. Sibelius - Symphonies Nos 1 & 4CD-Charts > Music > Davis- Sir Colin by: London Symphony Orchestra Release Date January 01, 1997 This coupling of the Sibelius First and Fourth Symphonies represents the best performances in Davis' RCA series and noticeably better recordings, too. The First Symphony is the best version I have heard, even surpassing Ashkenazy. Davis maintains a compelling grip that doesn't falter, even in his rather broad introduction of the first movement. Throughout, there is an admirable feeling of proportion and architecture and a touching valediction as well. Even in the powerful climaxes, details that usually get obscured in other performances come through here with clarity, due in part to the cleanly delineated recording. Davis gives a reading of the Fourth which can also compete with the best. His view inhabits the world of Freudian mysticism with ... Read More: |

. 20th-Century Piano Concertos, Vol.1CD-Charts > Music > Davis- Sir Colin from: Duo Release Date April 19, 1999 This is not a collection of well-known 'favourites'. It does contain works by highly celebrated composers (eg. Ravel, Prokoviev, and Stravinsky), but the only pleasure for a "hundred best tunes" listener will be Gershwin's popular 'Rhapsody in Blue'. But this is still a delightful compilation: Ravel's rarely performed concerto 'for left hand only' is delightfully contrasted by the Gershwin rhapsody before it, and the whole collection appears to have been put together with much musicality. Fans of Gershwin will enjoy his piano concerto, but it has little of the energy found in 'Rhapsody in Blue'. Similarly, Stravinsky's piano concerto is rather disappointing. But these pieces help to give a full picture of music in the early twentieth century. ... Read More: |

. Verdi: Il TrovatoreCD-Charts > Music > Davis- Sir Colin from: Duo Release Date May 01, 1995 First of all I have a confession to make. At the moment I don't have the complete opera, only the highlights which was bought in error in a hurry at the airport in Athens two weeks ago. I thought that what I had bought was the complete opera and was really pleased that I had found it and my disappointment was even bigger when I realized it was only the highlight edition of the opera. And after listening to the highlights I have now ordered the "real stuff" because I can't go on without knowing what's supposed to be in between the songs on my disc...... This recording is from 1981 and all the singers are in good form, some more than others. In my opinion Katia Ricciarelli sings wonderful. Some critics have said that her voice was only good ...
