CD Reviews

Tchaikovsky at his best for "everyman"

Ilja Sulik | Slovakia | 10/06/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Of course, you can't talk about "Ultimate edition" of Tchaikovsky's music with only 5-CD-Box, but what you get for this price (now for unbelievable 11 USD!), is the most basic and popular of his great work - and all that in great artistic and sound quality! My personal favourite CD from this collection is without doubt the CD Nr. 2 - Vladimir Ashkenazy with St. Petersburg Orchestra and Chorus with the "war horses" like 1812 (one of the best I've ever heard - pls see my review on Amazon.com about this single CD by Decca Classic, Import), Romeo & Julliet and Serenade for Strings. There are conductors like Haitink (Symphony Nr. 5 + The Storm) or Dutoit (Ballet suites, Symphony Nr. 6 + Francesa di Rimini), there are artists like Henryk Szeryng (violine) or Rafael Orozco (piano) on CD Nr. 1 (famous Piano Concerto Nr. 1 in B flat minor and Violin Concert in D, Op. 35). Buy it, because I don't know a better (and cheaper) way to get so much great music by so great artists. All the recordings on this CD-Box are issued in the past by Decca on many single CDs (most of them are out-of-print or hard-to-find), so you can get it all-in-one. You will be sure not disappointed."
