5 out of 5 stars Lovely company when you're alone & great with guests!.......2003-02-05

I have had the most interesting experiences with Sahan Arzruni's "Childhood Memories!" One evening I put it on while cooking in the kitchen. As it played, I heard a refrain from the living room that was so enchanting, I had to abandon my cooking and just be with the music. Then I'd go back to cooking and another piece would call to me! All the pieces seemed to tell their own special story: a cat and mouse theme with a wonderful chase; a more ponderous piece with accents of splashing light; a "bluesy" feel with a saucy tale; and sometimes the pieces felt improvised, so in the moment was Arzruni.
Another evening I had it on with guests gathered, and Arzruni's music became the perfect background for the conversation, adding some remarkable accents and details, delighting all! Lovely company when you're alone, and great with guests!!
"Childhood Memories" is a good title as it has a way of innocently creeping in and taking hold. Calling to times past, and eager, energized, open. He subtitles it "Music for Younger Pianists," of which I'm neither, so I encourage all others not to hesitate!

5 out of 5 stars A JOYOUS EXPERIENCE.......2003-01-08

I AM TOTALLY ENCHANTED BY THIS RECENT CD "CHILDHOOD MEMORIES" OF SAHAN ARZRUNI. EACH SHORT PIECE AND THOUGHT CREATES AN EXTRAORDINARY WHOLE. I AM BEGUILED BY THE RENDITIONS OF AMY BEACH, A DELIGHTFUL BEGINNING WITH HER VIVID "CARNIVAL". THEN CAUGHT BY THE MYSTERY OF ROBERT STARER'S "PURPLE" FROM THE SET I PARTICULARLY ADMIRE. THE FUN OF "BRIGHT ORANGE", THE GENTLENESS OF "GREY", THE PRETTINESS OF "PINK",THE EXCITEMENT OF "CRIMSON", THE SURPRISE OF "MAROON",THE EDGE IN "ALUMINUM",THE GLINTS OF SHINE IN "SILVER AND GOLD", THE ZIP OF "KHAKI", THE DASHING VIVIDNESS OF"CHROME YELLOW". THEN COMES THE INTELLECTUAL FRENCHNESS OF NED ROREM.(ESPECIALLY LIKED "A NEW GAME" AND "A TRICK") I FIND DIANNE RAHBEE A SHEER DELIGHT, AND ALSO WILLIAM MAYER ... ESPECIALLY THE DELICIOUSNESS OF "BIRDCAGE" AND ALL HIS MANUSCRIPTS LEADING TO "SUBWAY INTO THE SUNSHINE". MIRIAM GIDEON, SO BRIGHT AND CLEVER, YET SO MUSICALLY EXPRESSIVE IN THE HANDS OF SAHAN ARZRUNI. "HESITATING SECONDS", "SLIDING THROUGH THIRDS" WITH ARZRUNI'S DELICATENESS OF TOUCH ARE MAGICAL. LOUISE TALMA'S UNIQUELY BEAUTIFUL "DUCK DUET", THE HIGH SPIRITS OF "FOLLOW THE LEADER" AND "SKIPPING"-- ALMOST BACH-LIKE IN DESIGN, "THE ROBIN" (WITH MORE ENERGY THAN MY VERY FAT LOCAL ROBIN) AND ALL THE ENTICING SNATCHES OF THOUGHT SHE HAS CREATED THROUGH SAHAN ARZRUNI. "PITTER PATTER", "A HEAVY LOAD","WHIRLING PINWHEELS"-(SO DELECTABLY LIQUID),"THE CLOCK" COME QUICKLY TO MIND. THEY ARE ALL SPECIAL IN THEIR OWN INDIVIDUALITY. "CIRCLES", "TWO BY TWO","SOUNDSHOTS" ARE A PERFECT MATING OF COMPOSER AND PERFORMER. THERE ARE NO TECHNICAL LIMITS. IT IS A JOYOUS EXPERIENCE TO HEAR SO MUCH DELIGHTFUL, PLEASURE-GIVING "NEW" MUSIC, PLAYED EXQUISITELY AND MOVINGLY BY SUCH A PROFICIENT ARTIST AS SAHAN ARZRUNI. HE HAS INDEED, CAPTIVATINGLY, "DISTILLED" THE ESSENCE OF CHILDHOOD.

Perhaps I should start by admitting a bias: Many years ago, lying on Boston's grassy Esplanade by the Charles River on warm summer nights, I learned what a symphony orchestra should sound like, with Arthur Fiedler conducting the Boston Pops Orchestra. Those concerts were free; these seven compact discs are not--not quite. But for any lover of light classical music, they are certainly one of the best buys available. The orchestra (essentially the Boston Symphony) is one of the world's greatest; the music, from Smoke Gets in Your Eyes to the Goyescas Intermezzo and Ride of the Valkyries is instantly enjoyable and permanently valuable; the conductor is at the same time genial and exacting, convinced that any music you play, no matter how frivolous, deserves the best you can give it. --Joe McLellan

    1 out of 5 stars maurice jarre: the emotion and the strength.......2005-01-29

    I am sure that anyone reading this review will agree with me on the fact that m. Jarre's status as a composer is beyond legend. What a pure genius. HOWEVER, I simply have to write this review to warn his fans what a huge disappointment this album is. Frist,the quality of the recording is tinny and insipid [I am not some picky audiophile, but live albums usually leave a lot to be desired]. Most important is that the arrangements and their performance by this orchestra is just totally unsatisfying. Lets face it, what we all love about Jarre is the power of his music in relationship to the films for which it was done. We want the evocative quality of the real scores, pretty much as they were for the films. You wont find it in this album[close your eyes and think of your favorite film score. You can hear it in your mind easily. now imagine hearing an album where the arrangement of it that you hear bears little relationship to what you lovingly remember. Thats the reason for my profound dissatisfaction]... So just buy the 'real' soundtracks and enjoy!

    5 out of 5 stars "Ageless Composer..Legendary Icon Extraordinaire..Jarre".......2002-01-21

    Highly skilled composer one of the "Old Guard" film scoring Giants...belongs to a very exclusive club of longivity...creating some of the most brilliant scores ever to grace filmland...Mauice Jarre can write music for any story-line...from any country in the world...one who fits the bill of legendary icon in his most worthy profession...FILM COMPOSER EXTRAORDINAIRE!

    Not being one so taken with LIVE RECORDINGS, but this 2-CD-Set has much merit, quality and enjoyment, all music composed and yes, conducted by MAURICE JARRE, with very capable musical organizations~ BBC Concert Orchestra,Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, how's that for a Grand Slam line up...but let's see what musical scores make the grade of "stand outs" and the ever popular "highlights".

    Starting with the stand outs ~ "A PASSAGE TO INDIA"(1984), string section opens with counterpoints from percussion, giving you a sense of traveling through India, brass takes over with a main theme, gives the ten minute Suite body---"FATAL ATTRACTION" (1987), solo piano sends chills through your memories of the story line, almost textures of "Classical Jazz", blending eerie strings with muted brass joining in for substance,reminds me of some of 1940's murder mysteries with Bogart or Mitchum---"RYAN'S DAUGHTER"(1970), haunting theme with melodic overtones, give way to the percussion section, moving within the unforgettable melody always stumping the music fans, where have I heard this before?

    What you've all been waiting for...the HIGHLIGHTS ~ "LAWRENCE OF ARABIA"(1962), exceptional score for this stunning film, won an Oscar for "Best Original Score 1962", percussion and brass draws you into the desert, living each passage from an unforgettable arrangement that sits high on the composers list on his achievements---but the one everyone remembers for orchestration, originality and lasting impression of "Classic Soundtracks" is "DR, ZHIVAGO"(1965), sweeping Russian melodies with poignant blends of the windwood sections, listen as the counterpoints abound reeking with passion as the love of two women for one man, the Main Theme is probably one of the most recognizable in the world.

    Milan Records has given us an additonal score "SUNSHINE"(1999), a beautiful haunting score that has Jarre's signature in place, the chorus gives off a heavenly sound of "Pure Harmony", counter balanced by the orchestration, gotta love it!

      5 out of 5 stars A Great Recording of a Great Organ.......2007-05-27

      The organ on this recording is generally believed to be the largest "residence organ" in the world, with over ten thousand pipes. It was purchased by Pierre du Pont (1870-1954) in 1929 for his grand estate in southeastern Pennsylvania. That estate, known as Longwood Gardens, is now open to the public, and the organ remains in situ in the music room attached to Longwood's dramatic conservatories. (The organ is currently undergoing a thorough restoration, which is scheduled to be completed in 2008.)

      Performing on this disc is Thomas Murray, probably the greatest living concert organist. His light touch, and the pieces he has chosen, do a terrific job of displaying this organ's capabilities. The program includes two movements from "Longwood Sketches," a piece written for this organ by Firmin Swinnen (1885-1972). Swinnen, a native of Belgium, gained renown as a concert and movie organist before being hired in the mid-1920s by Pierre du Pont to perform regularly at Longwood. The "Sketches" are whimsical, romantic pieces that show off the organist's virtuosity and the instrument's many colors.

      This is an excellent recording, highly recommended for fans of the concert organ and its repertoire.

          4 out of 5 stars Of Some Interest.......2005-08-21

          Patty Carlson has, over a relatively short period established herself as an active professional musician, both as composer and performer. But for all that, there are very few opportunities to hear her recordings. In fact, she is best know as a music educator having evolved a technique she calls 'piano logic.'

          While I can't speak for her ability to teach piano, this album is an able demonstration of her ability to compose and perform. She has a solid style with strong melodic and textural skills. While not as inventive as someone like George Winston or Michael Jones, her work is always pleasant listening.

          My biggest criticism of the Suite is that it a bit repetitious. For something that occupies an entire CD and some 11 tracks, there are two many moments when you get the feeling you've already heard something before. Still, the music isn't boring, and the overall effect is quite pleasant.

          Of the two accompanying musicians, Nancy Ives on cello does the most interesting work. But both are limited in that the only part that is consistently articulated is Carlson's piano. Both Ives, and Bryan Savage on flute spend too much time playing legato. 'Images' is the first cut where the flute actually shows some liveliness.

          I wouldn't run out and track this album down, but if you have a taste for meditative, easygoing music you'll find this a pleasant addition to a collection.
