Review of Classic FM Relax
Advantages: Great performances of popular favourites and some rare gems Disadvantages: Barely none, with perhaps slight issues with sound.
...As part of Deutsche Grammophon's Panorama series (cheap 2 CD collections of famous and not so famous music), the recordings are generally very good, mostly performed by top ensembles like the Berliner Philharmoniker, Boston Symphony, Detroit Symphony, and Orpheus Chamber Orchestras among others, under people like Leonard Bernstein, Herbert von Karajan, Daniel Barenboim and Seiji Ozawa. The recordings themselves range from the early 1960s to the late ... ...hiss or other distracting anomalies. With this much talent involved, you can be sure there is not much to be disappointed as far as the performances are concerned.
Beginning in high style by a wonderful performance of Hugo Alfvén's Swedish Rhapsody No.1, "Midsommarvaka", the recording of the Gothenburg Symphony under Neeme Järvi is one of the best I have heard (as are the other rhapsodies in the set from which this has been taken from), being rich, ...
Advantages: Every tune's a winner Disadvantages: Nothing new
...Grieg- Peer Gynt (In the Hall of the Mountain King)
If you don't know these pieces, then this would be an ideal CD for you if you feel you ought to know what the most commonly known classical pieces are. It could be treated as a mini-course on accepted masterpieces, and the booklet, (minimal, 2 CD-sized sides per CD), gives you a pert selection of related anecdotes to astound your friends with. (For example, Rutter's pick is "A Gaelic Blessing". ... ...as "garlic dressing". Radio 3 would not share this blasphemy with you I'm sure!
If you already know all these pieces (and are something of a music buff), don't instantly dismiss this CD. I'm a music graduate and knew almost all of them inside out, and I usually prefer to have "whole" works on CD. But this set does fill a gap- that "I can't decide what I really want to listen to but I want something jolly or that I haven't heard for ages because ...
Advantages: I found this so relaxing I did fall a sleep the first time I played it, so it works for me. Disadvantages: Have to say again as I fell asleep the first time I played it I had to play it again, but I guess thats not that much of a disadvantage really.
If like me you like to have a Sunday relaxing with soothing sounds that can transport you anywhere you would rather be, then try this one out. Ok I like to have thos e Sunday moments any day of the week & I found this music brings me those moments.
I loved the pure sounds as they gently build to fill my mind with peace, sounds strange but that is what this music does. There is enough emotion in some of the music to inspire the heart, but most are ... ...to end your day off after a mad boss or raging family, come to think of it... nice item to give your made boss to bring them down, or give the family members that need chilling!.
Nearly 6 hours of chill time, with composers such as: Ralph Vaughan Williams & Alexander Porfir'yevich Borodin; Conducted by: Neville Marriner & Stephen Cleobury; amoung other proformers as: Stephen Hough (Piano); Danielle Millet (Mezzo soprano); Mady Mesplé (Soprano); ...
Advantages: A definite easy listen Disadvantages: Maybe too easy
This CD was probably a strange choice for me as i've never bought a classical album before, but i was attracted by the front cover ( i know never judge a book by its cover, but it was a CD) which seemed to depict everything i was looking for. Something i could just lie back, listen to and drift away into my own little dream world.
Well it did exactly that. I drifted off to sleep after about track 6 and dint wake untill the CD had ended. This unfortunately ... ...but i soon listened to it again to get the full effect. It is definitely as described a very peaceful album. The music seems to lift you up and allow u to float above the world but i warn it does make u feel very drowsy.
Whether id advise u to buy it or not depends on if ur into classical music. Although saying that i wudnt exactly say im 'into' it, i jus fancied a change. Its a good CD if u want to relax or for background music if u have sophisticated ...
