5 out of 5 stars none.......2005-02-12

The Janacek on this is the best available on compact disc.
The version of Hey Jude---a plodding, overrated song to begin with---is absolutely god-awful; akin to nails on a chalkboard to this beautiful album.

4 out of 5 stars humble opinion of a music student.......2004-07-02

It was brilliant to use the music of Leo Janacek as the score of this fantastic film. It gives a great feeling of the country and its people. The performances on this soundtrack could be better, but the occasional coarseness - that sometimes annoys me - suits the movie. The two songs shouldn't be next to all that great repertoire, but they are a part of the soundtrack...While I wouldn't compare Debussy and Satie with Janacek as they are completely different, I do agree that it's worth listening to!

5 out of 5 stars 5 stars for the janacek, anyway..........2001-02-17

i have to disagree with the last review in that if I could take the version of hey Jude off, plus Joj Joj Joj, I would in a second. they stick out sorely and are unlike the rest of the album, which introduced me to janacek, for which I'm forever grateful. the piano songs in particular rank up there for me with Debussy's solo piano work, and Erik Satie's. evocative, delicate, melodious, accessible; just gorgeous. the versions here seem good to me - I'm no expert, but they are better than the versions on the janacek CD this album led me to buy.

4 out of 5 stars Different..........2000-07-29

An excellent version of Hey Jude. Good music all around.

5 out of 5 stars Goober Patrol are almost as cool as Govern Mental.......2004-10-04

Nah just kidding, they are both cool. This is a great CD if you are into punk rock. Sure, they can't sing, but Goober Patrol have cool riffs and some great basslines which overcome their inabilty to sing well. They are also slightly political, which I didn't know before buying the CD, but it made the lyrics a lot better (even if i can't understand them)
(...) - i heard they are cool...

5 out of 5 stars the range of Reynolds' genius.......2002-09-18

This Neuma disc is superb, and with works in three different forms, would serve as an excellent introduction to Reynolds. The title piece, "Personae," is a violin concerto, definitely one of best contemporary works in the genre. Janos Negyesy plays violin with the SONOR Ensemble and computer-processed sound -- Negyesy and SONOR, like Reynolds, are based at UC San Diego. As Reynolds explains in the liner notes, the violinist takes on four roles in turn -- conjurer, dancer, meditator and advocate, the last of which subsumes the other three in summation. A stunning, cutting edge work. The second piece is "The Vanity of Words (Voicespace V)," one of Reynolds' works with computer-processed vocals, in this case the tenor Philip Larson of UCSD. This one features a text from Milan Kundera's "The Unbearable Lightness of Being." Unlike the concerto, this radical form is not recognizable as "classical music," but requires open ears and mind to appreciate. I am more impressed by this "pure" application than I am by "Odyssey," an avant-opera with computer-processed vocals (also on Neuma -- see my review of "The Paris Pieces"). Finally, "Variation" is a 22-minute piano piece, performed by Aleck Karis, also at UCSD. Reynolds mentions Webern as a point of reference, and I am reminded of Schoenberg's piano works, though the level of complexity is doubtless multiplied.

This is contemporary music of the highest order!
