Album Description

Spirited new sounds from across the sea to the shores of the New Land. From the first colonists to the American Revolution and the birth of our republic Hesperus Early Music Ensemble's music reflects a time of new ideas, freedom and vitality. In town and village, parlor and ballroom, from the Appalachians to the great concert halls hear the musical pulse of early American music performed on a wide variety of folk and early music instruments. Includes: lively country-dance tunes, evocative Shape Note Hymns, old time Appalachian fiddle tunes, graceful European parlor music, French cotillions, divisions and improvisations. Introduction -The English Colonies in America were a patchwork-not just of territories whose boundaries became state lines, but of people from different places and classes with widely different values and experiences. This recording presents music from that patchwork; from England, the Colonial homeland; Scotland and Ireland, the homes of the largest groups of immigrants outside England; and France, the ally of the Patriots, and music written in the United States. More recordings by HESPERUS from Maggie's Music are Celtic Roots featuring Scottish fiddler, Bonnie Rideout and Early American Roots. Hesperus Ensemble is THE sought after musical group for period music that is both authentic, and most important fun, lively and spirited. They are frequent performers at the Smithsonian's Institute of American Music and can be heard on the soundtrack or the Paramount film with Johnny Depp entitled Sleepy Hollow! Excerpts from liner notes:2.A Set of English Country Dance Tunes: Maiden Lane, Jack O'Lent, Chestnut, Bonny Broom - The visionary London music publisher John Playford first published his English Dancing Master in 1651. It was reprinted 18 times over the next 77 years and is still popular today. 3. Parting Friends/Primrose - These tunes have come down to us in choral arrangements called shape-note hymns .

GREAT!.......2007-05-20

This cd travels everywhere with me and you can easily imagine a ball at Monticello given by Mr. Jefferson when you hear it.
Try not to daydream too much while driving as i had done several times..lol..it's hard not to with this cd..:)
Perfect for a colonial reenactment or party.

A relaxing journey into our Colonial past.......2006-03-16

I bought this CD to provide me with another dimension to my studies of period events. It truly contains a wealth of music, and takes it place as an important addition to my musical library. Living in the Mt Vernon area, I often travel with the CD playing while visiting historical places, and it provides a wonderful companion to "set the mood" for the myriad locations in the area. The quality of the sound is remarkable, the musicians superb, and the breadth of song selection provides a musical landscape for the period. Highly recommended!!

Fantastic!.......2004-03-04

I first heard the "Colonial America" CD by Hesperus when I visited Monticello recently (the home of Thomas Jefferson) where they were playing the songs in the gift shop. Imagine my dismay to find that only one cassette tape was left of the fabulous music of Hesperus; however, that tape held me spell-bound all the way home, from Virginia to North Carolina.

It was an incredible journey from the past that has stayed with me since, and every day I drive that one hour back and forth to work. This music has changed everything about the trips, and I can't wait for more.

Thanks to Amazon.com I was able to buy all three CD's, including "Early American Roots," "Colonial America" and the incredible "Celtic Roots" with the most beautiful violas imaginable.

Thank you Hesperus! Please play more!

Cold Mountain type music that's great.......2003-11-15

Novels and movies like Cold Mountain, Oh Brother Where Art Thou? and Song Catchers are showing the growing interest in traditional music and this recording hits the mark. It is music from the days of early America--the time when the first colonists come to America. You can hear the fiddle playing tunes still popular in the Appalachian mountains today and also hear shape note music arranged by Hesperus as wonderful instrumentals. The music takes you to a time when folks were making music in their homes-before TV, before the internet! This recording is good for teachers or educational purposes too- with informative liner notes. All the music is played on folk and early music instruments and it's lively and an enjoyable listen.

Customer Reviews:

Copland's conduction of GREAT CITY is better than Slatkin's.......2005-09-05

SKYLINE is a fun track that's based on the premise of Big City Overload. And naturally it's immediately followed by the low-key introspective NIGHT THOUGHTS.

Consider Lenny Bernstein's main theme from his MASS. I'm talking about the tune that was done klezmer-style and chorale-style. When the chorale sings it, it contains a descending 4-note phrase. Followed by a descending 5-note phrase. Okay--now listen for a certain passage in NIGHT THOUGHTS that sounds similar to Bernstein's passage. The only basic difference is that both of Copland's phrases are 5-note phrases. And let me add that Copland's NIGHT THOUGHTS was written years before Bernstein's MASS.

Another masterpiece..........2000-06-30

The third of the Copland Collection from Sony is much like the other two: Wonderful playing, orchestration, recording, and booklet. This is my favorite of the three of the CD sets though. Music is very 'Copland' like. The Red Pony is from the movie is an excellent suite. Dance Panels is the least known of the 4 ballets by Copland. But just like Appalachian Spring and Billy the Kid, it is very Copland, very exciting, and very good. Unlike the other three you may find on the 2nd CD set of this series, this is the entire ballet not just the suites. Down A Country Lane is now one of my favorite Copland works. So soothing, it can really paint the picture of a beautiful country road on a spring day. Music for a great city is actually from a movie (booklet tells all). Each of the four movements describes the big city just as we all have known it. All the other works are nothing to look down upon either. Most works are conducted by Copland with the London Symphony (he really knocked them into shape). A couple were conducted by Bernstein which are still up to standard. Great CD collection! Buy all three.

Going for Baroque.......2003-01-09

Here lies master collection from ten years and fifty discs of examples from baroque era performed by choirs, soloists and instrumentalists.

Conducted by energetic Robert King and his King's Consort, this is just superb!

It will introduce one to baroque or add to one's enjoyment. Especially enjoyed Purcell's "Hear my prayer, O Lord" and Gabrieli's "Salvator noster."

A great collection for the whole family - a great sound for the generation x. I love it!

Great price, but not a real 'box set'.......1999-05-04

This collection is not a 'box set' in the way most people think of the term. It is not a collection of best works, put together with nice packaging and a descriptive booklet. Rather, it is three CDs (titled "Walkin' After Midnight", "Today, Tomorrow and Forever", and "Don't Ever Leave Me Again" after the first song included on each). There is no booklet or descriptive information, just these three CDs tossed in a box. Many, if not most, of her biggest hits are missing. If you like the songs in this set, go for it. You can't beat the price. But if you are looking for a Patsy Cline collection, this isn't it.

great counrty collection.......2000-09-09

Overall a fairly diverse country collection.

My greatest dissapointments happen to also be the reasons I ordered this collection.

I was looking for Tanya Tucker's Delta Dawn track. I found it listed on this selection. The track itself is a live recording taped during a performance much later in her career. DISAPPOINTMENT #1. I was seeking the studio recording played on the airwaves in the 70's.

I specifically chose this compilation rather than others because it also contained "These Boots Were Made For Walking". The description only includes the titled of the songs, but I would venture to say that there are few individuals out there that would guess that a collection of this kind would include a recording by Lee Hazlewood. Of course I was expecting to hear Nancy Sinatra's version!! DISAPPOINTMENT #2.

Because the only surprise recordings on this entire 3 disc, 60 song collection happen to be the only reasons I even ordered this one, it would be safe to say I am unhappy with my purchase.

Average customer rating: Wonderful debut album - with a great name! Great CD one of the best in 1999! Great range of music with a wide range of classic musicians!

Customer Reviews:

Wonderful debut album - with a great name!.......2000-05-06

Accomplished as a world class Bassist - Freebo is expanding his horizons to Lead singer, songwriter and now producer. He has picked a great name for his album - as I feel this is ONLY his beginning.

Multi-talented musician, he performs with his famous bass, acoustical guitar, tuba and various other intruments in an eclectric collection of innovative and original music.

Bringing his experience from Rock, Country, R&B and Blues to this CD penned from his life experiences ('Trouble'and 'I feel Good') - he has fun with tunes like 'Yogi' - complete with a tuba rift- and the D-O-G tune.

'How do I say GOodbye' - with special guest Bonnie Raitt - as stayed in my head - as I h um my way down the highway.

Great CD one of the best in 1999!.......2000-01-08

I love this record! Wonderful music, sounds great, good song writing. Great guest artists, Freebo never sounded better! What a wonderful bass player and singer. Everyone should own this CD! One of my favorites

Great range of music with a wide range of classic musicians!.......1999-11-19

Freebo shows himself as a master talent and he takes with him on this CD the best from a famous group of jazz and blues musicians. This is good for some soulful music, some rocking music and some fun music. It makes for good feelings and good memories. I really recommend it.
