Free Music Review: Can Music Be Too Sweet?
Hit: 5 Stars
Can music be too sweet? This philosophical question is worth pondering about. In the meantime go ahead and satisfy your musical sweet tooth with Shaham-S?llscher "Schubert for Two". This recording is a must for anybody who ever played violin and/or guitar. Mr. Shaham's rich and expressive vibrato is exactly how the vibrato was sounding in your young heart. Mr. S?llscher's sweet plucking will reincarnate your very first taste of guitar's sweetness, in a form of melodic exercises by Fernando Carruli. Your heart will ache with the desire to have back the sweet, innocent, uncomplicated, sunny music life of your childhood. You will love the "Arpeggione" piece. It will not sweep you off your feet, like the passionate, lush performance by Yuri Bashmet, but it will charm your socks off.
The booklet which comes with the CD is informative and engaging. It is full of fascinating details, such as the description of the now forgotten instrument arpeggione. This instrument was a hybrid between a guitar and a viola da gamba. It had six strings and frets like a guitar, but it was played with a bow. It was held between the knees! It is now solely remembered by the Schubert's composition titled after it. The booklet offers an insight into the music of Schubert and the making of this particular transcription and performance, as well as an interview with Shaham and S?llscher.
Schubert for Two (Dig) Poster
This CD's main attraction for many will be Gil Shaham's velvety violin in gorgeous, largely off-beat music. Others will relish these Schubert works in arrangements that replace the piano with the expert guitar of G?ran S?llscher, enhancing the impression of hearing Schubert's music in the intimate domestic setting for which it was written. Most of the works are short, melodically rich dance-based gems on which Shaham and S?llscher lavish a Romantic tonal fullness and freedom rarely heard these days. Sometimes that's a bit too much of a good thing, as works like the Violin Sonata in D veer close to the sentimental. But more often the players' flexible approach makes it hard not to keep repeating items like the melting Serenade from Schwanengesang, the sprightly Moment musical in Kreisler's arrangement, the German Dance, and a truckload of other delights. Shaham isn't afraid to linger over attractive melodies or to use portamento and other weapons of the Romantic violin's arsenal, helping to make this disc so compelling. --Dan DavisClassical Music CDs
