Having earned his composing stripes after the 1960s, John Adams had the pioneering work of Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Terry Riley close at hand as he ventured into his trade. And, while minimalism's historical continuum helps place Adams, he used Reich, Glass, and Riley (among others) only as a starting point. And here's proof: a 10-CD retrospective of nearly all Adams's recorded compositions on Nonesuch Records, the label that also issued Steve Reich 1965-1995 and Kronos Quartet: 25 Years. Adams's Harmonium, a choral work of startling energy and effervescence, appears here in a new recording, as do distillations of both The Death of Klinghoffer and Nixon in China, two path-clearing operas. Over the span of a career covered by Earbox, Adams has returned minimalism to traditional instrumental ensembles as well as to projects that at once advanced a political commentary and took that commentary back to orchestral audiences. And so, in far less time than his predecessors, Adams created works that now play like standard repertoire pieces: The Wound Dresser and Shaker Loops and the Violin Concerto--all of them are here. What these works demonstrate is a fierce creativity on the one hand and perhaps a hunger for commercial advances on the other. Adams may at times be a bustling free thinker, but he sounds ever conscious of what audiences are listening to. As for the works themselves, they remain every bit as daunting as when written.

Some may object to particular selections. I Was Looking at the Ceiling and Then I Saw the Sky, for example, hardly ranks with Adams's best work. But this box isn't a mere best-of; it's an almost-all-of. At times terrifically American--especially in the news-aware operas and their narrative pragmatism--Adams well deserves a major box set, and its coverage is appropriate to his varied, stylistically diverse output. As with any large-scale retrospective, Earbox--which fairly bristles with Adams's new composition, Slonimsky's Earbox--has spots where fans might balk at the quality of the composer's writing. But it's got a fantastic accompanying booklet along with its many hours of inarguably modern and thoroughly listener-friendly music. --Andrew Bartlett

5 out of 5 stars Moved to tears.......2004-03-18

Never before in my life was i moved so intensely and directly by classical music. I put the first cd in my player and a few minutes later tears are flowing. I find myself dancing and moving to a rythm i already seem to know. Wow, i just have to share that.

5 out of 5 stars Nonesuch delivers.Again.......2002-11-27

John adams is one of the most popular living composers of"modern" classical music[I believe the cutoff point, though arbitrary is usually WWII}.I came to him late, through my husband. Modersn classical music , I said? What the hell is that?My husband kept playing bits and pieces of adams for me, and more and more i found myself amazed. and swayed. His operas have been groundbreaking{Nixon in China} controversial{Death Of klinghoffer},his compostions sublimely beautiful{shaker Loops or harmonium].HIS STATURE IS WORTHY THEN OF SUCH A MONUMENTAL CAREER SPANNING BOX SET.This 10 disc set[great value, again from NONESUCH}encompasses Adams' entire career,and though there are some misses here{I was looking at the ceiling and then i saw the sky doesnt quite fit},it is still magnificent. the Highlights are ,{for me} the Wound Dresser, Chamber symphony,Violin Concerto, of course, Shaker Loops and Harmonuim are wonderful. The true jewels here are Nixon in China,the Chairman dances and the Death of Klinghoffer,which is simply a masterpiece. The set comes with a wonderful book, which contains essay's by Robert Hurwitz {An Uncommon Man}renaud Machart[John adams as seen from europe} and Essays before an earbox by Adams himself.A Chronology and dicography are included. A wonderful study of an American original,worth the investment, Highly highly recommended

4 out of 5 stars harmonia in excelsis.......2001-11-12

I must agree with Mr. Bartlett, particularly with regard to "Ceiling." It may well be because his Violin Concerto and Harmonielehre are so powerful. 4.5 stars.
Interesting, and likely intentional, is that two names in the extensive liner book fail to mention two great and glaringly obvious precursors: Carl Orff and Raymond Scott. Without "Carmina Burana," there would be no "Harmonium." Orff has his mark all over Adams's gifted and epic compositions. Similarly, though there are glib references to "cartoon music," the polymath engineer/musician Scott is a seminal figure in American music, and casts a large shadow over the witty juxtapositions and sense of play one loves in Adams's work. In all, an excellent career overview.

5 out of 5 stars Our greatest living composer.......2001-07-22

As a composer, I'm staggered that anyone could fail to be gripped by this music.

That anyone can use the words "spoiled, overrated" amazes me. I emphatically disagree with "A music fan"'s review.

I don't think it's "mind-numbing"; I think it's spiritual and exciting. To me it's the most substantial music being created in our times.

I'm really sorry that anyone could fail to enjoy it, and really recommend others to listen for themselves.

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful CD.......2000-04-02

This compilation should turn even the most curmudgeonly listerner into a fan. Beautifully recorded, great notes -- and it's a heck of a bargain!

5 out of 5 stars The best ever version.......2002-06-07

The wonderful cast transports you to the realms of Gilbert and Sullivan, to make you feel that you are experiencing a first night in 1881! John Reed, as Bunthorne, an aesthetic poet is superb, camp, subversive and a complete fraud. If anyone is not aware, the story of the opera is based upon the idiosyncracies of the Aesthetic movement in England of the 1880's and Gilbert used the public parodies of his friend Oscar Wilde as his major source. The rest of the cast, chorus and orchestra , under the long experienced 'Goddie' are superlative and make for one of the finest line-ups in D'Oyly Carte history. Revel and enjoy, for this is quite the best.

5 out of 5 stars The Golden Cast of D'Oyly Carte!.......1999-04-13

My wish had always been to see John Reed and the D'Oyly Carte Company in a performance of Patience. My mother had done so, remarking that, 'You'd need patience to watch it', she was coloured in her opinion, since she wanted to see 'The Mikado', but had gotten the wrong tickets! The recording, made in 1961, is superb in every detail. You are with the cast, on stage, in the auditorium, it is such a 'live' performance. The dialogue is delivered exquisitely, whilst the singing is uniformerly of the highest standard. I recently portrayed 'Bunthorne' and throughout my performances, I felt that I was continuing the legacy of Gilbert and Sullivan. All the past history of performers were there. I feel that Patience is a magical Savoy Opera. Do not miss the opportunity to own such a definitive performance. Maybe the subject of the 'Art Nouveau' periodof Victorian England is dated, but as one critic has already stated, every generation 'throws up' its poseures, to be knocked. 'Ah, me! lack aday!' BUY IT!

4 out of 5 stars The Definitive Recording.......1998-12-09

For those who prefer the traditional Savoyard renderings of the G&S canon, this is far and away the best recording of this parody of the cult of celebrity. John Reed leads the cast as a delightful Bunthorne, and the recording contains all of the opera's dialogue. "HMS Pinafore," "The Mikado," and "The Pirates of Penzance" may be better known, but "Patience" is deserving of a wider audience.

i only bought the CD cuz it was GC i buy anything that has to do with GC. i dont care if its a poster or a shirt or 1 frickin ring that has GC on it and it costs like 10 dollars i mean o well its still good charlotte. THEY ROCK~~~~~!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars Wow.......2004-07-16

I was just browsing around my local FYE and I came across this CD. Good Charlotte is one of my favorite bands, so I decided to listen to a sample of the CD. Wow, I was amazed. I thought this was going to be one of those things where a different band covers GC's songs, but no, this is an actual ORCHESTRA playing GC's songs, which is very very awesome. The violin is supposed to represent Benji and Joel's vocal harmonies, and whoever plays does a great job. The orchestra does all the music and its all still done with that energetic, explosive, uplifting feeling you get when you listen to GC's records. It really makes you appreciate both classical music and the infectious songs that the GC guys have created. If your a fan, this is a must buy.

1 out of 5 stars C'mon!!!!!!!.......2004-07-01

Man, this really sux!! c'mon, u can do better than this!!!! get da' reel gc, dude, not this "string quartet" crap!!!! i meen reely, y do they have 2 do this, huh?! just 2 humiluate every band under the sun? dude, y do i even gotta give this crap a single star??!! huh?! ask urself, does it even deserve 1 star? huh? i didnt think so.

5 out of 5 stars Surprisingly Good.......2004-05-19

I bought the CD without listening to any previous sound clips which is a big step to me, but I like both punk and classical (call me crazy). The CD is alot better than the regular tribute to GC which was just horrible. First off the quartet is at its best on the more fast paced songs like "Young and the Hopeless", "Hold On" and "The Click". When I saw the track listing I thought "Little Things" would be a horrible choice to play on stringes since anyone who's ever played the song on guitar or bass knows its incredibly simple, but like the rest of the album I was pleasently surprised. "The Anthem" is also quite catchy. The only songs I don't particularly care for are "Emotionless" and "Complicated". "Emotionless" seems like it'd be a good song for the string quartet but I was dissapointed. I just don't really like "Complicated" that much, I think they should have done "Bloody Valentine" instead. Even with those minor flaws the album still has 10 wonderful tracks, and just about all other string tributes have only 10 songs, out of which 1 is a self composition. The music is strikingly Good Charlotte, almost like the band themselves played strings. The cello and violas do a good job at capturing Benji and Billy's guitar playing. I don't think the bass playing does Paul justice, but it's not bad. The violin really captures Joel and Benji's singing, and the occasional drumming is good to. I'm surprised but...this album is awesome! Get it!

5 out of 5 stars Really Great.......2004-09-03

One thing that has yet to be mentioned is that these are all art songs written by women composers. I am a big fan of both of the performers. I really like the first three pieces and Still by Gwenyth Walker. If you are a begginer or an old timer when it comes to art songs, this is a must!
The title is accually Ah love but a day, not American Art Songs

5 out of 5 stars music fan in southern Virginia.......2003-08-15

I LOVE this CD and have played it constantly since purchasing it. My favorite selection is Guide My Feet with Louise Toppin's amazing high voice. The purity and sheer height of her instrument are incredible. I have also really enjoyed hearing the rich baritone of Jay Pierson and excellent accompanying of John O'Brien. The repertoire is refreshing and musically presented by all three artists. I HIGHLY recommend this CD to all.

5 out of 5 stars North Hollywood Fan- Jay Pierson is Wonderful.......2002-09-14

This CD is lovely. Jay Pierson has a wonderful voice and the interpretation of his selections is stellar. I really love "Into the Night" and can listen to it over and over. I also think it is great that the female composers get their long overdue DO! I hope they somehow know that their music is not only being heard, but being performed beautifully. Toppin does a great job also, but I really love the baritone sound. Truly a beautiful CD!!! Thank you to both performers - but especially Pierson!

5 out of 5 stars great CD, but ms toppin was NOT on TOP.......2002-04-08

the fabulous baritone CLEARLY shared the spotlight with toppin. the repetoire throughout was quite distinguished and beautiful between both singers, but i could have done without toppin being listed as the FEATURED singer on this CD. this CD has one of the most elegant, musical, baritones that ive ever heard on it. the best song sung by toppin was "take me to the water" - it was quite emotional, per toppin's pure tone and child-like vocal character - perfect match. "into the night" is glorious, and "ah love but a day" is gorgeous. a beautiful beautiful CD .

4 out of 5 stars Terrific!.......2000-06-06

Louise Toppin sings some beautiful, though neglected repertoire. She is ably assisted by Jay Pierson and John O'Brien, but this is clearly her project. Definitely recommended!

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent songs.......2004-04-02

    Hold On and The Young & The Hopeless are the most meaningful songs on The Young & The Hopeless CD. Their not exactly fun, party-like songs like The Anthem or Girls & Boys, they showcase maturity lyrically and musically. Great artwork too.

          5 out of 5 stars I'm old and I like it!.......2004-08-28

          Ok, here is the deal about this band. There are a few things that I have taken a few second looks at but on a whole, the band is really good. My teenage daughter swears by them. I have watched her open up and talk more about her feelings because these guys talk about real life. The one exception is "My Bloody Valentine." That is a little much, but we talk about the music and it has been something that has help her so much that there is no one that could tell me that they are not a great band. They have fun at what they are doing, talk about real life, and they reach out to those who are not spoken for!
          The CD, Young & the Hopeless, I purchased originally for me. "Hold On" is one of the best messages that I have heard in years! I only wish that the bands when I was a teen were more like these guys!

          4 out of 5 stars If only for the video.......2004-06-27

          I'll admit that I'm not a big GC fan and I don't perticularly like the single 'Young & Hopless' but I do love the video for 'Hold On'. It is a beautifuly insperational video and it alone is worth the money, although I would check out the used & new copes for better deals first.

          1 out of 5 stars 12 dollars for this!?!?.......2004-06-11

          have you noticed that everyone that had ever given Good Charlotte a good review can't spell and dEy tYpE LyKe DiS?? Are you really going to listen to advice from stupid 13 year old kids? Please do yourself a favor and stay far, far away from anything relating to GC. If you like punk, i recommend you go buy a Green Day, Rancid or Blink 182 cd. All of them cost about the same and has more than three songs on it.

          5 out of 5 stars Lifesaver.......2004-05-09

          Hey ppl, listen to hold on especially because it saved my life a zillion times. They are lifesavers!

          5 out of 5 stars Kick ass.......2004-04-09

          This is another kick-ass single by GC. It has their nbest song Young & Hopeless and the Video of Hold On, another amazing song from their new record.
