Really Compelling Stuff; They Get Into It

merryl | Los Angeles, CA | 04/16/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Well, I was intrigued by a piece on war to start with, and not really familiar with Casella. And to hear music based on World War I newsreels fits in with my theatrical passions. I was mesmerized. Pages of War is worth the price of admission, and could provide the basis for a lecture on music and military tactics, it is so vivid. Program notes by Dr. Jurgen Thym are really helpful there. The Goetz Sonata is pure romatic drive from start to finish. Didn't know what to expect there. For listeners looking for something new that is both exciting and wonderfully performed and recorded, go ahead. Wish there was more of this kind of "go for broke" performing out there. Are you sure these guys are married?"
