Customer Rating:      Summary: The very best Comment: It's hard to get excited about this music, most of it played to death on Classic FM. However, the quality of the performances and the recordings are so exemplary I could enjoy these all over again.
Buy these even if you have the music already. You really owe your collection this CD.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Detail you just dont hear elsewhere! Comment: One might have thought that the Ballet suites have been recorded too many times, for anyone to get excited about 'another' recording! In truth these are fabulous performances, with inner detail that I have to say I haven't heard in any other recordings! At an incredibly low price, I urge anyone thinking of buying a recording of the suites to look no further.
A superb cellist and wonderful conductor, golly how we will miss him!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Outstanding Tchaikovsky disc Comment: Outstanding versions of Tchaikovsky’s three popular ballet suites. The Berlin Philharmonic is in glowing form and Mstislav Rostropovich on the rostrum sounds inspired as none else. Warmly and dynamically recorded, with plenty of orchestral detail, this thrilling disc may stand as a criterion from the analogue era. If you only need the suites, or if you think this music no longer holds any surprises for you, this is the CD to go for. Highly recommended.
