Product Description
Classical music is hot. In fact, it is probably the biggest story of the l990s in the recording industry. Classical crossover hits like Nigel Kennedy's recording of Vivaldi's 'The Four Seasons', Henryk Gorecki's 'Symphony no. 3', the Gregorian Chant album by the monks of Silo, and Michael Nyman's score for the Jane Campion film 'The Piano' - to name just a few - have broken out of classical music's traditional bounds and hit the pop charts. Suddenly, a classical recording that sells 10,000 units is no longer pushing the envelope; today's top classical releases are reaching sales heights formerly reserved for pop icons like Madonna and the Rolling Stones. This stunning turnaround in classical music's marketing power did not come out of nowhere, though. Celestial Harmonies helped set the stage for it with its Adagio (Complete Edition) (19908-2) series. Since 1981, long before the current interest in classical music began, Celestial Harmonies' compilations have been used worldwide for relaxation, meditation and even music therapy. And in a stunning reversal of music industry rules, absolutely no advertising or promotion was needed to achieve substantial sales figures. And while the rest of the classical world scurries around looking for the next big hit, Celestial Harmonies has released an updated digital version of an already proven winner: The Adagio series, a total of seven double-CDs. With sales of over 300,000 units in the past decade, the reason for the series' success is no mystery. As modern life has become increasingly complex and stressful, listeners have turned to music as a source of relief - especially the timeless, contemplative sounds of classical music. It seems that as the pace of our lives gets progressively faster, the music that many listeners are seeking is increasingly slow. The Adagio series, presents over seventeen hours of the world's finest slow music, making it the largest such collection anywhere. Adagio I includes the famous 'Air' from
Customer Reviews:
Excellent digital recording.......2003-03-18
I realize that classical music is something were there is a range of conesuirship, and I represent perhaps the lowest tier of appreciators. In my wholly uniformed opinion, "Adagio I" is an excellent classic music collection, containing well-executed pieces ranging from a few instruments to full orchestral ensembles, representing a variety of composers. The digital recording is remarkable, and an unexpectedly full sound comes from the CD. The 2 1/2 length is nice, split onto two disks.
My favorite pieces are the justifiably famous "Suite No.3 In D Major: Air" and the goose-bump inducing "Concierto De Aranjuez: Adagio." The style of the music is mostly soft, and relaxing but there are thrilling moments peppered in. The violin and the guitar have wooed me to contentment many evenings, and do so know as I am writing this review. An enjoyable CD set.

I concur.......2003-04-19
Most tend to think of Italian music as being strictly opera, but this album clearly reveals that instrumental Italian music is under appreciated.
LaScala seems to be getting back to its golden days that it enjoyed many years ago. Highly entertaining and recommended
A ferociously virtuostic and charmingly sensitive account........1999-07-19
This is a most impressive recording. The performances here by the very polished Orchestra Filarmonica della Scala are ferociously virtuostic yet never lack the sensitivity which is such a funamental part of Italian music whether it be symphonic or operatic. Muti is in control of every note and every dynamic. The CD opens with Paganiniana by Alfredo Casella. It is a work based upon themes by Nicolo' Paganini. It is a most striking work of the highest orchestral calibre. The orchestra of La Scala certainly does justce to this work. The intonation is impeccable and the presicion undeniable. The CD also features three short works by Giuseppe Martucci;Notturno, Novaletta and Giga. A tremendous amount of sensitivity is present here. although at times the works lack character they still are an impotant testament to the Italian symphonic trdition which is at times overlooked. The CD concludes with the Turandot Suite by Ferruccio Busoni which seems to be highly influenced greatly by the Austro-Germanic school of symphonic writing. The orchestra's brass section is in fine form. Delicate passages between the winds and strings come off beautifully. Muti has sure elevated this group of musicians to a world class standard and with such quality recordings such a reputation will only magnify itself.

Outstanding Collection of the Master in Many Moods.......2003-07-21
This is a great CD collection for the price. The breadth of Composers covered is impressive. The recordings are mix of early and later ones with the NBC orchestra. The Maestro the prime interpreter for fast tempos, is here sometimes more contemplative in such arrangements for Symp 1 and 2 for Beethoven. The sound quality is quite good, unless one has a very discriminating ear, the recordings should be very nice to listen to.

an excellent recording of a good second-tier symphony.......1999-09-23
I cannot say I agree with the previous reviewer's comments. Admittedly, this is not a first-rate symphony, but neither is the Saint-Saens 3rd nor the Franck nor any of the Elgar symphonies, yet they are more or less orchestra staples. What we have here is a late romantic symphony in the post-Schumann style, with interesting melodies, nice orchestration, and lovely atmosphere. I would highly recommend this for any listener interested in music of the period who don't expect Brahms or Mahler. There is more than a hint of Bruckner and Max Bruch.
The performance is excellent, well paced, beautiful ensemble work, and a nice solo in the Second Movement by George Ives on the cello. The filler pieces are also lovely and are a welcome addition to the disc. Ignore the previous review and treat yourself. If you must, sell off those boring Vaughn Williams symphonies and let yourself be carried away by this composer. Not caviar, but far from bland. By the way, the Second Symphony (also recorded by D'Avalos and the Philharmonia) is also recommended
Shades of Schumann, but Not Enough to be Interesting.......1998-11-23
Despite a fetching third movement allegretto and a Schumannesque first movement which I found attractive after several listenings, this symphony falls under the weight of a relentlessly boring second movement andante and a concluding movement which tries but fails (to my ears) to pull everything together by restating themese of the preceeding movements. Much of the musical material is of little interest; you'll certainly not walk away humming melodies to yourself. And even in the best moments of the symphony Martucci relies too often on orchestral tuttis to bring musical phrases to a conclusion; I found myself tired of the technique, even at first listening.The performances seem committed, and this disc was a winner of the "Grand Prix Du Disque de l'Academie Charles Cros", whatever that is. But I was bored by the music, the first of Martucci's that I have heard. I am not tempted to try more. .
