Customer Reviews:
Only half the songs of the original set!!.......2007-01-17
Although I love the CDs, I was disappointed that there were only about half of the songs I thought there would be. I bought the original double cassette set back in the early 90's and when I found the CDs with the same name and cover, I thought I was getting the same thing only on CD. But the Cassettes had twice as many songs, including Let it Snow,Have Yourself a merry Little Christmas,The First Noel, Jingle Bells by Jim Reeves, The Christmas song by the Carpenters and so many others!!
Its all Christmas.......2007-01-09
It reminded me of Christmas as a child. I played this all throughout the holidays.
A Good Basic Collection.......2006-02-11
This is a good, basic collection of Christmas Music. As a general rule, Time-Life has selected what is probably the definative artist/arangement of each song.
My only complaints are that there are only 24 songs on two disks and one or two of them are not ones that I would have picked (not my style).
Overall, it's a good set that I would recommend to anyone who wants to start a collection.
cd reviews.......2006-01-15
this cd was very good, much recommended
Poor Quality.......2005-12-05
The only good thing about this collection is the inclusion of so many Christmas standards. I was very disappointed in the quality of the recordings, they obviously need digital inhancement.

A disc to be treasured.......2002-09-28
This extraordinary recording recalls those great artistic pairings that inseparably combine music with the amor patriae of a fervent musician: Arthur Rubinstein playing Chopin and Szymanowski; Alicia de Larrocha playing Albéniz and Granados; and now, Juana Zayas interpreting Cervantes, Caturla, Hernández, and Lecuona. Cuban-born Zayas-whose landmark recording of the Chopin études placed her among our consummate Chopin interpreters-completely identifies with the music of her compatriots.
Zayas left Havana for the Paris Conservatory in her late teens, as did Ignacio Cervantes (1847-1905) nearly a century earlier. His piquantly syncopated Cuban dances-30 of which are presented here-feature lively tango-habanera rhythms and folk-based elements, infused with insouciance, humor and nostalgia. Their quirky titles-Three Knocks, The Charmer, Farewell to Cuba, The Jealous One, Interrupted, Lost Illusions, to name a few-bring to mind other engaging collections of piano works, such as Alkan's Esquisses or Mendelssohn's Songs Without Words.
The name of Alejandro Caturla (1906-1940) will be unknown to most music lovers. None of his music is listed in the Schwann catalog. He gave a classical cast to Afro-Cuban influences, similar to what Albéniz achieved with his Iberia and Suite española. Caturla's Danza del tambor brings to mind the sharp rhythmic allure and dissonance of Bartók or Ginastera, while the gently affecting Pastoral Lullaby, a folk-based guajira, lingers long after its three minutes have passed.
Gifted in a number of fields, Caturla became a lawyer and judge, only to be assassinated by an irate defendant. Each of these composers became politically aware by necessity, given their country's long history of instability. Gisela Hernández (1912-1971) established ties to the Castro Government, which quickly recognized her teaching and compositional abilities. She was also instrumental in publishing the critical editions of Cervantes's music. Among her Cubanas represented here, Guajira is touched with the same gently rocking melancholy as Caturla's piece.
The music of Ernesto Lecuona (1896-1963) is the most often recorded of the four. As with Caturla, he was largely self-taught. His Afro-Cuban Dances are especially appealing; one cannot listen just once to these captivating pieces.
Zayas brings a beguiling zest and wit to the entire disc, all imbued with a native rhythmic sense. Realistically recorded, her generous, spirited playing inevitably brings a smile, evokes an affecting melancholy or warmly lifts one's mood. In contrast to the refinement of Zayas's playing, the awkwardly written and occasionally misspelled booklet notes represent the only drawback to an altogether inspired project.
Lost and Found Freedom.......2001-10-09
Most of the Cuban music Ms. Zayas plays in this wonderful CD are pieces from the past, lost to many Cubans, like myself. What a joy it was for me to discover this CD as I searched the web! I was aware of Ms. Zayas's magnificent technique, for I have heard her play live Chopin's Piano Concerto in F at a concert in Florida-not an easy piece to play, for it needs not only a great technique but a lot of heart as well. That is why I was expecting this CD of Cuban Music to be played brilliantly and with a love of heart. And that much I got, and a lot more, for Ms. Zayas has also a fantastic sense of rhythm-the kind most "classical musicians" do not have-and she makes these pieces (most of which are Cuban dances) move with passionate ease and abandon, the way Cuban men and women love to move as they dance and make love. I was told she is planning to record Chopin's mazurkas (which are also dances), so I cannot wait for the new CD to come out. Ms. Zayas found lost old music and played it with a freedom that one seldom if ever hears in the classical music world. Bravo for her. Let's have some more.
Elegance is the Key in Zayas' Recording.......2001-05-24
When listening to this beautiful recording, one realizes that the pianist is an artist of intelligence and nuance. I own seven versions of Cervantes' Danzas, including a very rare version of another great Cuban pianist of yesteryear, Yvette Hernández. I play all my Cervantes recordings quite often, and I must admit that I enjoy Ms. Zayas' recording the best. In her hands, the apparently simple music of Ignacio Cervantes is treated with such care, intelligence and finesse, that this simplicity is transformed into the sheer beauty of many brilliant colors, as precious and perfect as small jewls in an elegant necklece. Zayas brings Cervantes' music to the high level it deserves, saving it, for the pleasure of our ears, from the cursory and careless fashion in which, unfortunately, many pianists play such delicious piano miniatures.
Lecuona's piano music can be and has been played in all sorts of ways. Because his music has been so popular and popularized, many listeners may object to the classical treatment these Lecuona pieces recieve in Ms. Zayas' hands. There is a very dynamic tension which exists in the "soul" of Lecuona's music, between the African and the European elements which permeate it. The true universal projection of Lecuona's classical music resides, precisely, in a successful interpretation, on the part of the sensitive pianist, who is able to capitalize on this tension, without overemphasizing either of these two musical influences. Ms. Zayas shows great sensitivity to the music, by keeping the precise balance. This is a wonderful recording for all those who want to enjoy great Cuban classical piano music which is truly Classical. Those who, perhaps, want to dance by Zayas' interpretation of Lecuona will be sorely disappointed. However, if you want to enjoy truly Cuban classical piano music, in which all the musical elements, as intended by the composer, are drawn from the keyboard in a most elegant, balanced and beautiful manner, then you will enjoy this recording as much as I have.
"In praise of a true artist".......2001-05-06
As a music lover and aficionado, I was amused, to say the least, by the recent barrage of disinformation that has taken place regarding Juana Zayas's recording of Cuban music. To the insightful observer,however, the disinformation in question obviously comes from a single source and it is every bit as malicious as it is desperate.... Very pathetic indeed! Ms. Zayas's artistry and enormous talent have been amply demonstrated in her concerts and recordings as well as praised by the most eminent and demanding critics, period.
NO REFINEMENT, NO CLASS, TOTALLY OVER-RATED RECORDING.......2001-05-04
What a total failure. Complete and total vulgarity! No kind of tone whatsover-no technique, no phrasing-hesitations and pauses galore facilitating lack of technical and musical prowess. Inner voices-where? There is NO voice. There is NOTHING stylistically Cuban, 19th century or otherwise about this artist's rendering. It's truly amazing that a pianist who managed to produce a decent Chopin Etude CD (extremely overrated however, and possibly produced through enormous editing) would dish up this kind of junk. Ms. Zayas is a good pianist, but she is NOT an important ARTIST. She plays piano well, but leaves no artistic statement.
There are numerous recordings of the Cervantes that are much better. Fernandez, Pelaez, even Spengler's recordings of these works are 100 times better. Nothing to praise here: phrasing, pedaling, sound, and interpretations are routine at best. The Caturla..not much to compare them with in recording availability. But the Lecuona is the just awful.
I thank GOD for the recordings of Tirino on Lecuona. Zayas has no taste or refinement in these works. Soupy, gobbledy goop that is affected, mannered, and full of ego with lack of technique is her legacy here. Subtelties-where? how? How could anyone with an ear possibly even imagine this better than Tirino's Lecuona Danzas Cubanas on BIS label? Tirino's discs have refinement, poise, style, class, rich ringing beautiful tone, aristocratic refinement of sound, and technique that one just doesen't hear in pianists today-he's a World Class ARTIST. It seems frankly a bit odd to see such negative comments about him-and only here-since he has received accolades world-wide. I agree, Tirino's recordings are also uncannily similar to Lecuona's own on RCA-LA COMPARSA especially. He understands the contrasts necessary to the danza form, projecting the Lecuona style better than anyone. We might not even be having a resurgence of Lecuona's music had it not been for him and his irreproachable recordings. BIS' audiophile sound is known throughout world: The sound on this disc however sounds like she is playing underwater off the Florida coast!
I suggest the Fernandez and Pelaez recordings for Cervantes over Zayas. For Lecuona-Tirino has recorded the music in 5 Volumes on BIS, one better than the next-clearly the choice here. I really like Lecuona's own on RCA/BMG to have with Tirino's.
Don't waste your time, money, or ears on this disc here.

Album Description
The Caecilia-Concert presents a varied selection of pieces composed during the seventeenth century in different styles. These compositions can be roughly categorized into three genres that existed alongside each other: vocal polyphony, diminutions based on vocal music, and instrumental music. Individually, the members of the Caecilia-Concert hold prominent positions in several of the leading period instrument ensembles, including the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra (Ton Koopman) and The English Baroque Soloists (Sir John Eliot Gardiner). Collectively, as the Caecilia-Concert, they have performed in festivals and prestigious venues across Europe, including Holland festival Oude Muziek, Itinéraire Baroque, and London's Purcell Room. The Caecilia-Concert is named after the first Dutch Collegium Musicum founded in Arnhem in 1591, which was dedicated to Saint Caecilia, the patroness of music.
