Music to your ears..........2007-04-05
I can't say enough about this musician. The music will sooth your soul. A must have for your car CD player, it will help you through the traffic :}
Very relaxing to listen to .......2007-03-07
I'm a new fan to Andre Rieu. I didn't start getting into his music until I caught his Christmas special on my local PBS station last year. I found his performances highly energetic and playful which is rare in this often serious musical genre. After catching a repeat performance of "Tuscany", I decided to make the cd version my next Andre Rieu purchase. Whenever I listen to "Tuscany", I can easily see Andre Rieu performing with his orchestra. His skills as a violinist is exquisite. He is very subtle and is never out of tune. "Tuscany" begins with three of the most beautiful classical numbers I have ever heard. The beautiful orchestral melodies puts me at ease. I wished that the cd included "The Rose" (the Bette Midler tune) that can be seen on the dvd. I loved the operatic version. It would have been a nice addition to the cd. Of all the operatic numbers my favorite has to be "Ode to Joy". I have to admit though the singers have a terrible tendency to caterwaul on the songs which can be quite disconcerting for these ears. On the other hand the same can be said about a lot of opera singers as well as modern pop singers. There wasn't a single song on the cd that I didn't enjoy listening to. Andre Rieu's love for music really does shine through his music here. I hope some day I will have the opportunity to see him perform live. I don't think nothing can compare to seeing this talented artist live. Until then his cds will do nicely.
Outstanding program.......2007-02-10
What wouldn't I give to have been enjoying this magnificent program in that beautiful square in Italy? Fantastic performance of unbelievabe quality and program choices. I wouldn't trade this DVD for anything.
Andre Rieu's Tuscany.......2007-01-10
Haunting melodies taking you to the hills of Tuscany where this concert was originally held. Plays well while travelling as well as at home.
"Tuscany" is one of Andre Rieu's best shows! Excellent CD!.......2007-01-10
I'm an Andre Rieu fan and can definitely review this CD as one of his best! It was well-recorded with good sound quality, and you can hear the excitement of that evening in Tuscany as you listen to this CD. I would also recommend the DVD/Video of that performance.

A must have CD.......2007-01-14
For anyone who likes Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops, this CD is a must have.
Arthur at his best........2002-03-20
Arthur Fiedler made listening to classical music fun. Try a listen to 'Pomp and Circumstance', one of my favourite pieces of classical music. 'William Tell Overture' shines as does most of the material on this album. Well recorded for it's day. Fiedler is missed.
Fiedler's Finest.......2002-02-16
I had the opportunity of playing in an orchestra under Maestro Fiedler. He was a tough, no nonsense conductor who expected crisp, lyrical, and expressive. His musical interpretations of everything from Sabre Dance to Syncopated Clock; from Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 to his love for the Beatles, sets him as the ruler supreme in pop music. I only hope RCA will continue to reissue his LPs so a new generation knows the man and his music. Bravo!
what a collaboration of musical excellence, oh what style!.......1999-06-08
I bought this CD a little over a year ago and it is still among my favorites. "Polvetsian Dances" is excellent no matter what your interests. The full version of "Pomp and Circumstance" as well as "The William Tell Overature" are wonderful; The "Procession of the Nobles" is victorious and galliant; the lyrical complexity of "Farandole" is haunting. This is a brilliant compilation of musical excellence.

Great Teaching Tool.......2007-05-29
The pieces on this disc represent some of the more intersting and dynamc overtures, very suitable for music appreciation classes to point out use of classics and neo-classical music in contemporary culture
Donna Diana.......2005-07-28
This CD has a nice mix of the familiar and unfamiliar --- but all are upbeat and fun to listen to. Well worth the price.
William Tell & Other Favorite Overtures.......2002-09-10
Suppe's Light Calvary and Poet and Peasant Overtures were absolutely grand, as were Daniel-Francois Auber's Fra Diavolo, Herold's Zampa, Reznicek's Donna Diana, Offenbachs Orpheus in the Underworld, and the magnificent William Tell Overture by Rossini. One word of caution: this CD will really test your stereo, the bass actually thunders, and will blow your socks off. Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Orchestra did a fine job, I would recommend this CD to anyone who loves the thunderous music of an orchestra, you cannot go wrong buying this CD, I love it on the car stereo and at home.
Blockbuster demo disk!.......2000-09-22
The Telarc label does it again. This is the perfect disk for showing off your sound system. Great recordings and great selection of overtures. I've been listening to this CD for about 15 years now and the Orpheus in the Underworld track still sends chills up my spine.
Fantastic!.......2000-05-26
Couldn't ask for anything more from a CD full of famous overtures. Kunzel and co. rock my world yet again.

Five stars for five winning performances........2003-09-19
I owned the LP of this back in the early 1960s (the cover showed a bright red apple with a target painted on it) and played these pieces over and over. The music is wonderful, the performances among Bernstein's best, and the sonics spectacular. I wish I still had my vinyl copy, however, because I would love to compare it to this CD-for sonics, I suspect the LP would win.
Not that the CD is bad, but Columbia LPs in those days were produced with a very recognizable equalization that is not apparent here. And as I remember, there was somewhat more detail on the LP, especially in the strings and in the many bells that decorate these quickly recognizable, entertaining pieces. (Each of the five compositions held a firm place as background music for Warner Brothers cartoons.)
However, the CD is entirely listenable (and certainly contains no pops or scratches). I will be interested to hear the SACD version if Columbia ever produces one. From what I have heard, Columbia's few SACD reissues sound more like the LPs. In any case, the product labeling is poor. The front cover says, "Digitally mastered analog recording," while the back cover informs us that the disc is AAD. (The disc itself says AAD, but it wouldn't be the first mislabeled CD.) No date of production whatsoever appears, though we learn that the cover was designed in 1981. (Give me the apple with the target on it.) The interesting liner notes are what appeared on the back of the LP, no more, no less.
It's not an expensive disc, and some of the pieces, oddly, are not easy to find. Get it!
Great Performances Indeed!.......2001-08-04
This disc which is aptly named "Favorite Overtures" captures Leonard Bernstein and the New York Philharmonic at the peak of their creative powers during the 1960's. Each of the five overtures are gems, but of particular delight are the Mignon and Raymond Overtures by Ambroise Thomas. The Raymond Overture with it's galloping opening motive is a hidden treasure which has not been recorded very often. Thankfully, Bernstein gives us a rendition of Raymond that could only be described as definitive. The other overtures on this disc are Zampa, Poet and Peasant, and William Tell. Not only are they expertly played, but their sound is in the demonstration class which is amazing considering that they were made nearly forty years ago. The fact that this disc has remained in circulation for so long speaks for itself. My highest recommendation.

Customer Reviews:
What are they thinking?.......2006-09-30
As a music teacher, I'm wondering about the very critical reviews about this CD. What ARE they thinking? You are supposed to MARCH to these songs - not run to them! I hear great intonation and suitable tempos to this music. The phrasing is crisp and the rhythms precise. As to taking liberties with 1812, even the master composers did similar practices. The music "flows." This is a patriotic album that you will enjoy!
Must Have for Every Patriotic American.......2002-04-12
This CD is a great collection of classic American tunes. Listening to it really makes you proud to be an American and it puts you in a patriotic mood.
I strongly disagree with some of the other reviews here and I found the quality to be great, along with the selection of songs. BUY THIS CD. YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!
Marching music to yawn by?.......2002-04-04
I completely agree with the two pans by the reviewers above -- the arrangements are completely inappropriate for the music. These pieces should be sprightly and upbeat -- instead they are schmaltzy and lethargic.
Don't Buy this Album!!!.......2001-11-03
What could have been a great album of patriotic
songs is completely ruined because of brutal
editing and may I even say deception. I almost
never return a CD, but I returned this one. And
sadly because I found the sound quality very good.
Both on the outside track listings and on the inside
pullout, there is no mention that the tracks are
excerpts. Most leave out entire strains or repeats.
But the worst offense has to be the "1812 Overture".
I was excited to be purchasing an album with this
on it. But what I got was not even excerpts from
this piece. "excerpts from" usually implies that
a specific movement is presented. But this piece
is totally mutilated. Three measures are played,
five measures are omitted, two more measures are
played, etc. If Tchaikovsky were around he'd have
good cause for a lawsuit. Pleeeaasse, don't support
a product that does injustice to the composers and
does not truthfully describe the product's contents!!!
Wake me up when it's over... (YAAWWWNNNNN).......2001-06-20
Though the first thing that I noticed while listening to this CD was the poor tonal quality of the recording, what I was most disappointed with was the overall lack of tempo in nearly every piece. To quote my husband, "It's supposed to be a marching band, not a strolling band!" Also a few of the pieces are really excerpts and not the entire piece, not good excerpts at that.

This most serious and studious of German sopranos has a grand time--with no hint of condescension--in this collection of Viennese operetta arias, treating them with a meticulous musicality they rarely receive. In fact, lots of this music written by now-obscure names such as Heuberger, Zeller and Millocker isn't heard at all. But these isolated arias are marvelously lyrical and ingratiating with some deliciously comic counterpoint. One highpoint is the Nuns Chorus from Casanova, in which Elisabeth Schwarzkopf's voice soars above her fellow nuns, longing for her lover to rescue her from the cloister. It's some of the most unbuttoned singing of her career. --David Patrick Stearns

glittering Schwarzkopf.......2007-03-06
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf, the most talented and accomplished soprano of her generation, delivers a rich feast of operetta treats on this wonderful album. This recording features arias from seldom-heard or recorded composers (namely Heuberger, Zeller and Millocker), as well as pieces from Lehar and Strauss II. Schwarzkopf was in the prime of her vocal condition here, and easily commands the material.
Schwarzkopf made her name in the Lieder and dramatic operas, but it's marvelous to hear how she sparkles and glitters on this album. Highlights include "Einer wird kommen" (from "Der Zarewitsch"); and "Heut' noch werd' ich Ehefrau" (from "Der Graf von Luxemburg"). There's also a lovely rendering of "Meine Lippen..." (from Lehar's oft-forgotten "Giuditta" score).
This album has been newly-remastered using Abbey Road's Prism SNS Noise-Shaping System, which blends the vocals of Schwarzkopf and the orchestra to create a crisp, clear soundscape, free from analogue distortion and other inherent recording problems. This album was originally recorded at the Kingsway Hall in 1957, but sounds as fresh as a daisy here.
As my fellow reviewer - Rudy Avila - has keenly noted, this album has a perfect companion in Schwarzkopf's disc Strauss: Four Last Songs/12 Orchestral Songs.

The Charm Of Schwarzkopf: Vienna Opera.......2004-04-20
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf was the leading German lyric soprano of her time directly after World War II- the 50's and 60's. Her Marschallin from Strauss' Der Rosenkavalier is unbeaten and the definative best interpretation. This recording features her singing comfortably in the language she knew best, German, in arias from Vienna light operas. There is so much class and elegance, combined with charming warmth and beauty to the singing voice of Schwarzkopff. Another treasure to hear and a great complimentary addition to this album is Schwarzkopf singing German Lieder. Her diction was perfect, her melodic lines bubbly with sincere human warmth. In this album, I think you'll like the opening aria "Im Chambre Separee" from Der Opernball. There is a uniquely French sound to the aria and to Schwarzkopf's rendition, that has sophistication and European aestheticism written all over it. The other arias are beautiful to listen to as well, including the arias from Der Zarewitsch, Grafin Dubarry, Graf Von Luxemburg, Boccacio and Giuditta.
Naturally, since this is taken from the original Long Playing album record, it sounds very old fashioned and dated. I did'nt hear any scratches or disruptions, so for the most part it's highly enjoyable and lovingly remastered for a cd. Schwarzkopf classic voice does seem to fit more suitably on the LP of a phonograph in a stylish salon in Paris or Vienna. I can imagine when she was singing in person and recording these albums, people were goo-ga ga over her. But even if you don't own a record player and you are up to date with the latest sound system technology, this will bring you back to the days when people crowded around parlors,either to their radios or phonographs and had conversations and drank champagne in genuine taste and good cheer. This will definately want to make you drink some fine champagne.
Viennese Pastry.......2003-07-15
For those with a musical sweet tooth, this is the sweetest, richest collection of bon-bons imaginable. Schwarzkopf's singing is without parallel, and this is in my opinion the finest operetta recital disc available.
beautiful.......2003-02-22
This is one of my favorites. Schwartzkopf voice is a stunning and it clear that she has perfected her art. I was so pleased when I bought it and played it for my friends. My favorites are the nun's chorus and Laura's song and Sie nicht bos. You will enjoy this delightful recording.
Perfect!.......2001-07-22
Elisabeth Scwarzkopf is famous of her performance of Mozart's Countessa or Fiordiligi, Richard Strauss' Marschallin, etc. So I can't imagine how she can sing opera as well as operetta arias. But in this album, she can sing operetta arias very beautifully! Her technique is too perfect to sing them. I think it is natural that they re-release this one as "Great Recording of the Century". My favorite track is the final track, "Wien, du Stadt meiner Traume". If you want to hear some of operetta arias for the first time, this one is good for you. You can enjoy the enchantment of operettas. Anyway, you must buy it at once and put it on your CD player!

Fantastic.......2006-06-30
First of all anything with Sir Solti's name on is worth purchasing. Solti has such a way with interpreting music! If you like overtures this CD is for you. It has the best overtures here in one collection. With orchestras like chicago, london, and the vienna you cannot argue with the performances. There are a few "weaker" ensembles, but when compared with the other ensembles there are few that will not sound weak. Again any work Solti has done is worth purchasing!
Famous Overtures.......2005-08-16
Did not like the way these musical pieces were "interpretted".
Did not like the tempo and in one piece one of the instruments played a portion which I would say they played a flat instead of a natural note. This is based on hearing the same pieces played by someone else, it's just my opinion.
Spectacular.......2003-09-25
Not only does it include some of the most famous overtures, but they are played in such an exciting style, full of life and passion. The Suppe overtures are superior and the Wagner overtures are wonderful as well. There is not a bad point to this recording - highly recommended!
Excellent.......2002-06-11
This is an excellent collection of overtures, especially of Von Suppe's overtures. Solti truly brings out life in these pieces.
The best Overture Album !.......2000-02-28
If you like overtures, here is the album. Never have these been performed so musically and with such excitement. The orchestras involved vary in their abilities, yet the Chicago, Vienna, and London Symphony perfom with style. Solti loves this music and it shows.

genial.......2004-12-10
Este CD doble es una maravilla, la famosisima Berliner Philahrmoniker que en este caso se reduce a algo asi como seccion de vientos de la berliner philharmoniker nos deleita con un conjunto increible de marchas de todos los tipos y para todos los gustos, solo se unen en la genial interpretacion.
La orquesta se reune en forma completa para entregarnos excepcionales versiones de la Marcha Eslava de Tchaikovsky y la Marcha de la Victoria de Wellington de Beethoven que incluye grabacion de artilleria (increible y fantastica).
La marcha Radetzki es genial, asi como alguna pequeñeses de Beethoven, marchas compuestas por emperadores y otros extraños compositores que hacen de este CD un deleite para los amantes de estas sincopadas obras musicales. Disfruten un CD genial.
A Great Value!!.......2003-11-22
Here is a collection of mostly German march music that is well worth the price! The performances are crisp and clean. One selection I was very surprised to find in this collection is the "Nibelungen Marsch" by Gottfried Sonntag. As the title implies,this march is based on Wagnerian themes. While this march was written decades before Hitler came to power in 1933, it became closely associated with the Nazi Party and it was always played in the Kongresshalle during the massing of the banners at the Nuremburg Rallies. As a result, the "Nibelungen Marsch" was banned from any sort of live or recorded performance after 1945 by the Allies. It must be remembered that this is NOT a Nazi march. It was, like many other marches, adapted by the Nazis for their own purposes. I'm glad to see that it is played here as the fine piece of classical music that it is. Again, this collection of marches is among the best and shouldn't be passed by!
A Unique Concept.......2002-09-30
Rather than an album of marches by a band or orchestra, this is a compilation, recorded between the late '60's and early '80's, of popular marches by the wind players of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, and classical marches by the full orchestra, brilliantly performed under the baton of maestro Herbert von Karajan (two numbers conducted by Hans Priem-Bergrath).
A comparison may be made with another album, "Prussia's Glory", by two British military bands, since the two have about a half dozen marches in common. The playing on this CD seems to me to be a bit lighter and more melodic, in other words, a little less "military", which makes sense, given the nature of the two groups. Which is "better", on the other hand, depends on the listener (I slightly prefer this group). And this disc wins on sheer quantity, being two CD's for the price of one, and does have more variety - classical pieces and a few non-German marches, but the other has much more complete liner notes, with information on each composer and selection. Of course, if you really like one, perhaps you would also want the other.
It would have been helpful if English translations were provided for each piece - most are in German, with the last several in French, to understand the meaning of each title, such as "Old Comrades" in addition to "Alte Kameraden", or "The Glory of Prussia" added to "Preussens Gloria".
A highly recommended collection of German and Eastern European marches, masterfully performed.
Examination by a German enthusiast.......2000-08-28
This is purely the best March tape I have ever bought. Not only does it offer 38 songs which is at least 18 more than most good CDs, it has extremely high quality sound recording and listing of the songs. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who likes Marches and more so to any fellow German!

Customer Reviews:
Well-recorded, jolly music.......2006-06-19
Yet another Naxos jem. This collection of famous operetta overtures by Austrian composer Franz von Suppe is not only an exceptional value, but the music included is just plain fun.
While his complete operettas are rarely performed, much of the music Suppe wrote for them has become famous, in particular LIGHT CAVALRY (which we've all heard in countless cartoons) and POET AND PEASANT. Suppe's overtures brim with good humor and infectiously catchy tunes; I would challenge anyone not to be uplifted by this recording.
The over-all technical qualities of this album are excellent. Not only does the (very talented) Slovak State Philharmonic play with enthusiasm, but audiophiles will appreciate the roudy brashness of the sound.
excellent value.......2000-05-29
This is an excellent value [...]. The Slovak Philharmonic is quite good. Recording quality is very good. Many of these Suppe' pieces are hard to find. It you like the composer, you will like this recording. Suppe' wrote many operettas and Slovak Philharmonic has recorded several volumes of the Suppe' overtures. I plan to purchase more in the series.
