5.0 out of 5 stars Go ahead indulge! I won't tell!, August 23, 2008
This review is from: Russian Romance (Audio CD)
Kudos go to NAXOS for producing this sweet box of musical candy. How can a Czech conductor, Japanese violinist, and a Ausie orchestra pull off such a satisfying program of Russian folk songs? These miniatures by obscure or annoymous composers are given colorful, full-blown, lavish, orchestrations by arranger conductor Peter Breiner. To offset all the Hollywoodian sonics he has written in delicate solo violin parts especially for the esteemed Takako Nishizaki. She affectionately accents each piece.
They appear together on a couple of other NAXOS compilations too! Anyone who enjoys the music of Tchaikovsky, Rimsky Korsakov, or for that matter
Brahms and Dvorak, will relish this disc. Several of the selections heard here are quoted in famed Russian compositions. The sound engineering is one of NAXOS best, spacious, lush, and clear in detail.
I'm sure the purists will have a problem with this, but this CD is an orchestral feast for anyone who wants one!

This review is from: Russian Romance (Audio CD)
Like almost every Naxos collection, I have ever listened to Russian Romance is quite a treat to listen to. This disc contains Russian folk songs from their long history including older ones as well as ones crated by Soviet composers, using the perfectly played violin of vioinl of Nishizaki( who fills in the vocal parts) and the Queensland symphony orchestra these twelve songs enchanting and sweetly played .highly recommended

5.0 out of 5 stars Russian Romance, September 20, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Russian Romance (Audio CD)
Excellent especially violin solo part in Moscow Nights, and this album is quite difficult to find in the market but only Amazon probably so you need to drag it ASAP.
