3.0 out of 5 stars Cover of HD DVD Misleading, March 12, 2008

This review is from: Vivaldi - The Four Seasons / Concertos for Double Orchestra - Acoustic Reality Experience [HD DVD] (HD DVD)

I purchased this title in the hopes of seeing a live symphony orchestra playing the "Four Seasons". What I got instead was a slide show. If the visuals were actual film of the countryside subjects presented it might have been pretty good. However the images are static and not very involving. The music one the other hand is quite good. The soundtrack is in surrond (they used a double orchestras) and it does a good job of giving a sense of being at the performance. Too bad the visuals don't match up with the music.

1.0 out of 5 stars Warning:This HDDVD contains NO live orchestra - JUST pictures, April 23, 2008

This review is from: Vivaldi - The Four Seasons / Concertos for Double Orchestra - Acoustic Reality Experience [HD DVD] (HD DVD)

This is preposterous and completely unacceptable!
This HDDVD is a mere slideshow with the classic masterpiece accompanying. If I wanted this, I would buy a dvd-A. I was also annoyed by the fact that they are mentioning that the visual os 1080p. High definition my a_s.
Amazon should stop selling this crooky product.Thanks/John.

1.0 out of 5 stars What You See is not What You Get, March 17, 2008

This review is from: Vivaldi - The Four Seasons / Concertos for Double Orchestra - Acoustic Reality Experience [HD DVD] (HD DVD)

With a proliferation of Vivaldi Four Seasons recordings in CD, SACD and DVD-Audio formats, this HD-DVD should have been the standout item in ones collection that is already brimming with multiple versions of the same. With the cover offering a tantilising glimpse of the orchestra, I bought this on the premise that it would be a video of the concert performance. I am most unhappy that this is not the case. The scenery slideshow is pretty enough but like most people who will buy this disc based on what is on the cover, they will be disappointed.
