4.0 out of 5 stars A masterpiece, June 23, 2000

Mark Leader (London England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: 3 Gymnopedies / 6 Gnossiennes (Audio CD)

Every song strikes a mood upon the room where you play it. The album includes the song from the advert for breathe.com, which is simply breathtaking. It is a cd which has not left my cd player, and is the perfect beckground for everyday life. My single critisism is that there is not enough change in mood, songs remain at one level, and do not attempt to try something different, however, what the selection succeeds in is creating a cd which has the ability to send the listener into a dream world track after track, i recommend this highly

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended...but out of print, October 27, 2006

Sad to see great CDs out of print. Seow, who apparently was a multi-award winning pianist (have to admit that I've never heard of him), plays beautifully on these pieces, especially the Gymnopedies (sp?).

Many people have tackled these pieces; I don't think you'll be disappointed with this recording (if you can find it!)
