Simply fantastic
Adolfo Fuentes | 05/07/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I am a 29 years-old violin musician. To be concise, you will never obtain so, so much for such a little price. Some of the works were originally written for Spanish guitar, and others exclusively for violin, as those from Sarasate, and the violin performance of all of them together is simply fantastic."
Perlman Is Outstanding!

"This CD features Itzhak Perlman at his best! I have bought several of these bargain discs on the EMI label, and I am yet to be disappointed. They feature great artists and great music - every one! Perlman is magnificent on this disc. His unique style and fiery temperament are perfectly represented. I only wish that EMI had advertised that the disc featured Spanish selections exclusively. I was particularly attracted by Sarasate's Bizet Carmen Fantasy, but all of the cuts were very satisfactory. If I had been in charge of producing the disc, I might have selected a few other pieces, but otherwise I cannot quarrel with what is an outstanding CD at any price, much less the ridiculously low price at which EMI offers these bargains. A must add to any collection of violin music, classical music in general, or Itzhak Perlman in particular!"
Perlman in Top Form.....

"These pieces are no stroll through the park. They are some of the most challenging violin pieces to master, but Perlman tears through them like he is playing Chop Sticks. When Perlman shines he radiates like a supernova. For Sarasate, this is the most you will find of him by Perlman on one CD; it's a shame he didn't do the whole CD in Sarasate. I am glad they remastered the recording; too many harmonics lost without it. This isn't a CD that should be played in the background, there is just too much violin happening to miss it. If you really want a CD to listen to some excellent violin playing this is it."
