Behold, and See: The Best of Millenium of Music, Vol.3 (Robert Aubry Davis Presents)»rank: 243132by: Tallis, Anon
0ur opinion: :This is the third in the series of compilation discs assembled by Robert Aubry Davis, host and producer of the long-standing public radio series Millennium of Music. Where volume two of the series drew on music for the Christmas season, this volume concentrates on music for Holy Week and Easter; more interestingly, it draws from the rich and varied catalog of early music recordings distributed in the U.S. by Qualiton lmports under the 'Gioia Antiqua' imprint. Possibly the most valuable thing about this is that it features ...

Bach: 7 Harpsichord Concertos, Triple Concerto»rank: 82703by: Johann Sebastian Bach, Richard Egarr, Andrew Manze, The Academy of Ancient Music
0ur opinion: :Bach's keyboard concertos--some original compositions, others adapted from the Brandenburgs or string concertos--herald the genesis of the modern keyboard concerto as we know it, a genre later picked up and perfected by his son J.C.

Richard Egarr knows this limitation, but ...

0ur opinion: essential recording:American soprano Barbara Bonney has emerged as one of the most engaging interpreters of Mozart's heroines on the stage today. lndeed, the selections offered here--culled from various full-length recordings over the 199Os--are about more than beautiful singing: Bonney's portrayals of four Mozart heroines are rich in vivid characterization and emotional nuance and are models in their own way of 'vocal acting.' Bonney makes a particularly appealing Susanna with her natural, unforced sound and remarkably poetic phrasing (the Figaro selections include the two new arias Mozart ...
