composed by Andrew T. Miller, Spoken Word

Seattle-based composer Andrew T. Miller's cantata The Birth of Christ received its premiere in Dublin in 2006. Its performance was hailed as a landmark event because it brought together Catholic and Protestant choirs. It would be good to report that its musical quality was as significant as its humanitarian achievement, but as a whole, the music ...

composed by Gustav Mahler, Spoken Word

Opinions differ on how to interpret Mahler's Symphony No. 3, a work of such convoluted material, extreme contrasts, and immense proportions that it inevitably invites disagreements. But few can deny that Benjamin Zander has elicited a brilliant performance from the Philharmonia Orchestra, or that his reading is thoughtful and provocative in the ...

Debussy: Préludes (1996) more music like this

performed by Jean-Yves Thibaudet (piano)
composed by Claude Debussy, Spoken Word

Here are two well filled, sensitively rendered discs, the first volume in a complete traversal of Debussy's solo piano music. Robert Casadesus and Paul Jacobs have traveled this highway with acclaim, and Thibaudet makes his mark here now to impressive effect, as well. While his The Engulfed Cathedral may be a bit stiff and slow, his Arabesques ...

performed by Benjamin Zander (speech/speaker/speaking part), Christopher Maltman (baritone), Benjamin Zander (conductor)
composed by Gustav Mahler, Spoken Word

Benjamin Zander and the Philharmonia's recording of Mahler's First Symphony coupled with his "Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen" sung by baritone Christopher Maltman is not only the best Mahler's First in decades, it is one of the great recorded performances. Yes, sometimes it is almost a little bit too much. The parody woodwinds in the music do get ...

composed by Richard Wagner, Spoken Word

If you love Wagner, sooner or later you'll have to get one of the two Furtwängler Rings. Even if antique sound makes you crazy and excruciatingly bad orchestral playing drives you mad, you'll have to get a Furtwängler Ring. Because, despite the invariably terrible sound and the undeniably awful playing, a Furtwängler Ring does something no ...

composed by Andrea Catozzi, César Franck, Edmund Haines, Ernst Paudert, Henry Fillmore, Jacques-François Gallay, Jean-Baptiste Arban, Ludwig van Beethoven, Richard Wagner, Spoken Word, Victor Ewald [Evald]

Arnold Jacobs was a totally unique figure among tuba players, able to control all aspects of his tone production and capable of an almost supernatural ability to project his sound. Jacobs spent 44 years in the tuba section of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, and though his distinctive tone penetrates through Chicago's orchestral recordings of that ...

composed by Edward Elgar, Spoken Word

Anybody who loves the orchestral music of English composer Edward Elgar -- the brilliant Enigma Variations, the passionate Violin Concerto, the heartrending Cello Concerto, the magnificent symphonies, the spectacular overtures, and the virtuosic Bach and Handel transcriptions -- will sooner or later have to deal with his three sacred oratorios: ...

performed by Jon Vickers (tenor), Maria Callas (soprano), Montserrat Caballé (vocals), Plácido Domingo (tenor), Sherrill Milnes (vocals), Victor Godfrey (baritone), Philharmonia Chorus (choir, chorus)
composed by Johannes Brahms, Spoken Word

They don't make recordings of Brahms' Fourths like this 1970 performance by Carlo Maria Giulini and the Chicago Symphony anymore. The reason for this is that there are very, very few conductors of Giulini's stature making recordings anymore. Brahms' Fourth is the most passionately pessimistic and the most inexorably despairing symphony of the ...
