4 out of 5 stars Pieces of Pieces--4.5 stars.......2007-06-05

According to Keith Anderson's CD insert (in English, French, & Spanish), "Georg Philipp Telemann [1681-1767] was among the most distinguished composers of his time." He was a friend of Bach's & was Bach's 2nd son's godfather. This CD contains many of Telemann's best & most famous works. I have other versions on CD's, esp. the Suite in A-moll (minor), Viola Concerto in G major, Trumpet Concerto in D major, & table music. For more of the latter--there's a 2 CD set "Dinner Music" B0001XBBPO Georg Philipp Telemann; Dinner Music Vol. 1 & 2 with Concertos by Johann Hummel & Franz Richter and "Musique de table" by Essential Classics/Sony. This CD is a generous 71:07 in 23 tracks/movements. It's strength is in its selection & variety. This, however, is also its weakness--many selections are pieces of pieces--not the entire composition. Thus, they appear shorter than other versions--mostly due to this excerpting. Similarly & simultaneously plus & minus, except for 2 by the Cologne Chamber Orchestra, the pieces are performed by different orchestras. Thus, I'd say this CD is a fine introduction to Telemann, but suggest further exploration to comprehend the fullness of his compositions. Still, I would give this a 5 star except for one thing. The lead-in piece, arguably Telemann's most famous, the A-moll is simply IMHO played too fast. It lacks the majesty shown in other renditions of this piece. Not a good way to start.

Also, I'd recommend: Telemann: Viola Concerto; Don Quichotte; Hamburger Ebb und Flut /ASMF * Marriner and The Sensuous Baroque

4 out of 5 stars A great baroque album by one of the masters of baroque composition.......2007-03-04

George Philipp Telemann is a great introduction in to the world of baroque music. This album was the very first classical album that I bought (about 10 years ago) and I have found my love for baroque and classical music to increase exponentially ever since.
This album shows the true beauty of baroque by using instruments to their fullest potential. The baroque period was one of growth in knowledge of the arts and music theory played a large part in that knowledge.
Telemann, in my opinion, was one of the greatest baroque artists. I know that works such as Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons" and Handel's "Messiah" were the defining works of baroque, but Telemann used the smaller and more intimate groupings like chamber music. Even his orchestations were minimalized so as to accentuate the instrument on which he chose to focus.
Telemann was a master of the baroque age, if somewhat unsung, and I would recommend any of his albums, but this one has a special place for me as it was the first classical album that I bought in a now excessively large classical library.

5 out of 5 stars A Great Introduction at a Great Price.......2004-12-06

I had heard some of Telemann's work on interent classical stations and wanted to learn more. This is a great introduction to a great composer at a great price. I found the quality satisfactory and my stereo is fairly advanced. The music flows nicely, which is not always the case with "best of" compilations. This will become a core part of my classical collection.

5 out of 5 stars Delightful Baroque Variety.......2003-12-23

Here for baroque lovers or those interested in exploring one of its most prominent composers is a collection of some of the very best of Telemann.

What an enormous output this great German composer put out! From church music to chamber music, Telemann uses all the styles of his era, from Italian to French to German, he does them all execeptionally well with his own style of clarity and fluidity.

The Viola Concerto is absolutely gorgeous, and it's a shame that this resonant, sensuous instrument doesn't not have a wider repertoire. Kyselak is marvelous in his phrasing and expressiveness.

The Recorder Concerto by Stivin is just delightful and exemplary of the fine liltiness of baroque. The Quartet in G Major from Tafelmusik I is admirably performed by the Orchestra of the Golden Age with passion and sensitivity.

The Overture in D and C Major, Darmstadt, is just exquisite. This is exciting music with great swellings and undertonings throughout.

I thoroughly enjoy baroque and this collection with its varying instrumental groupings highlighted and the variety of styles and genres is truly stimulating and relaxing to listen to. For the price, this is just an outstanding find.

Robert King and his Consort provide a fantastic recording catalog of such for us baroque lovers.

5 out of 5 stars The best at your hands.......2000-08-21

Naxos has released dozens of "The Best of" CDs, and this one is a great addition, just as any other CD. It might be a coincidence, but this particular CD got me hooked on Classical Music. For newcomers to Classical Music, I would definitely recommend this fine CD. At budget price and with the DDD quality, it is worth buying. For Beethoven experts, this might just be a worthy addition to their repertoire.

5 out of 5 stars chopin performances to go back to.......2006-02-18

This is the first cd I bought when I started my classical cd collection six years ago. Now I have over a hundred classical cds, of pianists ranging from legends like Martha Argerich, Artur Rubinstein, Glenn Gould, Alicia de la Roccha, Evgeny Kissin, Alfred Brendel, Vladimir Ashkenazy, Philippe Entremont, Daniel Barenboim, Claudio Arrau, Murray Perahia to emerging lights like Lang Lang, Yundi Li, Stanislav Bunin, Cecile Licad, etc.

But I always come back to this cd, at the same time wondering why despite these deeply introspective performances, Idil Biret is not readily judged as one of Chopin's leading interpreters. This is Chopin at his best and most pure.

Stand-outs are her performances of Fantasie-Impromptu in C sharp minor, Ballade No. 3 in A flat major, Farewell Waltz, Tristesse Etude, Berceuse in D flat major, and the Scherzo No. 2 in B flat minor. I prefer Biret's Ballade and Berceuse over Rubinstein's, any day.

Of the hundreds of Chopin CDs out there, you cannot go wrong with this one. For the price, for the choice of works, and for insightful interpretations. Bravo, Idil Biret. Thank you!

5 out of 5 stars Winner of Polish Chopin Grand Prix.......2001-11-23

The selections in this CD are taken from Idil Biret's recording of the complete piano works of Chopin (Naxos 15 CD) which won a "Grand Prix du Disque Frederic Chopin" in Poland in 1995. This competition is held once every five years and there were 46 entries that year with two winning prizes. Need one say more?

      5 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Collection .......2005-12-17

      This is an excellent sampling of the music of one of the greatest composers of the twentieth century, displaying a wide range of emotion, from the enthusiasm of the first selection, the Festive Overture, to the soaring lyrical beauty of the Romance (track 5), to the poetry of the andante movement of the Piano Concerto No. 2 (track 9), to the slow, deep, intensity of the Largo movement of the Piano Trio No. 2 (track 13), very movingly performed by the Stockholm Arts Trio.

      At the same time that the various musical selections exhibit Shostakovich's range and diversity, they are nonetheless arranged in such a way that the listener doesn't experience any unpleasant impact from the sudden change in tempo that occurs, for example, when the Romance in track 5 ends, and the very next selection is the highly energetic allegro movement from the Symphony No. 10. Rather, the feeling is one of stimulation and excitement as one moves, from one selection to the next, through the wonderful variety of Shostakovich's compositions.

      The quality of the musicianship on every track is first rate, including the selections played by the National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine and its talented conductor, Theodore Kuchar. The andante movemont of the Piano Concerto No. 2 is a slice of musical heaven, played wonderfully by pianist Michael Houston and the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra. There is power, intensity, tenderness, subtlety, and great beauty in the wonderful performances on this very reasonably priced CD. The sound engineering is also first rate, with crystal clear sound and excellent balance of the instruments. For those who want to hear a greater number of selections from this composer, Naxos has now released the two-CD "The Very Best of Shostakovitch."

      Amongst the "Best of" or "Greatest Hits of" classical music CD's that I have, this is one of the best. Highly recommended.

      5 out of 5 stars Traditional & Modern, Russian & Global........2003-03-21

      This CD opens a door for me to explore the huge music treasure of Shostakovich. I love every piece of music on this CD. "The Gadfly" film score suit is especially beautiful and performed by first-class musicians in National Symphony Orchestra of Ukraine. There is too little, this is the only problem with this CD to me.

      5 out of 5 stars !.......2000-07-13

      Pursuant to the previous review: Since there is now a listing supplied, I guess that the disc should now be considered a five star masterpiece.

        2 out of 5 stars sweet tone, bad recording.......2000-02-26

        NAXOS is good to discover new/younge artists, but it should also apply good techniques in the recording. If Ilya is playing in front of us, we will be easily moved, but the bad recording simply destroyed his performance

        5 out of 5 stars Excellent songs- bad player.......1999-09-04

        Two phrases- Paganini good, Ilya Kaler very, very bad. Worst violinist ever.

        5 out of 5 stars Great "tunes".......1999-08-21

        I agree with the above review. This is incredibly good music. The sonatas with violin and guitar are beautiful, and the caprices are certainly astounding. Everyone knows Paganini was an unmatched violinist, but he was also a great composer. This disc is a steal.

        5 out of 5 stars great music.......1999-03-19

        This is some of the sweetest music of all times. Fortunatelly for me, but sadly for the performers it's also very cheap.

        3 out of 5 stars What worked was great.......2007-05-29

        I'm not really reviewing Rachmaninov... I think the titles of the music listed speak for themselves if you know any Rachmaninov. If you don't know any Rachmaninov, I'd suggest you do so pretty quick.

        Anyway, I got my CD in the mail promptly, but it was buggy. It comes in two CDs... first problem came when trying to copy the music to my computer; the names and data of each song are not loaded onto my CD properly... all the song names on the second disk were the the same as the first, so my computer just overwrote them if that makes any sense, so I had a jumble of pieces and had to end up recopying, etc., yada yada.

        Second problem is that on some tracks the piece would stop in the middle, unfinished, and go on to the next track. For example, it would be listed as being 4:45 minutes long, but would stop at say, 2:24 in mid-piece and go onto the next track. Bummer.

        But I don't really know much about CDs, it could just be my copy, who knows. Other than that, what I did get is gorgeous.
