5.0 out of 5 stars Perfection, March 30, 2009

This review is from: Sinfonietta (Audio CD)

What a wonderful CD! The music, performer, and organ all sound great. The performer especially shines here. The quality of musicianship, I think, is unparalleled for the organ. Most of the music is fairly well known material... Enough so that it sounds familiar, but arranged in a way that keeps you very much interested. 5 stars for the music, performer, and instrument! A perfect trifecta!

I'm delighted Josh Perschbacher arranged Janacek's Sinfonietta for the organ. This is one of my favorite Czech compositions. There is so much color and life in this recording, and the final (Town Hall) is amazingly extravagant. Icecut is also a fascinating piece by American Composer Dennis Bathory-Kitsz. It's like a study of an isolated winter with a touch of the sinister and heavy dose of the overwhelming futility of trying to escape it... at least until spring arrives. In all, a very satisfying musical experience.

These are very unusual arrangements and sound great on the organ. The CD has been welded into my stereo for the past week. 5 stars.
