5.0 out of 5 stars
The magic of Anderson strikes again.,
By chrisbraime@chrisbraime.free-online.co.uk (York, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cimarosa's Oboe Concerto; Concerti by Albinoni, Marcello & Vivaldi (Audio CD)
I never cease to be amazed by this player. And this CD is no exception. John Anderson undertakes some of the most breathtaking and exciting performances of what are now mainstays of the Oboe repetoire, breathing total new life into concertos that have, in some cases been played many times before on CD. Including a solo which was used for the film 'The Firm.' He is well supported by Simon Wright, and the String section of the Philharmonia Orchestra, with their ever glorious tone. This CD is a must for anyone who has a love for a particular composer on the disc, or the oboe itself. To put it simply, this CD is a masterpiece.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Cimarosa's Oboe Concerto; Concerti by Albinoni, Marcello & Vivaldi (Audio CD)
Here the Venetian composers of some great oboe concertos with the addition of Benjamin's rearrangement of Cimarosa's keyboard sonatas for Barvirolli's oboe shine.Oboeist Anderson is consistent in exquisite performance. Wright's able conducting of the Philharmonia Orchestra provides a glorious backdrop to the solo pieces. Especially fond of Cimarosa/Benjamin's Concerto and Albioni's Concerto in B flat. Besides these, there are wonderful concertos by Vivaldi and Marcello. This is marvelous addition to growing oboe collection.

Five times Five Stars,
By Giordano Bruno (Wherever I am, I am.) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)
This review is from: Cimarosa's Oboe Concerto; Concerti by Albinoni, Marcello & Vivaldi (Audio CD)
I first heard this disk on my car radio while driving on a California freeway. I was so "jazzed" that I pulled off at the next exit to write down the details for ordering it, something I've never done before or since. This is artful, sensuous music played with stunning virtuosity. Don't miss it!
