5 out of 5 stars I agree ..sorta.......2007-04-22

I agree with the previous review, I love how this group of musicians led by Uri are rearranging this old music, personally, I like some of the noise effects, I agree whole heartedly with the packaging comments, everytime I buy one of their products I get annoyed with their packaging!

4 out of 5 stars Mozart would enjoy these versions.......2007-03-07

This is another great release by Uri Caine and his circle of outstanding musicians. When you have the talent and the inspiration, sky is the limit. Mozart himself would probably enjoy these versions of his timeless classics. For my ears, several songs contain "noise", distractions from the real thing. If I could delete the noise sections, this would be a 5-star record for me. In the current shape, it is a flawed masterpiece. The CD cover is below the 1-5 stars scale and was not considered in the rating. People at the Winter & Winter label apparently find humor or some other form of satisfaction in packaging great music in covers that are irritating, user-unfriendly by design, potentially harmful to the CDs when you try to get them in and out, and texts are at times unreadable, on purpose I assume printed so that they can not be read. Sorry, I don't get this humor and unfortunately I have to pay for this nonsense. I am sure they know this very well and yet want to have fun at the expense of their customers. Still, I do recommend that you also check out Caine's other records, unfortunately on the same label with equally stupid covers: covers of Bach, Beethoven, Mahler, Wagner, plus more conventional jazz records. Plus great side man appearances on several Dave Douglas records. Enjoy!

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding .......2007-03-23

These performances are taken from the time when George Szell was the conductor of the Cleveland Symphony. They are magnificent performances, and the transfer to CD makes them sound better than the original LP in many cases.

I am absolutely loving to listen to these wonderful performances.

5 out of 5 stars Szell's Moazrt.......2007-03-14

No one has conducted MOzart the way Szell did. And this album has some of his best recordings with the Cleveland Orchestra. Not to be missed!

5 out of 5 stars No Chocolate Sauce..........2006-12-10

"There is a difference between the chaste sensuality of Mozart or Haydn and the lascivious sensuality of Richard Strauss. One cannot pour chocolate sauce over asparagus." George Szell

Sony's Original Jackets series continues with this release of the music of Mozart featuring (with a few exceptions) conductor and pianist George Szell. This is the second Original Jackets issue dedicated to Szell. The other, featuring Beethoven's Symphonies is also highly recommended. Sony has changed the format somewhat. Whereas the series initially rigidly adhered to the original LP programming, most of the CDs here are generously filled with bonus tracks. So much the better.

It must have taken some arm twisting on Szell's part to get Symphonies K. 200 and K. 319 recorded, as neither were repertoire staples in the 1960s (they still appear relatively rarely). Kudos to both Szell and Columbia for undertaking the project. Many of the other works here have been issued multiple times.

As with nearly everything else they recorded, the Szell/Cleveland combination brings forth performances of common sensibility and uncommon balance. The tempos and phrasing for each work and movement seem inevitable, and the performances are stripped of all phony Gemutlikeit. The various choirs of the orchestra are balanced with chamber-like precision, so that each voice is heard in proper perspective. This is even evident in the monaural recordings of three of the Symphonies, which are a tad more flexible than their stereo counterparts.

Szell, a co-pupil of Rudolf Serkin, was also a fine pianist. Szell's arrangement of Richard Strauss' Till Eulenspiegel (featuring sound effects from his cuff-links) is legendary. Both the Violin Sonatas and Piano Quartets show Szell as a sympathetic collaborator who was comfortable with ceding the spotlight to his partners. Szell was also an excellent collaborator in Concertos, as the Clarinet Concerto K. 622 with Robert Marcellus and the Piano Concerto K. 503 with Leon Fleischer demonstrate. Unlike, say, Toscanini, Szell did not feel the need to steamroll a soloist into complying with his own conception of a piece.

A few of the items here do not feature Szell as either pianist or conductor. The Leinsdorf conducted performance of the Minuet K. 409 - - charming, fluid, and transparent - - belies the notion that the Cleveland Orchestra was a second rate band until Szell came along. Likewise, Louis Lane, who was solidly in the Szell tradition of conducting, leads a superb performance of the Divertimento, K. 334. There are many in Cleveland, including myself, who feel Lane would have been a more appropriate successor to Szell than the eccentric Lorin Maazel.

The sound in the stereo items, recorded at Severance Hall, is greatly improved over previous issues. The location for the mono items is not documented, but to my ears it sounds like they were recorded at nearby Masonic Auditorium. The mono sonics are acceptable, if a bit boomy. Dynamics, which were constricted, have been opened up. The strings have lost their aggressive edge and have a sweeter, more natural character. It's well worth replacing the earlier issues of these recordings, and a must if you don't have them already.

4 out of 5 stars A famous Mozart conductor gets his due -- in spades.......2006-12-09

NOTE; Please ignore the large number of negative reviews here. They are from an anonymous Internet stalker.

At the height of his fame, George Szell was often praised by critics as the perfect Mozart conductor, a reputation that seems puzzling today. Today we get to hear many approaches to Mozart besides the kind exemplified here, which is fast, clipped, ultra-precise, and humorless. Shorn of elegance and reduced to a display of incredibly precise ensemble, Szell's Mozart can hardly be understood without realizing how dominant Toscanini was in the Forties and Fifties, when Szell rode in on his stylistic coattails. Strict disciplinarians make pretty sour concerts unless they possess Toscnini's genius, and Szell had at least that portion that could dazzle with virtuosity.

Given my opinion, why wuold I rate this big box set, which contains almost everything by Mozart that Szell ever recorded (or evverything Sony has decided to pluck from their Columbia and Epic archives)? Well, the music-making is dazzling, it must be admitted. Since Amazon doesn't give the contents of these 10 discs, I will copy the listing from the Crotchet, the British online store:

Symphony No.28 in C K200. Marriage of Figaro K492 : Overture. Symphony No.33 in B flat K319. Symphony No.35 in D K385 'Haffner'. Symphony No.39 in E flat K543. Symphony No.40 in G minor K550. Symphony No.41 in C K551 'Jupiter'. The Impresario K486 : Overture. Divertimento No.2 in D K131. Symphony No.41 in C K551 'Jupiter'. Sinfonia Concertante in E flat K364. Exsultate Jubilate K165. Serenade No.13 in G K525 'Eine kleine Nachtmusik'. Serenade No.9 in D K320 'Posthorn'. Divertimento No.17 in D K334. Lacrimosa. Minuet in C K409. Concerto for Clarinet and Orchestra in A K622. Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No.25 in C K503. Sonata for Piano and Violin No.24 in F K376. Sonata for Piano and Violin No.18 in G K301. Sonata for Piano and Violin No.21 in E minor K304. Sonata for Piano and Violin No.17 in C K296. Quartet for Keyboard Violin Viola and Cello in G minor K478. Quartet for Keyboard Violin Viola and Cello in E flat K493.

Sym. 39-41 are duplicated in mono and stereo (rather pointlessly since the performances are identical in every respect). Szell himself appears as pianist in the violini sonatas (with Cleveland Orch. concertmaster, Rafael Druian) and the piano quartet (in mono with members of the Budapest Qt.) Fleisher is the sazzling soloist in piano concerto (the concertos with Rudolf Serkin aren't included). The clarinet concerto is done by the orchestra's first char, Robert Marcellus. Druain reappears with the first-chair viola, Abraham Skemick for a dry-as-dust reading of the lovely E-flat Sinfonia Concertante. Judith Raskin is the superb soprano in Exultate Jubilate. To make matters confusing, the conductor of the Divertimento K. 334 isn't Szell at all but his assitant in Cleveland, Louis Lane, hwo does a reasonable job.

I don't know who wants this much of Szell's Mozart, but if I had to choose one cherishable recording, it would be the Posthorn Serenade, in which we get the usual precision but also a measure of charm and relaxation.

4 out of 5 stars Nice Yo-Yo Collection.......2003-07-14

"Yo-Yo Ma Plays Bach" is one of several titles in Sony's new "Music For You" Series, easily identified by their artsy, photographic covers. The material on this CD has been available previously on CBS Masterworks, and despite amazon's claim above in the title, I can find no indication in the liner notes that these digital recordings from the 1980s have been remastered. And that's not the only thing that's misleading about the title. True, Ma does play music by Bach, but it is sonatas (originally intended for viola da gamba and not cello) by Bach, and the Sinfonia Concertante by Bach's youngest son, Johann Christian Bach. Not that Sony is lying and not that most people will care or feel cheated, but since this title is obviously aimed at classical novices, I just thought I'd set the record straight. In a similar vein, hopefully those that discover both Bach and Yo-Yo Ma via this disc will like what they hear, and go on to get one of Ma's two recordings of the Bach "Cello Suites" -- the real yardstick for composer and performer alike.

    3 out of 5 stars Rostropovich Plays Prokofiev.......2006-12-27

    A couple of years ago, I was given a recording of the Symphony Concerto in E minor and the Concertino in G minor performed by Alexander Rudin and the National Symphony Orchestra of the Ukraine under Theodore Kuchin (as part of a NAXOS boxed set of the complete Symphonies and Concerti of Prokofiev). It was my first exposure to the cello works and I was immensely impressed with both pieces, but wanted to hear them performed by the master to whom they were dedicated. I purchased this recording and found it, on the whole, rather disappointing by comparison. Rostropovich's performance is, for the most part, technically fine but uninspired, almost passionless (of course, I'm comparing it with the other performance). Rozhdestvensky's interpretation of Prokofiev doesn't need comparison: it's just weak, whereas Theodore Kuchar and Rudin, with perhaps a slightly less polished orchestra, put on a brilliant and far richer performance. If you can find a copy of the Rudin recording, I strongly recommend comparing it with this one. Having heard this interpretation by Rostropovich, I'm shelving it in favor of the Rudin version. The minor flaws in the Ukrainian recording now seem insignificant against its much richer musical content.

    5 out of 5 stars Authorative Recordings.......2006-05-23

    This is an extraordinary disc of Sergei Prokofiev's music for cello played by the musician who directly influenced all of the music recorded here: Mstislav Rostropovich. The main work is the Symphony-Concerto for Cello and Orchestra, Op. 125, a work that does not get performed very often much less recorded. It reused the themes of the Cello Concerto Op. 58 but expanded the music. The Symphony is a marvelous piece for the cello and shows off the instrument so that this becomes a concerto within a symphony. The final movement is a theme and variations that ends with a thrilling coda where the cello, blithely singing away, is brought back to earth by several strokes on a side drum in the final bars.

    The Cello Concertino, Op. 132 is a delightfully melodious work written in a simple language seems aimed toward young people. At 19 minutes, the Concertino is as long as many concertos but the name is meant to reflect the intimate concept behind the music. The Concertino was written during Prokofiev's last year. The Cello Sonata, written in 1949 for Mstislav Rostropovich, is based on the same structure as the Violin Sonata with a slow opening movement followed by a Scherzo and completed with a finale using a sonata form. The work was first performed by Rostropovich and Sviatoslav Richter in 1950, and they are the performers in this recording from 1951.

    The Symphony-Concerto and Concertino are marvelously played by the State Symphony Orchestra of the USSR conducted by Gennady Rozhdestvensky. The sound (from 1960 and 1964) is good but not what we are used to with digital recordings. The Sonata has some moments of distortion but the recording is good and of historical importance coming from Prokofiev's lifetime. If you are deeply interested on Prokofiev's cello music and his collaboration with Rostropovich, this is a must have disc.

            The music of Mauro Giuliani (1781-1829) has great appeal for guitarists, and practically nobody else. It is lightweight almost to the vanishing point, and I've seldom heard a piece of his that stuck in my mind. But he did write plenty of music for the guitar, providing the instrument with some classical period repertoire. (His contemporary Sor wrote much better music, but he was only one composer.) The Serenade is the most interesting piece here, while the Duo Concertante goes on a lot longer than its material justifies. Fine performances by all, but this is still a disc for very specialized tastes. --Leslie Gerber

            4 out of 5 stars very pleasant, very Italian.......1999-12-19

            The only point I agree with Amazon's reviewer is that the serenade is the best piece on this CD. No, I am not a guitarist, but Giuliani's music is appealing to me, unlike music of nail-biting late Romantics, brain-drilling Shostakovich, boring-like-watching-golf Hindemith and most of other XX Century composers who get all the worship of critics. I also disagree that Sor wrote better music; he was more productive, than Giuliani, but also a very uneven composer, who wrote, along with some masterpieces, tons of quite unremarkable stuff. And if Giuliani's music was (quote) lightweight on the point of vanishing, it could not had survived almost 2 centuries. As I have heard, he originally wrote the Serenade for flute, guitar and cello. If that is true, it is somewhat surprising that James Gallway yielded this piece to a violin (or, if I am wrong, why did not he transcribe it for flute, like he transcribes almost everything else?). I did not give 5 stars because I do not appreciate track duplications (the first track, this is one third of this CD, first appeared on Italian Serenade CD in this same recording). Overall, nice music full of pleasant melodies in a typical Italian style.

            5 out of 5 stars Relaxing music deliverd elagantly........1999-03-12

            While Giuliani has been criticized for being a slight composer, he did right fun, relaxing and invigorating music. Ok, it isn't quite the caliber of someone like Mozart or Beethoven, but there is a refined elegance and a nice tunefulness which really comes through with the virtuosity of the performers, besides, not everyone can be a Mozart... The melodies are familiar and hearing that makes one feel good. Overall, the sound and the Musicianship are really worth it.
