Essential Guitar: 33 Guitar Masterpieces

Essential Guitar: 34 Gtr Masterpieces

Decca, 2002

Two-and-a-half hours of bliss
This may be the best money I've ever spent. I got 2-1/2 hours of bliss for less than what I'd usually pay for one CD -- and you know how it is with music. You buy an album because of a song or two that you love, and you find that you like maybe half the songs on it. ...

Spanish Guitar Music

Isaac Albeniz, Mateo Albeniz, ...

Sony, 2002

Excellent Introduction to Spanish Classical Guitar Music
As a sampler, this CD is an excellent introduction both to Spanish classical guitar music and to guitarist John Williams. The music ranges from Renaissance composers (Sanz, Mudarra) and harmonized folk melodies to standard 20th Century works (Rodrigo, Torroba etc). ...

Albéniz: Iberia; Granados: Goyescas

Isaac Albeniz, Enrique Granados, ...

Decca, 1997

Best CD I own
It's kind of weird, my being an 18 year old, to say a classical piano cd is my favorite. But, I'm a classical pianist, and a huge fan of Albeniz (and spanish music in general) and this is the best performance of these two incredible works you will find. Alicia de ...

The Most Relaxing Piano Album in the World...Ever!

Isaac Albeniz, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

EMI Classics, 2001

Beautiful piano music!
This is simply an exquisite collection of beautiful piano pieces. I am very satisfied with this purchase. I can read while listening to this music-call it background music...maybe, but even when you're doing something else-the music is there...it does not intrude, but ...

Kultur Video, 2007

A must have!
This is the first item i ever purchased at Amazon...and I agree with the other customers...this is a must have if you like classical music...those compositions are MASTERPIECES and John Williams is a guitar VIRTUOSO...that's all you have to know. MASTERPIECES + ...

Christopher Parkening - The Great Recordings ~ By America's Preeminent Guitar Virtuoso

Johann Sebastian Bach, François Couperin, ...

EMI Classics, 1993

A gentleman musical agreement!
In guitar ` s playing there have been many renowned performers, gifted of exuberant technique. But curiously the Apollonian playing is not by itself strictly enough. The guitar is the instrument which is closer to heart as any other one. It demands from you passion and ...

Classic Williams: Romance of the Guitar

Isaac Albeniz, Anonymous, ...

Sony, 2000

The Aranjuez Adagio is Perfection
The second movement adagio of the Aranjuez concert is one of my favourite pieces, a very difficult one to get right. I've listened to well over a dozen variations, the one on this CD, track 19, is an absolute gem. Just by itself is reason enough to own this CD. The ...

Reflections of Spain: Spanish Favorites for Guitar

David Russell, Isaac Albeniz, ...

Telarc, 2002

The Best
This is the best Spanish guitar CDs that I have found. Even with "Essential Guitar: 33 Guitar Masterpieces" having more tracks and two CDs, this is better material. I am not saying that "33 Guitar Masterpiece" was bad, I actually rate it second. No need to skip ...

300 Years of Guitar Masterpieces

Isaac Albeniz, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

Vox (Classical), 1992

Exquisite
I was browsing Amazon, shopping for gifts, and when I listened to the snippets of this, I couldn't resist ordering it for myself. It's a 3CD set of beautiful, varied music played by a brilliantly skilled and sensitive master. Barrueco has an extraordinary touch that ...

Art of Segovia

Andres Segovia

Deutsche Grammophon, 2002

Great Sound Quality; Great Value
The 24-bit remastering of these analog recordings from the 1950s and 60s is outstanding. Both disks are chock-full at almost 80 minutes each, and there are a good many songs you don't hear every day. Forty of the 41 tracks are solos, while a short Rodrigo orchestral ...

The Segovia Collection

Jascha Bernstein, Dionysio Aguado, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2002

beautiful selection of the decca segovia
there probably wasn't a classical guitarist alive in the 1950's and 60's who didn't know by heart all of segovia's decca albums and julian bream's spectacular recordings for rca and westminster. this set will be a stroll down memory lane for everyone with segovia ...

Ultimate Violin Classics: The Essential Masterpieces
Isaac Albeniz, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Decca, 2007

Juliian Bream Ultimate Guitar Collection

Mateo Albeniz, Francis Cutting, ...

RCA, 1999

One well worth the price of two
This two cd set is an odd juxtaposition. The first cd consists of a sampler of Bream's career output - but without (and I believe the omission is disgraceful) any acknowledgement of Bream's significant contribution toward the creation of a truly 20th century concert ...

The Royal Family of the Spanish Guitar

Isaac Albeniz, Enrique Granados, ...

Philips, 1997

The Royal Family of Spanish Guitar
Superb. There is just nothing more to say.

The Best of Andrés Segovia: The Millennium Collection

Isaac Albeniz, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 2004

Excellent Segovia Disc for Beginners!!!
Although I had been familiar with Andres Segovia for pretty much all my life, I never really heard or owned anything by the great Spanish guitar legend until I purchased this - "The Millenium Collection". After listening to this CD only once, I've come to realize why ...
