A Tuba Concerto - not a common sight
Review of British Tuba Concertos by  SScott764

Advantages: Good tuba muisc
Disadvantages: None

.... This movement has an amazing cadenza (a show off section for the soloist) which then leads to a final flourish which rounds up the concerto wonderfully. This third movement is also quite good and is a perfect way to finish up the concerto. After the Gregson Concerto, comes the Tuba Concerto (1983) by Roger Steptoe. 4 - Con poco moto - poco piu mosso - Allegro 5 - Giocoso 6 - Molto calmo This concerto is my least favourite of the four, possibly because compositionally it is twelve-toned and doesn't really seem to have a nice melodic line to it. The first movement is slow and good enough to listen to, but its not really that wonderful, then the second movement is a bit faster but it still sounds as horrible as the first movement with the lack of a nice sounding tune, and then finally there is the thrid movement which is very calm...

Familiar concertos by Vivaldi
Review of Vivaldi: (The) Four Seasons; Violin Concertos by  armychick

Advantages: Classic Concertos for Everybody
Disadvantages: Strings only!!!no woodwind...boo!

...The Four Seasons by Vivaldi Made famous by countless car adverts and Nigel Kennedy at the Albert Hall amongst other places. This has got to the piece that all fiddle player long to play and solo in! My first exposure to this came when I was seven, we had a hat making competition at school, the Hat Parade, and dad suggested making a musical hat and came up with the Four Seasons which was a favourite of mine as a youngster. Mum and me made the hat, which turned out to be a master piece in the end (for a 7 year old anyway!) and I won first place! I was fixed with Vivaldi for a long time after! Even a novice in classical music would recognise some of the notation! Vivaldi composed in Vienna, and was born 1678 and died in 1741. In these times, most music was composed and performed by telling a story and acting and dance were very... Read review

Mutter’s Magnificent Brahms Violin Concerto
Review of Brahms: Violin Concerto; Schumann: Fantasie,Op 131 by  zerbine28

Advantages: Mutter's eloquence and sensitivity in older recording are enhanced here.
Disadvantages: None at all!

...As a fantastically talented eighteen-year-old, Anne-Sophie Mutter already awed me with her sensitive and thoughtful eloquence in her 1981 recording of the Brahms violin concerto (with Herbert von Karajan directing the Berlin Philharmonic). However, there’s an even deeper understanding in Mutter’s reading of the Brahms piece on this newer disc. This performance was taped live at the Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, New York City, in 1997. Kurt Masur conducts the New York Philharmonic in particularly inspired fashion. A difference of fifteen years separates the two recordings. In the time between, she married, had children, and then was widowed at a very young age. When Mutter returned to her instrument, she would bring a greater strength, emotional depth and insight to her playing, lending a maturity and assuredness to her... Read review
