions out there. Tony Vincent's "Jesus Christ Superstar" is really awesome. That shouldn't be a big surprise since he was Judas in the Broadway Revival of JCS. Another of my favourite is Helen Walsh with her take on "Take That Look off Your Face". That was quite a performance. The other outstanding one is Lisa Crosato with her rendition of "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again". Then there's a great treat when both of them sang a duet together in "Pie Jesu". It was so beautiful. Thank goodness they didn't leave this one out.

Besides from the audio part, there are also sample clips from the concert: Kris Philip's "The Music of the Night" and Sandy Lam's "I Don't Know How to Love Him". Amazon said that it comes in a form of a bonus DVD. Mine's more of an enhanced-CD, if you pop the CD into the computer, then the bonus clips will play. That's quite a nice treat. But wouldn't it be better to just buy the DVD?

So, to sum all of that up, I'd recommend you to go and get the DVD if you're interested in the concert. I didn't hate this recording or anything but just wish that it would be more complete.

disappointed.......2002-09-29

I saw the TV Special and the CD is missing some of the better pieces of music. Disppointing. I thought the CD would contain all of the music from the TV special and purchased it before its release. Had i known that songs like "The Heart is Slow to Learn" would not be included, I would have saved my money - the recorded songs are pretty much the same pieces that have been recorded before.

wrong picture.......2003-07-19

First off, I want to say that the picture for this cd is wrong. I ordered this cd from this page and I received the cd with a picture of a hallway in shadows from an old cathedral or abbey. This confused me to no end when I received it. But the tracks are listed correctly. As for the music on this cd , its beautifull. What I especially liked was the variety. They are all so different. It has solemn and uplifting, fast and dreamy. There was not one track I did not like. The "wings of a dove" was sung excellently by a boy. I had never heard the "Humming Chorus" by Puccini, and I just loved it. Very surreal. Then down to earth with a rousing "Zadok the Priest". Its all good. Treat yourself, its worth it.

As well as can be expected..........2001-08-07

None of the music contained herein is from the original cast recordings. As far as I can tell these are sung by session musicians and accompanied not by a full orchestra but synth strings and sampled melodies.

The renditions range from the inspired (the bits from "Whistle Down The Wind", "Sunset Boulevard", "Evita", "Joseph & The Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat" and "Starlight Express") to the insipid (the dreadful renditions of songs from "Phantom Of The Opera", "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Cats").

There are some odd inclusions on this set ("The Mirror", "Eternal Youth Is Worth A Little Suffering", "The Rap") as well as some very glaring omissions (where the hell is "Love Changes Everything", "Everything's Alright", "Amigos Para Sempre", "Pie Jesu" and "Unexpected Song"?). Isn't this supposed to be the great music of Andrew Lloyd-Webber?
