3 out of 5 stars Almost really good........2006-06-30

I love Prokofiev. But I hate Yank crap. It has spoiled a great compilation. It was beautiful, up until 'Peter and the Wolf', one of my favourite adventures. But then along came an American narrator explaining the story. Why is there this 'Disney' crap amidst some beautiful music? (All respects to Walt).
'Lieutenant Kije' is one of the best stories produced by humanity of a man who did not exist throughout his birth, marriage and death. Don't let this piece of brilliance be swamped by crap.
A good compilation, but I strongly suggest you go for untainted versions of Prokofiev.
P.S. The Daleks will eventually conquer staircases. Be warned. Three oranges are not enough.

5 out of 5 stars An excellent primer on the iconclastic Russian composer.......2001-08-12

I have to admit I was a bit disappointed there was nothing from Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 3, which is what the Amy Irving character played in the film, "The Competition." I also think it is one of the iconoclastic composer's finest works. What you will find on this collection are a lot of excerpts from his score for the film "Lieutenant Kije" and symphonic fairy tale "Peter and the Wolf." Again, I am surprised there is nothing here from his film scores for "Alexander Nevsky" or "Ivan the Terrible." My favorite "new" piece that I discovered on this CD would be the March from "The Love for Three Oranges," although I also like the excerpt from Prokofiev's Classical Symphony in D Major. Despite my personal preferences, I have to admit this collection is a very nice introduction to the music of Sergei Sergeivich Prokofiev.

5 out of 5 stars The soul of Klezmer .......2006-05-17

Giora is arguably the greatest Klezmer musician in the world. He plays with a feeling and soul which move and surprise. He also seems to arrive at places with his clarinet where no one else can. However great it is to listen to him his music is enhanced by seeing him perform. So it is not enough to listen to even the best of his music but it is necessary to fully appreciate his work, to go and see and hear him play.

5 out of 5 stars Great klezmer music!.......2005-03-22

On many of its tracks, you need to be tied down not to start moving in time to the music. It's great! As my mother would have said, "Try it, you'll like it!" -- maybe with a "buballa" thrown in.

This is the first review I've written, but I was enjoying the music so much, I had to take the time to share my joy.

5 out of 5 stars Giora the magician.......2001-06-19

Giora has the ability to make his clarinet sing...songs of joy, and songs of woe. He gets sounds one wouldn't think possible, and with so much emotion...to quote him: "I use the clarinet to express myself, to transfer to others my inner voice".

Classically trained in Buenos Aires, Argentina (his birthplace), he has become the "undisputed King of Klezmer". On this 1985 recording, Giora plays clarinet and bass clarinet, with a small back-up band consisting mostly of guitars, double bass, and percussion...the total running time is 62:05.

Of the 15 tracks, favorites are "The Mothers in Law" and "Halaka"...track # 14 is a wonderful Gershwin medley, and how he transforms this very American music into Jewish soul music is a marvel. To quote Leonard Bernstein: "Long live Giora, his clarinet and his Soul Music. He bridges many gaps...generational, cultural, and social, and he does it with consumate artistry".

Amazon.com essential recording

This is the Prokofiev concerto cycle for the digital age. Yefim Bronfman relishes every steely flourish of this brilliant and angular music. His performance of the Second Concerto, Prokofiev's best but not most popular, really does achieve transcendent greatness. The first movement features a "cadenza from hell"--a solo section comprising almost half the movement--that has to be heard to be believed. Bronfman flies through it, fingers sweeping the keyboard to the point where you fear for the health of his piano. The Fourth Concerto is for left hand only and is the least well known of the five. Bronfman makes the best possible case for it, and the charming overture is a delightful bonus. --David Hurwitz

3 out of 5 stars Prokofiev 2nd - Surprised was not better.......2007-03-11

I purchased this mostly for the Prokofiev 2nd which is one of my favorites. I am not a big fan of the Prokofiev 4th, thus my comments are limited to the 2nd.

Prior to purchasing the CD, I had the chance to hear Bronfman play the Prokofiev 2nd at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC with the National Symphony Orchestra (with whom he also performed the 3rd on another date.) In the live performances, Bronfman's playing was far more vivacious and less studious than on this recording. As others have noted, Bronfman takes the piece too much in stride, and the orchestra also is just going through the paces. On the plus side, the quality of the recording is well balanced between orchestra and piano which is a challenge given the dynamics of the piece.

As for being the best available recording of the 2nd, I would put it behind the Gutierrez/Jarvi/Royal Concertgebouw recording still available on Chandos. Shura Cherkassky's performance with the London Philharmonic (BBC recording)is also available and more satisfying even if he does miss a few notes and invent a few others along the way (he was age 80+ at the time).

As for the best recording of the 2nd, my vote goes for Jorge Bolet's performance with the Cincinnati Orchestra which was issued on a Remington LP in the 1950's and (re-released on Turnabout in the 1970's). Bolet and conductor Thor Johnson provide a whirlwind performance that at times is over the top, but totally engaging from start to finish. I wish someone would rediscover those tapes and reissue it.

4 out of 5 stars Amazon reviewer makes bold statement..........2005-12-10

....and is dead on; while Prokofiev's 2nd concerto lacks the sophistication and compositional genius of the 3rd it is superior for two reasons: 1) it is more idiomatic 2) it is more personal. The audience was utterly baffled at the premiere, the world shocked, why? just listen! who else writes like this? Not only is this a prime example of Prokofiev's iconoclastic style - a romp through a truly gothic sound world -- but it is also one of his most personal, a romantic concerto written by an anti-romantic in response to a friends letter that stated, "I've written to tell you the latest news: I've shot myself. The reasons are unimportant." It lacks sophistication because it is barbaric, raw and utterly tempestuous.

Bromfman is not a risk taker (Pogorelich), a method actor (Richter), nor a character actor (Rubenstein); Bromfman basically plays what's on the page like Ashkenazy albeit in this case with the requisite gravitas. It's unfortunate the demand for this concerto has not fueled more interpretation; for the time being this really is the only worthwhile recording.

3 out of 5 stars Lacklustre, indeed.......2004-12-19

I used to like these performances, but over time it has begun to appear to me that they aren't that good. Bronfman's technique so easily matches Prokofiev's challenges that he sounds almost bored with them. I don't see why Hurwitz thinks Bronfman's piano is in danger, if you consider that he rips through the music so effortlessly and, indeed, with little interest. By contrast, try Alexander Toradze's hyper-furious take on the G minor. He makes things too elephantine perhaps, but it's more interesting than what we get here.

3 out of 5 stars lackluster but well recorded.......2004-04-17

i've admired bronfman's playing primarily through the beautiful series of chamber discs he recorded with mintz; against that standard these prokofiev concertos are a disappointment. the overall approach is surprisingly literal and metronomic, with a lack of lyrical fire or virtuosic ice, and tempos (especially in the outer movements) that are slower than usual. soloist and conductor seem to play in parallel rather than in close partnership. (it's as if bronfman and mehta were thrown into the studio without enough rehearsal time.) all the keyboard notes are perfectly in place, and the orchestral detail is exceptionally clear, but these are recordings better suited for studying the performance score than for encountering the full range of prokofiev's unique poetry.

5 out of 5 stars Best Prokofiev Recording Available.......2001-08-02

Yefim Bronfman & Zubin Mehta have joined forces to produce one of the best recordings of any Prokofiev work. In particular, the 2nd Piano Concerto is as fine a recording as you are ever likely to hear, of anything. Clear, clean, superbly performed and immaculately recorded, it is virtually flawless. Mr. Bronfman's cadenzas are nothing short of spectacular, and the piano as recorded is as clear as if you were playing it yourself. One of the great all-time discs, this is certainly the definitive version of these pieces, majestically paced and emotionally and technically perfect. Highly recommended.

          There is not much to say about this album. I didnt know Klezmer before and I am far from being an expert now... this music just hit me like few music pieces ever before or after.. up to now I must have heard it more than a hundred times and still I wont get bored or tired of it..

          5 out of 5 stars The Bright Shining Start of Klezmer Music.......2005-07-25

          Not being a music critic, I can only tell you how I feel about this album. Giora Fiedman's Dance of Joy was my introduction to klezmer music or, for that matter, Jewish music. I bought the tape in Paris when it first came out and I fell in love with every note he played. I love Klezmer music and have since listened to other popular klezmer groups and I have liked them, but for me Giora is still the bright shining star. He is my first love. He is to klezmer what Astor Piazzolla is to tango. This album, in particular, is special although I have others in my collection. It is still fresh and timeless. I have it in the tape version. I do not know the quality of the CD.

          5 out of 5 stars An intense source of joy and pleasure.......2001-02-04

          It was through total coincidence that i discovered this album on my way back home after a tiring workday, in my friend's car. As the clarinet started sounding through a perfect sound system I was suddenly drawn into a mystic, light atmosphere surrounded with pastel colors where figures were dancing to and fro. The whole day's stress disappeared instantly, I felt light and part of this dreamworld. It was many minutes later that I realised I had stopped talking to my friend, and my eyes were closed. When I opened my eyes, there she was smiling. She had been watching me. She said "I new this would happen". Next day I was hunting for this album all over the city, not just for myself but also to use in my emotional intelligence workshops for professionals.
