Free Music Notes for Appassionato
Free Music Review: Not sure what to say
Hit: 2 Stars
Unfortunately, while I received confirmation from amazon that this had shipped, and was charged for the item, I never received it. I can't find a phone number, and my efforts to secure it via amazon's "where's my order" service and UPS tracking, were so time-consuming and tedious that I gave up in order not to spend hours at work on the tasks. I would like to resolve the issue, and receive another CD that shipped with this one, and it finally occurred to me that this review might help.Free Music Review: There Aren't Enough Stars...
Hit: 5 Stars
Of the thousands of albums/cds I have purchased in my lifetime -- were I to have to pick only one to keep -- this would be it.
The mark of the collection is an exquisite sensibility and technical excellence. In several of the pieces, you can feel as if your soul, rather than musical instruments, is being played -- but nothing mundane, boring, sophomoric, sentimental, or trite. The choice of material is intelligent and intuitive -- the taste of a great musician. The culmination piece by Ennio Morricone could arguably be considered the most beautiful 2 plus minutes of recorded music. It is nothing short of a cry to heaven.
Five stars -- hardly enough -- there aren't enough stars for me to rate this.
Free Music Review: Refreshing beauty
Hit: 5 Stars
A beautiful CD, with freshness and clarity.
A well balanced selection of pieces and wonderfully produced, to show each instrument at its best.
Accessible for a wide range of listeners, this collection has "heart" without being overly sentimental.
Free Music Review: It's good...
Hit: 4 Stars
It's good, but it has a lot of repeat material that you find on other CD's.Free Music Review: Beautiful!

This is the best I've heard from Yo-Yo Ma. You can tell these selections are his favorites by the passion with which he plays. My favorite is Cinema Paradisio. Absolutely wonderful!!!
