Amazon.com essential recording

Subtitled "Guitar Études," this entertaining collection consists entirely of "exercises" ranging from the simple to the most fantastically virtuosic. Like Chopin's "études," however, the term itself does not mean that the music is in any way sterile or academic, and even if it were, Segovia could make it sound like the greatest stuff in the world. His special brand of virtuosity never loses sight of the music's poetry or humanity. Although less well-known than much other Spanish guitar music, this is one of Segovia's very finest recordings. --David Hurwitz

Customer Reviews:

Manufacturer Mishap.......2001-03-21

Excellent recording by the absolute finest virtuoso. One problem: CD lists 37 tracks, however you cannot access them individually. The CD is broken down into 7 tracks and you may have to wait, rather than just go to, the track of your choice. Very annoying.

Sublimely Sumptuous Segovia.......2001-02-03

Andres Segovia had the capacity to turn the most elemental of teaching pieces into lyrical sonatas. He does that admirably with the compositions collected on this CD. It is not necessary to use a lot of words to describe the beauty of these recordings. One listen to the music is sufficient.

Eavesdropping on a master.......2000-06-07

If you play the classical guitar you should not be without this disc. It offers great performances of several miniature masterpieces from the repetoire. If you have progressed beyond the absolute beginner stage you will be able to play some of the pieces by Sor and Aguado.

Segovia is always sensitive, never pompous, extremely revealing and always at the service of the music.

The recording quality varies and sensitive hi-fi's will reproduce the engine noise of fishing boats on one of the tracks. But who cares? This disc is an endless pleasure and immensly instructive.

One of the great classical guitar recordings.

nevermind claptain, segovia is god.......1999-10-03

segovia proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that he will always be the standard by which other guitarists are judged.

An excellent collection of Prokofiev's major works.......2007-06-25

I was introduced to the music of Prokofiev through his symphonies, and was immediately drawn in by the beauty of his music. So I bought this box set without listening to any other of his works first.

I was not disappointed in any way. Here, collected together very nicely, are a large portion of Prokofiev's works. Many of the performances here are reissues of past recordings, mostly from the '80s and early '90s. There are many imminent performers here, such as Mstislav Rostropovich (Prokofiev was a good friend and teacher of Rostropovich, and dedicated his Cello concerto to him after hearing him play), Seiji Ozawa, Jean-Pierre Rampal, and many other excellent musicians and orchestras. Rest assured that these are some of the best performances available of the works included.

The recording quality is unquestionable. Most of the performances are digital, clean, and rich (no distorted, thin, distant, or weak recordings here!). The only disc which contains poor recordings is the Archive Recordings disc, which is understandable as the recordings are very old (including Prokofiev playing or singing some of his own works and some works by other composers).

As for range of compositions included, we have here a magnificent collection of Prokofiev's most important music (and some of his rarer pieces as well): his entire symphonies and concertos, a selection of his instrumental music (including violin, flute, cello, and piano sonatas), many of his stage works including Romeo & Juliet, Alexander Nevsky, the Prodigal Son, The Steel Step, The Love for Three Oranges, Lieutenant Kije, etc., and an entire recording of his War and Peace opera.

One inclusion that I find somewhat baffling is that of 4 different versions of Peter and the Wolf: English, German, Spanish, and French. I would have been content with just the English, but I suppose listeners from other countries can benefit from the other languages.

I really can think of no better way to start a collection of Prokofiev's music. Here you can get his major works, and for a decent price (used copies can be a very good deal). If you are interested in the music of Prokofiev, or in 20th century classical music, this set is a great way to get a thorough introduction to Prokofiev. Highly recommended!

A great gift for classical collectors.......2004-05-13

I think it's needless to say how famous are S. Prokofiev and his works. I just want to give some details about this collectible gem.

This boxset has 5 parts:

-Sonatas box: Instrumental and chamber music. 5 CDs including sonatas for violin(s), sonatas for piano, piano and cello, piano and flute. Music for childen, and a quintet (G minor)
-Concertos box: 4 CDs. Including concertos for violin(no1 and 2), for piano, symphony-concerto for cello.
-Symphonies box: 4 CDs from sym No1 to sym no7. no4: Op.47 and Op.112
-Stage works and Films scores: 6 CDs. Romeo and Juliet, Peter and the wolf, Alexander Nevsky, Scythian Suite, The Prodigal Son, Cinderella, The love for three oranges...
-War and Peace opera: 4CDs
-Bonus: Role music. Including piano pieces.

There is no question about the quality:
-Sound: 5 stars
-Performers technique: 5 stars
-Boxes and color: 5 stars
-Price: $7/CD is acceptable.

Finally, I would like to use Sviatoslav Prokofiev's words: "This Anniversary boxset is a most impressive testimony to the interest my father's music arouse among artists, orchestras and audiences alike."

It's unbelievably beautiful........1999-05-01

It's unbelievably beautiful. It transports me to a different space, a different time, a special frame of mind and of soul. Where has this man been? why is this his only recording? Please, Planet Earth, give us more.

Customer Reviews:

Very nice.......2005-10-11

Perhaps the other reviewer should give these pieces another chance. Granted, they're not the equal of the 'Goyescas' or the 'Escenas romanticas' but de Larrocha thought enough of the 'Bocetos' to record them for RCA, and at least some of the waltzes deserve better than to be labeled as just "salon music." If de Larrocha's version of the 'Bocetos' is a bit more elegant, Riva's is just fine. A very nice release.

Modestly Pleasant Salon Music by Granados.......2004-08-04

I was very enthusiastic about American pianist and musicologist Douglas Riva's first issue in this series; he played the immensely treasurable 'Goyescas' suite and did a smashing job of it, right up there among the best versions available. Riva is a resident in Spain and co-editor of a new edition of all of Granados's music in process there. His fellow editor is Alicia de Larrocha. Somehow, though, I missed the intervening issues and this CD is No. 7 in the series. From the sound of it (although I'm guessing here) Riva is getting close to the end of his endeavor to record all of Granados's piano music, because much of what is played here has never been published or recorded. And, sorry to say, none of it is particularly memorable. There are some early student works, some 'piezas fáciles' for piano students, some not very intesting études. Even the 'Cartas de amor,' which are occasionally played outside Spain, are not especially engaging. The most interesting piece here is the last one on the CD. It is 'La góndola--scena poética' and it was not written for the normal piano. Rather it was composed for an instrument - none of which survive - called the 'Piano-pedalier Cateura' (Cateura was the inventor) which had pedals that altered the timbre of the struck piano strings. Even on a regular piano it comes across as a languid and poetic evocation of the rocking of a gondola, although not in the expected barcarolle rhythm.

Riva is a fine pianist, and a dedicated scholar of Granados' music, but this issue is only for the Granados completist, I fear.
