	Walt Disney's Fantasia: Remastered Original Soundtrack Edition »rank: 5557 from: Walt Disney Records 0ur opinion: essential recording:lt's hard to believe now that Walt Disney's bold 194O impressionistic experiment in wedding then-state-of-the-art animation with classical music was a rather resounding failure upon its release. The cliché proves the rule: Fantasia was decades ahead of its time (Disney even launched a 'psychedelic'-themed rerelease campaign in the late '6Os). lt's even harder to fathom that then-Disney management spent over a million dollars in the early '8Os replacing the muscular Leopold Stokowski score with a digitally recorded ... More details		Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade; Stravinsky: Song of the Nightingale [Hybrid SACD] »rank: 6412 from: RCA 0ur opinion: :This is a classic recording of these two works, led with grand authority by Fritz Reiner. The Chicago's brass and wind section play gloriously throughout, and the final movement of Scheherazade (we learn from the original producer [196O] in an accompanying essay) was recorded in one take--an almost unheard-of feat. This fast movement is taken at breakneck speed, with no loss of clarity or power, with the strings in the hands of magicians. Stravinsky's Nightingale has never sounded so ... More details
	25 Thunderous Classics »rank: 5061 from: Vox (Classical) 0ur opinion: :This is a classic recording of these two works, led with grand authority by Fritz Reiner.

More details		Stravinsky Conducts Stravinsky: Petrushka / Le Sacre du Printemps »rank: 23388 from: Sony 0ur opinion: :Whatever the limitations of Stravinsky's baton technique, no one else on disc conjures the same bustling excitement at the outset of Petrouchka. 0verlapping, polyrhythmic textures in Petrouchka and in Le Sacre du Printemps come off with Mozartian lucidity, Mendelssonian lightness, and, well, Stravinsky-esque rhythmic exactitude (notwithstanding a few hesitant entrances). The clarity partly stems from the composer's use of his leaner revised scores, helped by close-up, analytical mike work by CBS. There are, of course, slicker, more sonically opulent ... More details
	Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring; The Firebird Suite (1919) »rank: 18353 from: Sony 0ur opinion: : Considering that Stravinsky's Rite of Spring has been around for nearly a century, it's surprising that even today, conductors literally get lost while attempting to beat through it--and that goes for some of the biggest names. Difficult as the piece is, conductors have no excuse for major lapses, now that this recording is available for study. Bernstein not only keeps complete control of the complex rhythms and constantly-switching meters throughout the work but he also interprets it with ... More details		Hilary Hahn ~ Brahms · Stravinsky - Violin Concertos »rank: 10275 by: Johannes Brahms, Igor Stravinsky, Neville Marriner, Hilary Hahn, Academy of St. Martin in the Fields 0ur opinion: :Hilary Hahn is not only one of the best, but one of the most interesting young violinists before the public. Even as a teenager, she seemed uninterested in displaying her formidable technical mastery, concentrating instead on the music with a seriousness far beyond her years. Now 21, she has become a thoughtful, knowledgeable musician and an arresting, involved performer. Both qualities are reflected in this recording, beginning with the choice of the two concertos, which are entirely dissimilar--except for ... More details
	Stravinsky: Rite Of Spring, Fireworks, Petrouchka / Ozawa, Tilson Thomas, Chicago Symphony »rank: 8337 by: Michael Tilson Thomas, Seiji Ozawa 0ur opinion: :The Boston Symphony was at the peak of its powers when it engaged the 34-year-old Seiji 0zawa for this 1969 recording of Petrushka, in which the orchestra's then 24-year-old assistant conductor, Michael Tilson Thomas, played the extensive solo piano part. 0zawa, in those years, was capable of striking sparks with any orchestra he faced, and there is a palpable sense of excitement to the Petrushka he uncorks here. The accounts of The Rite of Spring and Fireworks, recorded in ...

Like the Naxos range of recording itself, A-Z of Classical Music is a rich source of inspiration for anyone either just embarking on a lifetime of musical enjoyment or for whom classical music has long been a way of life. lncluded within is an extensive glossary of musical terms ...
