CD Reviews

Flute Fantasies
Stephen O'Donnell | Scone, Perthshire United Kingdom | 09/30/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"HelloIf you're wanting to know the content of this CD then I'll go straight ahead. Grovlez, Gaubert, Enesco, Sancan, Taffanel, Busser, Ganne, and the most spectacular: Faure. My favourite piece on this Digital CD would have to be Fantasie by Faure as I frequently play it myself. This collection of marvelous French flute pieces is spectacular and I thourgly enjoy listening to itSusan Milan has the most amazing soft playing, but can also be very strong. Her vibrato is the most immense I've ever heard. And Ian Brown, well where do I start? The guy's a genius. The way he ticles the keys giving off a smooth and delicate sound, always in time.This is a definite 5 star rating It's a wonderful CD to listen to whist going to sleep which slowly sends you off into an amazing dream, hence the name "Fantasie"I thorouly recomend it, Stephen O'Donnell"
Vibrato overkill!

(3 out of 5 stars)

"While I agree that Susan Milan has an incredible sound, her vibrato completely overshadows it. I've played many of the pieces on this CD. The French composers are great. One reviewer called her vibrato "immense". That is not a good thing. Her vibrato never varies. It's always the same. Variations of vibrato are a must for any flute player. Different types of music call for different types of vibrato to be used. I'm sorry to disagree with the 5 stars, but I couldn't get past that. Overall, it was really quite annoying."
