Mozart: The Symphonies»rank: 1567from: Telarc
0ur opinion: :Musical scholar that he is, Charles Mackerras adopts period performance practice, but opts for modern instruments. The Prague Chamber 0rchestra is one of the world's best small ensembles. They play this music with impeccable wit, sophistication, and style. 0f course, Mackerras himself studied in Prague--Mozart's musical home away from home--and has long enjoyed an excellent relationship with the city's orchestras and musicians. With swift tempos, employment of a harpsichord accompaniment, and all the repeats taken ...

A State of Wonder: The Complete Goldberg Variations (1955 & 1981)»rank: 2038by: Johann Sebastian Bach, Glenn Gould, Tim Page
0ur opinion: :Glenn Gould's recording debut in 1955 of Bach's Goldberg Variations took the world by storm. His decidedly un-Romantic view, absolute technical skill, startling lucidity, and right-on rhythmic changes, combined with his eccentricities--audible humming, sometimes outrageously fast tempi--made him an instantly legendary pianist and elucidated Bach's music in a whole new way. Gould's final recording, 26 years later, was also of the Goldbergs. lt's a more relaxed, sometimes much slower, more inward reading (although still very ...
