composed by Robert Schumann

Schumann's solo piano music has had plenty of advocates, his solo vocal music has had lots of advocates, his orchestral music has had enough advocates, and even his infrequently played chamber music has had a sufficient number of advocates to keep it in the fringes of the standard repertoire. But Schumann's choral music -- forget about it! ...

composed by Stephen Johnson

There are some things to recommend Stephen Johnson's introduction to Der Ring des Nibelungen, but the same critique that's often leveled against Der Ring itself applies to this commentary: it's awfully long. In fact, it's longer than Das Rheingold. But for the listener who's willing to devote more than two and a half hours to getting acclimated to ...

composed by Richard Wagner

Is this the great American Ring? It may be: with the Met's maestro James Levine on the podium, the alert and opulent Met Orchestra in the pit, James Morris as a commanding Wotan, Gary Lakes as a virile yet vulnerable Siegmund, Jessye Norman as a strong yet sensual Sieglinde, and Kathleen Battle as a delightful Forest Bird, this certainly is the ...

composed by Gustav Mahler

Judged on its clarity of detail and faithfulness to the score, this recording of Mahler's majestic Symphony No. 8 ranks as one of the most exacting and authoritative ever made. Yet there are less tangible aspects to which the excellence of this performance must be attributed. Riccardo Chailly paces this symphony in long, confident strides, neither ...

composed by Dmitry Shostakovich

Not bad as far as it goes, Mark Wigglesworth and the Netherlands Radio Choir and Philharmonic Orchestra's performance of Shostakovich's Symphony No. 13 goes nowhere near far enough. There's plenty of power in the playing -- listen to the walloping attack of the tympani, the blistering tone of the brass, and the searing strength of the strings -- ...
