5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!!, February 26, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: John Carbon (Audio CD)

I love this CD. I have listened to it in my car now at least 40 times. It is such beautiful music. It has lovely melodies and big moments as well as quiet, reflective parts as well. I love new music in general (hate baroque), but this is one of my favorites. Congrats John Carbon!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Performances of Important New Works, February 26, 2004

Ferdinand Ojare (Des Moines, IA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: John Carbon (Audio CD)

I had the opportunity to hear one of the pieces on this fine new recording broadcast in Boston on a classical radio station on Halloween. I think John Carbon is one of the most imaginative composers writing orchestral music today. His music really says something rather than being a collection of sounds designed to impress without touching the soul of the listener. The performances by three soloists (all unknown to me before) are very impressive and quite moving.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes great dance music, November 22, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: John Carbon (Audio CD)

I recently saw a choreographed version of Rasgos and enjoyed it alot. There are driving rhythms and a good measure of humor in the piece. I like the Spanish flavor and the dance had some multmedia slides of Goya's sketches. Claire Chan's playing (the violinist) is really quite beautiful as is the harp writing. Really this is more of a concerto for harp and violin with winds--really unique. This is Carbon's more neo-classical mode (as opposed to his more brash neo-romantic fervor).
