Buy Now	Simply Sarah (more) »rank: 14317 from: EMI Classics : :This is Sarah Chang's second encore collection, recorded when she was all of 15. (The debut recital was made when she was 9.) As in the previous collection, and most of her other recordings, Chang stays mostly with the Romantic era, although she does play the March from Prokofiev's Love for Three Oranges with a good deal of bite. This disc doesn't offer a profound musical experience, but if you like to be amazed by dazzling violin playing, it's a treat throughout.

Spilman, Supply Belcher, Felix Mendelssohn, Jean Sibelius, King of England Henry VIII, English Traditional, Gustav Holst, Paul Hillier, Anonymous, Theatre of Voices : :This is one of the most original and musically satisfying Christmas programs on disc. And it features some of the most characterful and proficient ensemble singing you'll find anywhere. It's not that the music is obscure--in fact, most of the texts and/or tunes are familiar. From early American settings of 'While shepherds watched' and 'The Apple Tree' to traditional Austrian and English carols such as 'Still, still, still,' and 'Greensleeves' (sung to different-than-usual words), we're treated to outstanding arrangements (by Paul Hillier) and often surprising variations of tunes we thought we knew. In several cases--'While shepherds watched' and 'Hark! The herald ...

Those concerts were free; these seven compact discs are not--not quite. But for any lover of light classical music, they are certainly one of the best buys available. The orchestra (essentially the Boston Symphony) is one of the world's greatest; the music, from Smoke Gets in Your Eyes to the Goyescas Intermezzo and Ride of the Valkyries is instantly enjoyable ...
