I appreciate this CD, it is high quality and a great variety and I enjoy it very much.

5 out of 5 stars "Abblassen" Used in "Sunday Morning".......2006-02-01

The CBS News show "Sunday Morning" is using "Abblassen" as their theme music.

5 out of 5 stars fun trumpets.......2005-09-13

"Masters of The Trumpet" is a simple and accurate title for this 2- disc collection. The recordings cover trumpet/cornet literature ranging from Gabrieli to Stravinsky.
Especially enjoyable moments are Don Smithers playing Reiche's "Abblasen" & Armando Ghitalla's work on Stravinsky's "Marche Royale" (L'Histoire du Soldat).
Rafael Mendez sounds as though he has more fun playing than should be legal...exciting!..and Adolph Herseth is a pleasure to hear whether he's playing in "delicate mode" or shattering asteroids with his power.

This set gives you symphonies 1 through 20, plus a bunch of others. The numbering of Mozart's 60-odd symphonic works is hideously confused, since everything after No. 41 is actually early music that was either undiscovered or for some reason unnumbered by Köchel when the original Mozart catalogue was first compiled. Be that as it may, Sir Neville Marriner's performances are clean, clear, and perky. This isn't great music, but it's full of charm, and these versions have given pleasure for many years. --David Hurwitz

5 out of 5 stars Neglected Masterpieces.......2002-02-21

Just as Vivaldi managed to escape the mainstream until the 1950s, so Mozart may suffer the same neglect. Why? These works deserve a great deal of attention. And this comprehensive collection makes systematic listening possible.

4 out of 5 stars Great music, great perform.......2000-12-10

Well, the Mozart Collection is quite expensive Near $2,000.00. But i think it worth the effort. If you are trying to begin a mozart collection, then you should buy this first piece. The music is great, the performers: not the top, nor the bottom. In general, I recomend it.

This was the set that really got the "authentic instrument" craze going. It was a big, ambitious project that promised a fresh look at familiar music, as well as lots of exciting new discoveries. Christopher Hogwood tailored his forces to match what we know of the actual size and constitution of the orchestras of the period, and since Mozart wrote symphonies in every country in Europe, including England, France, Italy, Germany, Austria and Czechoslovakia, the result is practically a blueprint of 18th-century orchestral practice. Then everyone else got into the act, and these performances sort of fell off the musical map. Listening to them again, one finds they hold up rather well. There's still the sense of discovery, and of course the music itself is glorious. At budget price, this is history in sound. --David Hurwitz

4 out of 5 stars The original, original instrument take.......2007-05-03

A few months ago I bought the Trevor Pinnock Mozart Complete Symphonies (11 cds) and the 250th Anniversary Edition Mozart Symphonies (8 cds) that is not quite a complete symphony cycle. The Anniversary Edition features Harnoncourt on about 5 of the 8 discs. I also have his two CD twofers that cover the early symphonies. So, I more or less ended up with two complete renditions of Mozart's symphonies. I first bought the Harnoncourt early symphony 2fer and enjoyed it enough to buy volume two. This led me to buy the 250 Anniversay 8 cd set. I have not in the least regretted these purchases!

Harnoncourt is the most radical of these three original instrument takes on Mozart, especially in the late symphonies. For example, listen to symphony 29 by each of these three sets and compare them to the Karl Bohm benchmark 29th. Harnoncourt is Ricky Racer and Bohm is Mr. Serene and Majestic.

Obviously, price is only one of the factors in buying. The AAM costs more but has almost twice the music. The AAM set is probably the more collectable since they got there first. This set was issued in multiple lp boxes way back when and I recently watched just one of these boxes, unopened, go for over 80 bucks at EBAY.

There really is quite a sound difference between modern and original instruments. Rhapsody has the Mozart Horn Concertos posted by the AAM using an apparently valveless horn. Listen to this very squeaky rendition and compare it to Brain's to get a feel for the difference. They also have the Philips Complete Mozart Piano Concerto box that features a pianoforte on disc one of concertos 1 to 4. This instrument sounds more like a harpsichord than a piano and took some adjusting to get used to. The Smithsonian put out on vinyl (circa 1980) The Six Brandenburg Concerti by Bach on original instruments. The booklet gives quite a bit of info on the differences in instruments between modern and original. Here are a few snippets: "The brass instruments were, until the 19th century, valveless." This reduced the number of notes available. "The wind instruments of Bach's time had few keys--the transverse flute had one, the oboe two or three, and the bassoon three--calling for contrived fingerings to cover the full chromatic scale." "The music produced by a Baroque bow is characteristically tapered in shape, with great potential for a lively distinction between notes."

The bottom line for me is that Mozart, when well played, conducted, and recorded, sounds great--be it original instruments or modern. Having both modern and original choices is great. Life is wonderful with changes in flavor. I have only listened once to the AAM Mozart symphonies and have not done a compare and contrast between these and Pinnock's, etc. I was impressed by the consistency in performance and that being very good. It is really quite a feat to put out 19 cds and have them sound great from stem to stern. As an ADD recording, these give the DDDs a run for the money. The AAM Mozart Symphony cycle is posted at Rhapsody so you can look before you leap if you are in the market.

5 out of 5 stars The most complete set of Mozart symphonies ever recorded.......2006-08-10

This massive 19 CD collection contains 71 symphonies!

Yes, all 41 of the usual symphonies are here, but another 27 symphonic works are presented, as well as alternative versions of symphonies Nos. 31, 35 & 40. The works are all recorded on period instruments (or modern copies of 18th century instruments) and the orchestra is accompanied throughout by harpsichord continuo. The sounds of the various sections of the orchestra are full of colour and character - the wind and brass players, in particular, make this set such a delightful one.

I also have the Pinnock recording, which contains only the standard 41 symphonies and it is every bit as good. I can really make up my mind which I prefer, although Pinnock's reading of symphony No. 40 is sublime - particularly in the beautiful slow movement. However, Hogwood and his Academy of Ancient Music play almost all these symphonies with great gusto and style. As another reviewer said, Hogwood allows his musicians to simply play the music and let Mozart's music live in a natural and "organic" way, with minimal interference from the conductor.

Each work tells a story and the recordings of these works remind us of the fact that Mozart wasn't some sort of proto-Beethoven, rather, his music was more like the culmination of many 18th century currents, trends and ideas - "Baroque music on steroids", even! ;-))

This is a set which is very close to my heart and I consider it one of the treasures in my home. I return to it often - at any time of the day or night.

5 out of 5 stars Indispensable .......2004-11-13

This set is indispensable for anyone who seriously wants to have a complete Mozart collection. It contains every symphonic work written by Mozart, including second versions of certain late symphonies.

The playing is "alive" and fresh, the sound is full, warm and clear. What you get is not Hogwood's "interpretation"...but music and just the music, this guy understands Mozart and just lets these musicians play with joy, spontaneity, meaning and feeling. I didn't think they would be so good! There are times when you don't even notice that they're playing on period instruments.

This set is completely satisfying and I'm glad I own it. It's a pricy box set, but totally worth it...try to find it used and bask in the glory of Mozart.

3 out of 5 stars Ok, but...........2004-06-30

I will qualify this review by saying that I have not by any means listened to every single symphony on this recording. I listened to several of the symphonies from this set for a conducting class, and spent a considerable amount of time comparing them with other recordings for phrase structure, dynamics, etc. My conclusion:

Overall, I am personally just not impressed by Hogwood. His handling of the phrases is rough, and the music just doesn't seem polished. Occasionally the balance is questionable (for example, several clarinet passages in the first movement of the 39th stick out), and at other points I get the impression that he put little planning into the organization of strong and weak bars. Perhaps it is mostly personal preference, but other conductors really do sound better.

I think that this recording has its place, as there are few boxed sets of all of Mozart's symphonies available, and certainly there was some groundbreaking period instrument work here. I would, however, strongly recommend that anyone considering purchasing this set actually obtain a copy first from a library to decide if this is really what they want.

5 out of 5 stars A milestone set, and worthy of all praise.......2004-04-29

In the 1970s, the Hungarian conductor Antal Dorati recorded all of the 104 symphonies of Franz Joseph Haydn (Amazon asin # B0000042DP). The era of "epic" integral collections was ignited. Many thought the vast majority of Haydn's symphonies would be boring, cookie-cutter works rolled out in almost assembly-line fashion. But Dorati, with excellent help from the Haydn scholar H. C. Robbins Landon, would disprove all of that, and show that there is not a dud in the whole collection. And Dorati's readings have stood the test of time.

Dorati's achievement marked the beginning of an ea that in the next 2 decades would see complete integral sets of the works of every major composer, culminating ultimately in the 1980s with Phiips complete Mozart Edition.

Shortly after Dorati finished his massive project, the Academy of Ancient Music embarked on a complete traversal of all of the "symphonies" of Mozart on period instruments, the currently reviewed item. Not just the traditional 41, but also many lesser know works. More fascinating music was unearthed. But, the milestone of this set is not the discovery of forgotten masterpieces. That had become a common daily occurence. It was the period instrument movement instead that was set free by Hogwood's achievement. With this project, Hogwood did for period instruments what Dorati did for integral cycles of lesser known works. The period instrument movement had been around for a long time. But it never quite could hit "mainstream" until Hogwood made these recordings. And ever since, period instruments have flourished.

There are better recordings of many of the works in this set, both on period instruments and conventional instruments. But the consistency that runs through the set brings an appreciation for Mozart's Symphonies that is unparallelled.

The set is competitively priced, the sound is very good throughout, there is decent documentation.

    5 out of 5 stars Perfect for the Season.......2005-11-19

    I purchased this years ago and the enjoyment has grown every Christmas. Handel's Messiah is beautiful, The Nutcracker is a classic and the arrangement of hymns conveys the true wonders of the season. While there is a place for pop carols, these classics should be in every Christian's music library. I loved this so much, I actually purchased a complete replacement set when I lost one of the discs. Certainly an excellent value that any music lover would treasure.

    4 out of 5 stars FOR WHISTLING OR SINGING ALONG.......2003-12-28

    The gifted Richard Hayman (Boston Pops arranger for more than 30 years) offers an interesting collection of holiday favourites. The back cover says "Orchestra and Chorus" - beware, there is no chorus. The sub-title "Philharmomic Symphony Orchestra" is rather pedantic. Why not simply "Richard Hayman and His Orchestra"? The opening and closing numbers are sing-along medleys... the liner notes offer the words. Two Leroy Anderson numbers receive a fair treatment: SLEIGH RIDE and SONG OF THE BELLS, the latter being played rrather slowly. There is a beautiful rendition of MUSIC BOX DANCER, the only version I know that uses the music box. The counter-melody is too loud and takes away the charm of the main theme. A few compositions by the conductor himself. A great collection for tree-trimming, whistling or singing along.

      Album Description

      Leopold Mozart (1719-1787) was a fine musician and composer, widely admired and only forgotten because of his even more brilliant son, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. He wrote approximately 70 symphonies of his own, some of which have been lost, and they apparently made a great impression on his son. In Wolfgang's earliest symphonies, written in his childhood, strong influences of his father are recognizable. The Lithuanian Chamber Orchestra Vilnius was founded 30 years ago. Their collaboration with conductor Georg Mais began in 1994 with numerous concerts in Lithuania and central Europe.

        This was a very smart idea. The early symphonies are all performed by Neville Marriner, while the later (and better) ones are the classic performances by Joseph Krips and the incomparable Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam. Some of these appeared on budget CDs briefly, but never the entire set. So although a hybrid series, this is as fine a collection of Mozart symphonies as one is likely to get. Music lovers who know about these legendary Krips recordings will snap this up without delay, but it also makes a very safe recommendation for anyone wanting the complete numbered symphonies on regular instruments. -- David Hurwitz

        5 out of 5 stars Krips and the Concertgebouw Orchestra are the reason to buy this set.......2005-12-02

        If you're looking at this set and wondering if you should buy it, Josef Krips and the Concertgebouw Orchestra are the reason to purchase this set. Krips conducts Symphonies 21-41, or 6 discs worth: 50% of this set of Mozart Symphonies. The Concertgebouw Orchestra plays beautifully, as you would expect, and have the perfect sense of Mozart's style, served so well and warmly by Krips' conducting. Krips' Mozart deserves to stand with the other "greats" in the Mozart later symphonies:
        Bohm/Berlin (DG); Klemperer/Philharmonia (EMI); Szell/Cleveland (Sony); Bruno Walter/Columbia (CBS) or New York Philharmonic (Sony "Bruno Walter Edition"); and Beecham/Royal Philharmonic (EMI: Symphony 41; Sony UK: Symphonies 35, 36, 38, 39, 40, 41) and London Philharmonic (Dutton). Tempos are never rushed, but Krips is sometimes faster than Bohm or Klemperer in some Allegro movements, but never to the detriment of Mozart's music. One prime example I recall is III of Symphony 26 in E flat Major: Krips is much faster than Bohm in this short movement, but it doesn't destroy the music.

        Neville Marriner leads Symphonies 1-21, plus a number of other symphonies attributed to or by Mozart, but outside the regular numbering system or Kochel numbers, etc. Marriner and the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields have excellent credentials as Mozart experts, and with good reason: they have made some great Mozart recordings on EMI and Philips. Here, however, Marriner and co. sound boring and routine in some of the earlier symphonies, and the harpsichord clatters away mercilessly; perhaps better phrasing and forward motion would have corrected this impression. But Marriner IS of value here for the Symphonies like 47, 52, etc. which are rarely, if ever recorded elsewhere. If you want to hear Marriner/ASMF in the later Mozart Symphonies, go for their EMI and Seraphim recordings, regularly available through Amazon.com.

        This is a valuable set, and I'm glad to have it mostly for the Krips recordings.

        5 out of 5 stars Very well performed.......2005-03-17

        Marriner and Krips both do fantastic jobs. Some may say this set is missing some pieces, and don't get me wrong, Mozart is one of my favorite composers, but frankly, these works are probably some of his early or posthumous symphonies, which are really not needed in the first place. The ones that are there more than suffice, and they are incredible. I usually go for period instrument performances, but I really think that the Mozart Symphonies sound so much better with modern instruments, which are used here. The sound quality is very good. Very highly recommended.

        3 out of 5 stars Mozart Complete Symphonies - Philips.......2004-10-12

        As usual, the ASMF and Marriner shine through with just the right tempo and expression. Marriner will always be my conductor of choice for Mozart's symphonies, although Jeffrey Tate with the English Chamber Orchestra does rather well too. The problem I had with this set was with the latter half (what are considered Mozart's "late" symphonies). They are disappointing under Krips' hand because Krips' interpretation of Mozart's symphonies is draggy and lack a je ne sais quois that the other Mozartean conductors of our day possess. It would have been better if Krips had done the early symphonies and Marriner, the late, because Mozart was at his peak as a composer with his late symphonies.

        2 out of 5 stars Where's the Rest of Him?.......2003-04-06

        If a work is to be called the "complete" anything, does it not behoove the artist to tell the truth? Anyone familiar with sonata allegro form knows a symphonic exposition is presented twice before entering development in the first movement. It's basic introduction to music. So how come my very favorite, Number 39, is abbreviated to only one presentation of the exposition? For nearly $... I think I deserve more no matter how good the cd sounds. If it sounds incomplete, then it is incomplete. I bought Beethoven's complete by Solti and the Chicago Symphony and despite the fact that those expositions are by tradition offered only once, Solti's integrity called him to present all 9 as written. I'm no scholar nor am I a stickler. I just know what things should sound like and anything less is unsatifactory.

        5 out of 5 stars You haven't fallen in love with His symphonies, yet..........2002-03-12

        Every phrase ever so beautifully formed and sounded with the help of the group that has that wonderful heavenly tone that could have been made to play Mozart - the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra (really only one of the few that deserve such a title), Josef Krips, a man who had devoted his career to the study of Mozart, deliver performances that closest match the achievement of the works themselves. Perhaps not known widely Josef Krips had a uncommon gift of forming and bringing out in his sensitive and loving way (savoring of Bruno Walter) the pictorial elements in the work, and having his roots in the stage, he was especially skilled in overlapping elements in Mozart's operatic work; of drama and humane feeling, and with those of his orchestral output; of philosophical resignation and a powerful otherworldly influence along perfect grace. You will be able to tell, he was a true Mozartean - one of the very few on record. And of his examination of the composer he wrote (included in the booklet of the as excellent Don Giovanni record on Decca): "Mozart is, of all composers, the most difficult to conduct, and I can tell you why: two bars and you are suddenly transported to heaven. It's very hard to keep your bearings when you are there."
