Free Music Notes for The Ultimate Guitar CollectionFree Music Review: awesome Hit: 5 StarsThis cd has the best of John Williams all in one package. I would highly reccomend this cd to anyone who loves classical guitar.
Free Music Review: Amazing Music Hit: 5 StarsThis album was absolutely amazing. I find myself listening to it almost every day. The music to "The Mission" alone is worth the price.
Free Music Review: The Best Compilation of the Man on 2 Discs! Great Sound Quality Too! Hit: 5 StarsThe title very aptly describes this great classical guitar album showcasing some of the best ever works of John Williams on 2 discs. The track selections are great as they span the centuries from the Baroque greats of Bach and Vivaldi to the modern day composers such as Stanley Myers and York. John even flirts with Blues and Jazz-style pieces and they actually sound very good. In addition, they did a much better mastering job on this version than on the single disc, "Classic John Williams" album that was released a few years earlier and so the sound quality is much better. John Williams' playing is without peer and his technique is superior to the vast majority of the exponents of classical guitar that are out there. I've heard recordings of many others who have tried to play "Cavatina" for example and they have never come close to the natural and flowing version that John plays. If you are a fan of this type of music or of John Williams' work, this is the best compilation that you can get that's out there. Highly recommended!
Free Music Review: Relaxing and Enticing to the Ear Hit: 5 StarsThe first song on this set is why I bought the whole album. It blows you away listening to the precise picking and the gorgeous way it is done. Not robotic like some freaks out there. This is true beautiful music. Runs together like a long summer drive in the country. It is just a perfect album to listen to at home or on the go.
Free Music Review: A little something for everybody Hit: 5 StarsFirst, this is gorgeous guitar playing by someone who knows what he's doing. John Williams (not to be confused by the film score composer of the same name) is a superb classical guitarist. Many of these pieces are *classical* in nature, while a few are more *popular*. Many are solo, the rest in small chamber groups. Some will get your toes tapping, some will start you daydreaming, and some will make you cry with their beauty. All of it is magnificent.
