Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Very enjoyableCongratulations to Naxos for compiling this fine CD. The genre of romantic film music is admirably represented here in works from the 1940s and 50s, and gets first-rate performances and commitment from Fowke and the RTE Orchestra conducted by Ó Duinn. Rating: - Mr. M. F. Allen has strange hearing(or Hi~Fi)I can only agree with Dr Scott. Quite what disc Mr. M. F. Allen was listening to,and with what equipment I don't know. However his whole review sounds more like a rant,than a balanced and informative review. As this is a Naxos disc it is budget price as well, and certainly worth adding to your collection. Rating: - Indulgent but beautifulPlease ignore the review below - the gentleman quite clearly has cloth in his ears. This is a splendid collection of "artificial" piano concertos from the golden age of cinema, the best known being the Warsaw Concerto. Philip Fowke is admirably partnered by his Irish conductor and orchestra and they give these slight but gorgeous scores their all. In particular, the Warsaw Concerto comes off splendidly well in EXCELLENT SOUND. Richard Rodney Bennett's waltz from Murder on the Orient Express is another winner. This is a super selection if you have a taste for romantic piano concertos. Great stuff. Rating:  - Totally disappointingThe 'Warsaw Concerto' is one of my favourite pieces of music as are some of the other tracks on this CD. I do not know when this was recorded but the standard is very poor and, to my ears, unacceptable. I do have a number of early CDs but this cannot compare. A poor recording or transfer to CD I do not know but it is not worth wasting money to purchase this miserable offering. |
