The Essential Yo-Yo Ma (2005) more music like this

performed by Alison Krauss (vocals), Antonio Agri (violin), Bobby McFerrin (vocals), César Camargo Mariano (piano), Claude Bolling (piano), Cyro Baptista (percussion), Daniel Humair (drums), Edgar Meyer (bass), Emanuel Ax (piano), Gaby Casadesus (piano)

Unlike the recent Classic Yo-Yo, really a single-disc sampler of the recorded work of our true superstar cellist, The Essential Yo-Yo Ma purports to be something more -- the Yo-Yo Ma album to own if you're going to own just one. Where Classic Yo-Yo more or less alternated track by track between Ma's straight classical and crossover music, The ...

Copland: Appalachian Spring; Rodeo; Billy the Kid; Fanfare for the Common Man (1997) more music like this

performed by New York Philharmonic, Leonard Bernstein (conductor)
composed by Aaron Copland

With the possible exception of Sergey Koussevitsky, who introduced his music to the world, Aaron Copland had no greater supporter than Leonard Bernstein. More than any other conductor, Bernstein strenuously campaigned for Copland's work and generously helped secure the composer's enormous and lasting popularity. One may still find Bernstein's ...

Czech composer Hans Krása wrote Brundibár, a half hour children's opera, for performance at a Prague orphanage, but he was deported to Terezín before its premiere. A copy of the vocal score found its way to Terezín, and Krása reorchestrated it in 1943. The opera received over 50 performances by children in the camp before the composer was ...

performed by Sidney Harth (violin), Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Fritz Reiner (conductor)
composed by Igor Stravinsky, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov

Symphonic enough? Of course it is. Listen to the glisten of the brass. Listen to the shine on those strings. Listen to warmth of the winds. Inch for inch and pound for pound, Fritz Reiner and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra's 1956 recording of Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade is the biggest, boldest Scheherazade ever recorded. Although not usually ...

This disc repackages tracks of a romantic mood from a variety of Yo-Yo Ma discs released over the course of his strong-selling album career. A few of them (track 2, for example) come from recordings of straight-ahead classical repertory, and there are several new tracks, but most are taken from the cellist's fabulously successful series of ...

composed by Herbert L. Clarke, Herman Bellstedt, Irish Traditional, Jean-Baptiste Arban, Jules Levy, Niccolň Paganini, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Thomas Moore (composer/poet), Traditional Spiritual

Here, Wynton Marsalis switches to cornet and tries to recreate the ambience of the proverbial village wind bands of long ago -- albeit with the emphatically big-league help of Donald Hunsberger and the massive Eastman Wind Ensemble. This means a program of transcriptions of classical tunes, variations on popular ditties, dollops of sentimentality, ...
