Editorial Product Review: :A trio of noted Australian musicians--Iva Davies, Richard Tognetti and Christopher Gordon--composed the film's score. They previously collaborated on 'The Ghost of Time,' a piece commissioned for the Millennium celebrations in Sydney, which came to the attention of Peter Weir. The director was so impressed, he played the piece on the Master And Commander set throughout production, and he asked its creators to write the music for his movie. The score interweaves 'Old World' and 'New World' music, reflecting the talents and backgrounds of its composers. Iva Davies hails from both ...
Editorial Product Review: : Emmanuel Pahud is an amazing flute virtuoso, and he shows it in these sparkling Vivaldi Concertos. He whips up the waves in the Op. 10, No. 1, better known as 'The Storm at Sea.' Faster movements throughout these works are taken at a spanking pace, but with Pahud's breath control and ability to shape phrases at any tempo, he's not fazed at all. Those faster movements are done with energetic playing by all hands, the Australian Chamber Orchestra proving their mettle by matching the soloist and providing ample charms of their ...

Editorial Product Review: :Today's guitar repertoire thrives on transcriptions, and this program makes for fascinating comparison for that very reason. The Giuliani is real guitar music. Williams plays it superbly, of course, and the composer's inspiration in this work is high on charm, with the last two movements consisting of elegantly stylized dances. Schubert's sonata, however, here arranged for guitar and string orchestra, is another matter entirely. The problem is that the music makes no sense at all with a guitar as soloist. The instrument has none of the sustaining qualities of a viola or ...
Editorial Product Review:Album Details:Angela Hewitt Performed and Recorded with the Australian Chamber Orchestra in February 2005, a Perfect Collaboration Resulting in Two Volumes of Bach Keyboard Concertos. :This delectable collection of Bach Keyboard concertos is so unsullied by tradition or a point to prove that the listener is left refreshed. Angela Hewitt plays with such warmth and song-like smoothness in the slow movements that they are little islands of repose in the midst of Bach's perky outer movements, which Hewitt and conductor-violinist Richard Tognetti launch with unmatched verve, rhythmic thrust and quick-but-never-rushed tempi. The ...

The Pharos GPS Phone 600e isn't a horrible smart phone, but the lack of navigation software and subpar call quality detracts from its overall appeal. Plus, you can get more for your money with other GPS-enabled smart phones.
