CD Reviews

Beautiful Copland Sonata and Barber Canzone

ivan1138 | Tallahassee,FL USA | 01/14/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"What I know about classical music could only half fill a thimble. However, I do know what I like. Gershwin's "3 Preludes" are delightful. The Copland "Sonata for Violin and Piano" is exceptionally well done. The Barber "Canzone for Violin and Piano" is a lovely finale. The entire CD is well worth listening to repeatedly. Previn and Shamam in top form - no wonder this won a Grammy Award."

Good showcase of American Composers.

"Shaham and Previn make great use of violin and piano to display a good selection of works by American Composer, including Gershwin, Copland and Barber. Recommended."
