Superb,
By DWPC (Ventura, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ancient Airs & Dances / The Birds (Audio CD)
All too infrequently can one find a superb performance of classical work that is equally well recorded. This disk is one of them. Gee's treatment of Resphigi's airs is wonderful, as is the playing. This ensemble should get much more exposure. It's really too bad Resphigi didn't apply his rich, more modern touch to more baroque pieces than these and those few Bach works he transcribed. A throughly enjoyable cd worthy of the most revealing audio equipment.

It is a shame this disc is no longer available through Amazon, because it is superb. Also, the current picture of the cd cover used by Amazon is not the correct cover. I was only familiar with Respighi's Roman triptych until I stumbled upon this cd. "The Birds" is lovely music, melodic and peaceful and the "Ancient Airs and Dances" is equally pleasing. The Australian Chamber Orchestra sounds world class here, and the sound quality is excellent. Again, it is a mystery why so many quality recordings like this are not available. Note to Omega Records: Please bring this one back.
