Relaxing music at its finest!.......2005-10-14

Get it for $9.99 at Sam's Club!.......2005-06-22

Beautiful, moving music! You'll recognize many of the pieces.......2004-02-24

I would say I've _easily_ listened to Volume 5 at least 100 times, and I'm still not tired of it. That's amazing for me, because I'm also a musician (singer/pianist) and I get bored easily. I actually found the Volume 5 CD at a Thrift store, and loved it so much that I bought the whole set recently. So I've only listened to a few of the other CD's in this set, so far, and they're also great.

This is NOT boring music. My clients and family have heard it also, and they've also mentioned how soothing and wonderful these pieces are. Most of you will probably recognize a lot of these songs! You'll be saying, "OH! I remember THIS one! I haven't heard this for YEARS!!!"

It's well worth the money for 10 very full CD's!!! Try it! You won't be disappointed!

Happy listening!

An aging Ormandy has lost his zest.......2006-08-19

Fanstastic? Oh yes! indeed!!.......2002-12-24

This album, seemingly designed to appetite the followers of "The Glorious Sound of Philadelphia" like the delighted dessert over the dinner. Amusing and joyful. Instead of giving you a blast of your mind, Ormandy let the music played just by the way it should sound. Simply enjoying and easy listening. Like the sun shine over the meadow.

Personally, I enjoy every title in this CD. Highly recommend: Danse macabre, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, España, rhapsody for orchestra, Night on Bald Mountain & Ritual Fire Dance

Ormandy and Philadelphia Going Through the Motions.......2002-08-06

Despite my ardor for the Philadelphia Orchestra under Eugene Ormandy (please, God, gave us from Sawallisch!), during a period of time in the early 1970's, there were a number of his performances which I find fall below his usual high standards (especially the RCA Red Seal releases of Tchaikovsky's Fifth Symphony [I much prefer the Columbia Masterworks 1959 recording] and Swan Lake excerpts). These recordings have the beautiful tonal sheen typical of the "Philadelphia Sound," but Ormandy's tempo is painfully dragging; it sounds as though he's on valium in these recordings.

The Fantastic Philadelphians falls within the same company; These are showpieces, but I couldn't detect any of the fire that
Ormandy lent to other recordings from this era (particularly his 1968 recording of Tchaikovsky's Pathetique Symphony and his 1973 recording of Rachmaninoff's Second Symphony). The sound is gorgeous, but the pacing so slow that it sounds as though Ormandy doesn't care about these pieces, as though he's just trying to get through the recording sessions.

However, there is a glimpse of Ormandy's incendiary potential in the Russian Sailors' Dance and Hungarian Dance No. 5, but instead of a raging flame, all that's there is the pilot light. With all of the excellent unavailable Ormandy recordings out there, I do not understand why BMG chose to release this disc as their first Ormandy entry in the "High Performance" series. I would have much preferred to have seen them release his 1978 recording (the first digital recording made by RCA) of Bartok's Concerto for Orchestra or all of the Sibelius recordings languishing in BMG vaults (especially Symphony No. 7 [1975] and Tapiola [1976]) or his peerless recording of Dvorak's Eighth Symphony (1977). But, then again, BMG's neglect of Ormandy is documented and endemic. For example: BMG has released his recordings of Sibelius' First (1978) and Fifth (1975) Symphonies, both tremendously subtle and profound recordings, but not in North America. They are only out on their European "RCA Classical Navigator" series, and I had to order the CD from an online British store.

Back to this disc: If what you want is to hear great classical showpieces, beautifully recorded and played, to hear as
background music, then buy this disc -- it is not without merit. But if you want to *actively* listen to these pieces, skip this one; Ormandy and the Philadelphians are on auto-pilot on this one.

Ormandy At A Late-Era Peak.......2002-05-11

While the eleven works on the CD are often thought of as "pops stables" or "musical bon-bons", Ormandy and his orchestra nevertheless displayed a great deal of professionalism in giving these works a great deal of new energy. Of particular note are the three works--Mussorgsky's "Night On Bald Mountain"; Ponchielli's "Dance Of The Hours"; and Dukas' "The Sorcerer's Apprentice"--which the orchestra performed under Leopold Stokowski in 1940 for Disney's classic movie FANTASIA. Ormandy breathes new life into these orchestral warhorses. The performance of Saint-Saens' ghoulish "Danse Macabre" is appropriately spooky. And the much-covered "Dance Of The Comedians" by Smetana, and Brahms' Hungarian Dance No. 5 are also pulled off brilliantly. This is Ormandy at his late-era peak, and is essential to understanding how he bought this orchestra to the position as one of the world's best, a standing it has held ever since FANTASIA.

Fun!.......2001-03-15

Many of these performances are superlative, and the engineering is excellent. While Ormandy could let his players get a little sloppy when he was recording for RCA, such is not the case here.

Danse Macabre is wonderfully well done, but the other Saint-Saens item, Bacchanale from Samson and Deliah, has one of the most overwhelming climaxes I've ever heard.

Espana seems to be the one item that isn't totally successful, IMHO, but not unsatisfying either. On the other hand, the Sorcerer's Apprentice is very well done, as is the Night on Bald Mountain (although here a little more roughness is called for).

The Philadelphia violas really let you luxuriate in the de Falla and the Gliere. And what a delight to have some other bon-bons, especially the Dances of the Comedians and Hours.

Worth every penny!

complete but lacking.......2005-06-14

good for completists, but..........2004-05-18

To start, most of the shorter, "lite" pieces are performed very well on disc 4. Even the most popular, (Gymnopedies, Gnossiennes) are excellent. I am also thankful I now have performances of "Uspud" and many of Satie's conservatory assignments, played expertly and with good humor. For these, the set is worth having.

But now, the bad news. As I have complained about in the past with Thibaudet's Ravel discs, I'm frankly rather put-off by his inexplicable, pointless staccato in many of the pieces. "Petite Overture a la Danser" is one of my favorite Satie miniatures, and here Thibaudet botches it by playing it way too fast with no pedal. It sounds like a joke, and I think he totally misses the point of the piece. In the "Nazareen" preludes, he adds his own extreme dynamics which are not indicated in the original scores, and the effect seems like a cheap attempt to add "spice" to what are supposed to be meditative sound constructions, based on poetry forms rather than classical forms.

"Prelude to the Heroic Gate of Heaven" is taken far too slow, and Thibaudet completely cuts out the "Curtain" coda in the original Salabert edition for no apparent reason; he seems determined to give the piece a more "proper" ending, and for this listener, it's a terrible, narcissistic, and disrespectful miscalculation.

I will keep this set since it is a complete document, flawed though it may be. But I still must insist that the best living interpreter of Satie's piano music is the ever-underrated Reinbert DeLeeuw, who is completely in-tune with Satie's sly magic. His tempos may be slow, his dynamics few, but that's the whole point; this is highly personal music, and DeLeeuw has an aesthetic I can personally agree with. For an audible explanation of what I'm talking about, compare the performances of "Petite Overture a la Danser" by DeLeeuw and Thibaudet, and you'll see what I mean.

Yes, its worth five discs.......2003-12-17
