Mozart: Complete Symphonies
from: Philips
: :This was a very smart idea. The early symphonies are all performed by Neville Marriner, while the later (and better) ones are the classic performances by Joseph Krips and the incomparable Concertgebouw Orchestra of Amsterdam. Some of these appeared on budget CDs briefly, but never the entire set. So although a hybrid series, this is as fine a collection of Mozart symphonies as one is likely to get. Music lovers who know about these legendary Krips recordings will snap this up without delay, but it also makes a very safe recommendation for anyone ...

Philip on Film
from: Nonesuch
: :The best-known soundtracks of composer Philip Glass have stood the test of time extremely well. Today, we associate Koyaanisqatsi as much with Glass's vast soundscape as we do with director Godfrey Reggio's haunting images. Philip on Film gathers three complete Glass scores--Koyaanisqatsi, Powaqqatsi, and Dracula, along with selections from La Belle et la Bête, Anima Mundi, Kundun, Mishima, The Secret Agent, The Thin Blue Line, and a handful of short films. The Glass trademarks--those machinelike arpeggios; that familiar, if odd, electronic keyboard sound; the influence of non-Western vocal techniques--are all here. Glass has ...
