Customer Reviews:
less than satisfying..........2005-03-17
I'm afraid this is the least satisfying performance of these fantastic works I've heard to date. The violin sounded weak and uncertain, the piano overwhelming and a bit bombastic, and the Ives idiom seemed missing thruout.
Why oh why doesn't Philips re-release the Druian/Simms performances? So far, none have compared to those guys. OK, I haven't heard Thompson/Waters yet & am looking forward to that. And from what I heard over the web, Fulkerson/Shannon sound encouraging, if you have enough equity in your home to second-mortgage it - I also thought the Zukofsky one was OK, but again not comparable to Druian/Simms, and I gather also no longer available.
Someone needs to rattle Philips' cage on this. I don't think it takes too many letters for them to maybe re-release. I'm starting right now. Join me?
