Good for relaxing pregnant women
I stumbled onto this album whilst searching bit torrent websites for classical music. I don't normally listen to classical music but thought it might be relaxing for my pregnant wife. After hearing the quality of the performances, the arrangement, and the recording I ...

Jacqueline du Pré

BBC / Opus Arte, 2004

Jacqueline du Pre In Portrait
A great, great DVD, bringing her to life. We have watched it over and over. The "Ghost" extra is just wonderful.

EMI Classics, 1990

Wonderful Collection
This is a wonderful collection of Jacqueline du Pre's work, both because it traces her development as an artist, her unique interaction with various conductors and her interpretations of a variety of composers. Jacueline du Pre is a cellist for all time.

Elgar: Cello Concerto; "Enigma" Variations

Jacqueline du Pré, Edward Elgar, ...

Sony, 2005

A word about DuPre and the 'Elgar'
Why has one piece of music here, the Elgar Cello Concerto played by Jacqueline DuPre become so legendary? Of course it is the music itself. It has an overpowerful haunting deeply hypnotic feeling. Elgar wrote it after his recovery from a serious illness towards the ...

Jacqueline du Pré, William Pleeth, ...

EMI Classics, 2007

Bad times for the world, but good times for the admirers of Jacqueline Du Pré
These are bad times for the world at large - as I write, the US financial system is threatening a giant systemic collapse, the US are mired in Irak and Afghanistan, with Russia occupying half of Georgia a new Cold War is looming large, Chinese babies are dying by the ...

Best Romantic Classics 100

Han-Na Chang, Jacqueline du Pré, ...

EMI Classics, 2008

Soothes the Soul
Two weeks ago, I was sitting in a bookstore when the strains of music came over the sound system and distracted me from my reading several times. But this distraction wasn't Johnny Paycheck's "Take This Job and Shove It" (vile), "The Streak," or "Honey, I Miss You." ...

The Most Relaxing Chamber Music Album in the World ... Ever!

David Geringas, Frederic Lodeon, ...

Angel Records, 2005

Indeed relaxing
We live in a very hectic world and we as humans need to take time to relax. The soothing sounds of Chamber Music is just what the doctor ordered. Coupled with a good book, or just before bed, and the hours kind of just drift away. Sample the sounds online, if this ...

Jacqueline Du Pre: A Celebration of Her Unique Enduring Gift

Vladimir Ashkenazy, Daniel Barenboim

Christopher Nupen, 2007

WONDERFUL!!!!!!
For me this is the best Nupen's film about Jackie. It has "Who was Jacqueline du Pré?", "Interlude with Johannes Brahms" a previously unpublished interview and "Remembering Jacqueline du Pré". It's more than 3 hours of music and words of people who knew her best to ...

Brahms: Cello Sonatas; Bruch: Kol Nidrei; Jacqueline Du Pre

Jacqueline Du Pre, Daniel Barenboim, ...

EMI Classics, 2002

Incredible Brahms
I'm giving this disc five stars even though the Bruch really isn't very good (at least, in the orchestra - the winds are horribly out of tune; also, some solo trills are quite sharp [mic was probably too close, since you do have to trill sharp to get it to sound in ...

Dvorák: Schumann: Cello Concertos

Jacqueline du Pré, Antonin Dvorak, ...

EMI Classics, 2004

Du Pre Does a Delightful Dvorak
EMI's latest reissue creation is the "Great Artists of the Century" series, and this title featuring cellist Jacqueline du Pre is one of the initial 25 offerings. Both the Dvorak and Schumann Cello Concertos featured here, with hubby Daniel Barenboim conducting the ...

Elgar: The Collector's Edition (30 CDs)

Derek Hammond-Stroud, Peter Glossop, ...

Emi Classics, 2007

Great Bargain of Elgar Masterworks and Forgotten Gems!
Like Sony's Stravinsky set, this Elgar set from EMI seems to want to challenge the Brilliant Classics label by providing lots of music for little money. This costs more than the Stravinsky, but you get 30 cds here as opposed to the 22 in the Stravinsky set. On the ...

Elgar: Orchestral Works

Jacqueline du Pré, Edward Elgar, ...

EMI Classics, 2006

Barbirolli's excellent Elgar interpretations
This box contains a collection of Barbirolli's late Elgar recordings for EMI, from the sixties. All recordings have been previously released as singular discs, but some - e.g., the symphonies - are out of print. This box is thus a welcome release. Barbirolli's Elgar ...
