2.Silk Road Journeys: When Strangers MeetSilk Road Journeys: When Strangers Meet
from Sony
Price: $14.99

Customer Review:
Since returning from a trip to China, I have become very interested in the music and the entire culture and history of the Far East. To an American, it seems like such an exotic and mysterious world. Given the formidable languages and the vastness of it all, I can only say that I can only hope to... more info

Customer Review:
Erbarme Dich for Cello and piano - it was Yo-Yo Ma's recording which inspired me to find a transcription for Cello and piano (Spartan UK). Ma's Bach is the most poetic, instinctive and analytical: I once heard him play all the 6 Suites at once concert from memory & my feet didn't touch the... more info

6.Lang Lang Live at Carnegie HallLang Lang Live at Carnegie Hall
from Deutsche Grammophon
Price: $18.98

Customer Review:
I attended this concert and an earlier one given by Lang Lang before he became a superstar, and the truth is both the fans and the critics are right. There is no question in my mind that Lang Lang can be one of the world's top pianists. It is a question of whether he can stay away from the excesses... more info

Customer Review:
First of all, you'll want to watch the movie before purchasing this, which is a good thing because the movie is also excellent! A good soundtrack mesmerizes the audience, filling them with the emotion of the scene before them. This soundtrack performs admirably, probably better than any I have ever... more info

Customer Review:
I will limit my comments here to the Tan Dun piece, as I don't care much for the music of Christopher Rouse.
Tan Dun's concerto for guitar and orchestra "Yi2" (1996) is one of the composer's more avant-garde statements, light years away from the world-music crossover gimmickry of the "Symphony... more info

9.The BanquetThe Banquet
by Tan Dun
Price: $18.98

Customer Review:
This is different than Tan Dun's other soundtracks-like "Hero" or "Crouching Tiger," in as far as hey relies less on orchestration and opts for a more mellow sounding track. There is a lot of very low key (but beautiful) piano music, at times punctuated by an orchestra, with some chorus (not... more info

from Sony
Price: $13.98

Customer Review:
I must say I enjoyed pretty much all of the songs on this album. "Victory" by Bond was the only thing they shouldn't have included, since it doesn't quite qualify as "classical" and wasn't what I would call a hit, anyway. True, it was instrumental, but real classical music is of a higher caliber.... more info

You can't have too many Sci-Fi albums. This is a good addition to anyone's collection. A good crosssection of SF music. It even has music from The Thief of Bagdad from the 30s(?)

EPICS is plagued by the muddled sound of TELARC's recordings. I noticed this trend beginning with TELARC's Hollywood's Greatest Hits, Vol. 2. The recoding seems flat. Also, this recording is a bit bombastic and just not representative of the original scores. The Suite from Gladiator is a good case... more info

Tan Dun's SYMPHONY 1997: Heaven -- Earth -- Mankind was written for the ceremonies on the reunification of Hong Kong with China. As it was meant for a great public spectacle, the work is of grand proportions. Besides orchestra (Hong Kong Philharmonic), there's children's choir, cello solo (Yo-Yo... more info

by Dun Tan
Price: $17.98

Customer Review:
For all of Tan Dun's prominent role as a populist crowd-pleaser who delights audiences with East meets West crossover, there has always been that other side where his expression has been more concentrated and his knowledge of the Modernist tradition more overt. This Ondine disc, released in 1998,... more info

This music is absolutely incredible, as is the recording. Get this immediately if you have an SACD player. Also, if you do have the SACD player, disregard the one star review...it's not Yo Yo Ma's fault the guy didn't notice the SACD sticker and the verbiage that says it requires a special player.

I have been working on the Haydn Sonata since I bought this DVD in 2005. I can actually play it as fast as Lang Lang does (as long as no one is around listening.) However, Lang Lang looks like he's having such a good time and it is so easy for him. Amazing.

In 1999 the BBC commissioned Chinese composer Tan Dun to write music for the television special tracking the New Year 2000 through all twenty-four time zones. 2000 TODAY is a one-hour piece based on this soundtrack. It's the most vacuous and inane music this uneven composer has ever written.more info
