"The best of the three. Just chello and violin which brought to life the sessions with Maturin and Jack at sea."

Another Triumph!!!

"I have always thought the Music with the Captain series has been over orchestrated, and that the music should be boiled down to it's purest form, the violin, the cello.



Now it appears they are closer to my ideal. As good as the first two are this ,the third, goes a long way towards approximating the sound of the cabin of Aubrey as he and Maturin 'scrape, scrape away'. Maybe on the fourth they will revisit the Locatelli and play it on salt air worn, tired, strings. Ok maybe that would be too pure.



Add this one, it is a gem."

Wish there was more!

"Purchased this CD a while ago. A week doesn't go by without listening to it. Well recorded and the prescense of Yosif Feigelson's Cello is just wonderful. It is unfortunate that there hasn't been a follow up featuring Feigelson on the Cello. What a remarkable musician. This is such a delight to listen to.

Hopefully someday there will be more."
