Format:Audio CD
DG's new collection, 111 Years of Deutsche Grammophon (hereafter, the "red box") is the ultimate classical music grab bag, a 55-disc assortment of the overfamiliar, the well-known, the underplayed, and the fairly obscure (Michael Praetorius, anyone?). I'd assumed that the six-disc "111 Classic Tracks" collection (hereafter, the "yellow box") was merely a two-track-per-disc rerun of the red box, but it turns out to be a more interesting anthology than that.

The yellow box, a slipcased, bookhinged six-disc tray in a simple cardboard folder, has the usual maddening randomness of this kind of era-spanning CD anthology: here the tracks are arranged alphabetically by performer, resulting in a jarring, discontinuous, "jump cut" from one musical era, genre, and ensemble to another, although I got a kick out of Bizet's "Les Toreadors" leading into Morton Gould's "Boogie Woogie Etude." Of the 111 tracks, only forty are repeated from the red box (single-movement excerpts from longer works, mostly), but 71 tracks, culled from DG's archives, are new for the yellow box. Since any piece of music you haven't heard yet is new music, I was delighted to discover such lovely "new" pieces as the ethereal "Danza del trigo" from Ginastera's "Estancia" (Gustavo Dudamel and his Venezuelan youth orchestra) and the bluesy Sephardic lullaby, "Nani" from Osvaldo Golijov's "Ayre" (sung by Dawn Upshaw, backed by, I kid you not, the Andalucian Dogs). Other highlights of the collection include Cecilia Bartoli singing "Voi che sapete"; Kathleen Battle singing the "Pie Jesu" from Faure's Requiem; Enrico Caruso singing a Meyerbeer aria over a barely audible orchestra in 1907; a 1945 recording of Jascha Heifetz and Emanuel Bay turning "It Ain't Necessarily So" into a three minute melodrama; Luciano Pavarotti singing "Una furtiva lagrima"; performances by guitarists Andres Segovia, Goran Sollscher, and Narciso Yepes; and a tinny but exciting 1927 recording of Richard Strauss conducting the Berlin Staatskapelle in Mozart's G minor symphony (final movement).

Yellow box purchasers will also get to hear performances by violinists Pinchas Zukerman, Daniel Hope, Shlomo Mintz, Gidon Kremer, Nathan Milstein, and Itzhak Perlman; pianists Pierre-Laurent Aimard, Rafal Blechacz, Friedrich Gulda, Geza Anda, Shura Cherkassky, and Mikhail Pletnev; the Hagen, Melos, LaSalle and Emerson string quartets (playing, respectively, movements by Mozart, Debussy, Mendelssohn, and Bartok); conductors Christian Thielemann, Hans Rosbaud, Evgeny Mravinsky, and Neeme Jarvi; and singers Cheryl Studer, Elina Garanca, Teresa Berganza, Christa Ludwig, Hans Hotter, and Grace Bumbry.

If it was Bach and Beethoven's music that dominated the red box, the yellow box belongs to Mozart and Beethoven, with Bach running a close third. "111 Classic Tracks" is a box of fine musical chocolates, an ear-tickling sampler of all the DG music you've missed. You'll want to enjoy most of it in full.

6 CDs of 111 choice titbits from top performers, arranged alphabetically by artist/conductor across the collection (with perhaps a hint of too much teutonic love of order). But come on, feel the passion behind that order with stunning pieces from Abbado to Zimerman, via Argerich, Bartoli, Caruso, Dudamel, Hahn, Heifetz, Netrebko, Pavarotti, Pires, Pollini, Rostropovich, Terfel, Yepes and others of equal eminence. This collection is ideal for those who prefer a varied menu of short pieces, and it gives the listener the opportunity of tasting a wide selection of composers and artists to perhaps discover a new area of music to explore and enjoy. The only risk is that, having enjoyed this so much, you may be tempted to splash out on the more expensive set of 55 discs DG have issued at the same time - but even that looks a bargain in terms of cost per disc. A feast of nearly 7 hours of delicious music for about the price of one CD. I think you deserve it, don't you?

the title of this limited edition is misleading, '111 Tracks'. It should be called '111 Artists'. This 6 disc compilation is not so much about tracks or composition, as opposed to the artists that have performed said pieces. Starting with Abbado and finishing with Zimerman, in between are another 109 classical artists who have at one time or another been contracted to DG. So what we have is not another classical hits compilation, but a thoughful compilation of various classical compositions performed by various DG artists. The composers take a backseat. Unless, youre classically learned, you may not even recognise most lf the tracks. What you can appreciate is the technical and musical skill of the performer. An elite bunch as DGs reputation would suggest. So a hit and miss affair, because you have to appreciate whats on offer as opposed to buying yet another hits compilation, which have been done to death, but a worthy one nonetheless. And like their higher end 55 disc compilation, excellent value for money. Enjoy.
