5.0 out of 5 stars Mack is the Man, December 9, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: John Mack, Oboe Mozart: Quartet, K.370/Loeffler: Deux Rhapsodies/Paladilhe: Solo De Concert/Britten: Six Metamorphoses (Audio CD)

John Mack is, needless to say, an amazing musician and a brilliant oboe player, and this disc is an excellent representation of his art. I especially love the Loeffler trio, which I think is such a beautiful piece, and here we get to enjoy the combination of Mack's gorgeous sound with the luscious warmth of the viola in ways I wish more romantic composers had explored! An unusual collection of music but well worth a listen (or two, or seven...)!

This review is from: John Mack, Oboe Mozart: Quartet, K.370/Loeffler: Deux Rhapsodies/Paladilhe: Solo De Concert/Britten: Six Metamorphoses (Audio CD)

John Mack has always been one of the best to play the oboe, and on this CD he is no exception. A fun and lively Mozart Quartet, gorgeous Loeffler Rhapsodies, and a rich recording of the Britten. I am never disappointed by Mack's performances...he consistently has a beautiful sound with such smooth phrasing. He is truly a 5 star musician.

This review is from: John Mack, Oboe Mozart: Quartet, K.370/Loeffler: Deux Rhapsodies/Paladilhe: Solo De Concert/Britten: Six Metamorphoses (Audio CD)

All of John Mack's performances on this disc are wonderful, but the Loeffler is an amazing work that is well worth hearing. I've also had the pleasure of playing this piece and wish we could hear moe of this composers work.
