5.0 out of 5 stars UTTERLY CAPTIVATING - BAYLESS OUTDOES HIMSELF!, February 23, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Romantica (Audio CD)

If you thought John Bayless could not improve upon his album of piano arrangements of Puccini arias, you were wrong. "Romantica" is a disc of gorgeous melodies, including Italian opera and contemporary film scores. The exquisite arrangements, all by Mr. Bayless, feature solo piano and orchestra, with an occasional tenor thrown in for good measure. This is a recording to listen to over and over and over. It reminds us what great music has emanated from Italy and what great artists live today in the U.S.A. A sensational compact disc!.

5.0 out of 5 stars Musical genius creates an incredible masterpiece, January 1, 2000

I saw John Bayless a year or two ago in concert and was blown away. The word "genius" does not come close to describing his gift. This CD is breathtaking, brilliantly displaying his talents. My favorites are the large sweeping themes of Cinema Paradisio and Time to Say Goodbye. The CD is easy to listen to over and over again as every piece is a triumph. This music will lift you and float you away.

I am very fastenated and truly intrested in this CD. You will be able to let your imagination be free. John Bayless has truly touch the heart of myself and many people, and always amazes me with the true fellings and emotions that I have experienced scince I was a little child. This album fucuses on the true balence between the piano and the instuments along with voices that was used in this spledid CD. It was one of my best investments that I will have forever. I saw John Bayless live as a child at the Cornado Theater in Rockford Il. and ever since have grown close to his music and him as well as a close friend. Do not underestimate the true power of emotions through his music! I highly recommend purchasing this exsquisit piece of art. John Bayless is not only a genius, but a loved artist throughout the world. John has gone to the great musical school of Juillard at the age of 17 and has found a great portion of his potential in composing and improvising. Please consider making this investment and you too will be touch.
