CD Reviews

If this is classical, I'm hooked.

Mark Thorne | Pittsfield, Mass, US | 09/10/1998

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I ordered this CD simply after having listened to the selection entitled "Anahid" on public radio. Don't be dismayed when you listen to the title piece; "And God Created Great Whales" is totally out of context with the rest of the CD. The remaining hour of music is a breathtaking performance of strings and flute that ranges from pastoral to incredibly uplifting. Admittedly a classical neophyte, I don't have the vocabulary to review this work properly - you just have to buy this CD and hear for yourself. Absolutely wonderful!"

Refreshing, inspiring, uplifting...

"For me (a Neophyte also), it was the "Concerto for Orchestra No 8" on public radio... 30 seconds into the Andante, it had got my attention; 30 seconds into the Moderato, it had lifted me; 30 seconds into the 2nd Andante, I was sure I wanted the CD.I wasn't disappointed. Give it a listen."
