Review of Pieces In A Modern Style - William Orbit by combat_claire

Advantages: great to listen to
Disadvantages: none

...Wow what a great cd that i have purchased by William Orbit, it is called Pieces in a Modern Style and also includes his top ten hit Barber's Adagio for Strings, this is classical music as has never been heard before, it is inspiring and easy to listen to. He has come up with an album which is diverse and is essential listening for everyone. Pieces in a modern style and Barber's Adagio for strings are not the only cds that he has been involved with recently, he also produced another masterpiece with madonna's American Pie....

Parade of the Athletes
Review of Parade Of The Athletes - Tiesto by cittauk

Advantages: Excellent tracks
Disadvantages: No Disadvantages

...I am a great fan of Tiesto. I think he truly is the best. Parade of the Athletes is perfectly done, the way it just flows from one track to the next is of excellence. My favourite track of them all is "Adagio for Strings" Playing it at the loudest I can, at home or in car opens a doorway to the listener so you can tune right into the beats and be transformed into a world of euphoria. It is fantastic how an old piece of any music of any genre can be transformed into a modern day trance mix and this is especially true of Adagio For Strings. Originally a very classical composition, yet when Tiesto mixed this music he brought it to life giving it a whole new identity without losing its originality. It is of no wonder that Tiesto has come so far in his field. He has a talent that is exceptional I would definitely recommend this... Read review

Slow, smooth Baroque
Review of Albinoni's Adagios by MAFARRIMOND

Advantages: Relaxing, serene, dreamy
Disadvantages: The first track is not actual Albinoni

...Albinoni's Adagios Albinoni is an Italian composer of the late Baroque era. The Baroque era, 1600 to 1750, is used musically to describe a period in music in which the techniques used and expression achieved share similar characteristics. An important characteristic of the Baroque era is the use of contrasts; loud and soft, fast and slow, solo and tutti (all instruments). Adagio an Italian word translated to English as slow. Albinoni used slow movements to provide a contrast to faster movements. He is credited with being the first Italian composer to use three movements for a concerto. A concerto being a genre of music, in which a small group of players is set against a much larger group thereby providing the contrasts of soft and loud, solo and tutti. The usual pattern of concerto is three movements - fast – slow – fast. This CD... Read review
