I remember this album like it was yesterday. I have the albums and the remixes, plus all the videos which I need to transfere onto disc. The album so red the rose was an awaited project from the three members of Duran Duran, Simon, Nick & Roger. If you have any taste in music your will appreciate this album with nothing to loose. The album is a work of art along with the cover and pictures. Th...

I really liked this CD! It sounded light and airy and very "original baroque." I find it's a wonderful thing to listen to when you're cleaning up the house because it sounds great in the background too. Most of the ballet excerps are light and have a good beat. The only thing I didn't like is that they played the kazoo on one peice; it was funny once, but then I thought it was a little inapropr...

Rameau had a hard-earned reputation as an opera composer and his timing was terrible. He got caught up in the battle between the followers of Lully and those of his own new French school. The battle was, however, pretty much won after Rameau's first opera, 'Hyppolite et Aricie,' written four years before 'Castor et Pollux.' With his second opera in 1737 public opinion swung strongly his direction,...

This recording is excellent and the Aradia Ensemble just seems to get better and better with every recording. This recording presents us with eight symphonies by William Boyce. These works have a very agreeable late Baroque flavour to them.
Boyce was not quite in the same league as Handel, Haydn or Rameau, but his music is, nonetheless, very beguiling and attractive. A solo for the flute in...

The works recorded here illustrate Buxtehude's masterful command of the huge variety of styles that characterized the sacred cantata in Germany during the seventeenth century. Each begins with an instrumental passage, and sung text is interspersed with instrumental responses, sometimes in strophic form. In the larger cantatas for all three voices, the music allows for the maximum of contrast, wher...
