4.0 out of 5 stars 'My first classical guitar album', 28 Jun 2008
By Mart Music (Essex, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      

This Classic FM 2CD collection of classical guitar music was released at the same time as the Classic FM `Full Works' series of 50 separate CDs, so was slightly upstaged and pushed to the back of the class.

However, it's Classic FM's first serious venture into the area of classical guitar music and with this in mind I think it's a well considered offering. It's not the `Ultimate' of course as the title claims - even a large collection of John Williams, Julian Bream and Andres Segovia wouldn't scratch the surface - but it does score well I think for its success at displaying the versatility of the instrument.

Obvious inclusions are Stanley Myers' `Cavatina' (made famous by the film The Deerhunter) but more interesting perhaps are the transcriptions, from piano, of pieces such as Einaudi's `Le Onde' and Satie's `Gymnopedie No. 3' which I think really show off the ability of the instrument to play a wide range of musical styles.

The recordings are good, as is usual of Classic FM products, and the range of guitarists - John Williams is of course included, but many lesser known players are also on offer - provides a variety of playing techniques.

While certainly not the `Ultimate', this is a highly recommended and entertaining collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars A GREAT GUITAR COMPILATION, 4 Aug 2008
By Hathor 38 (Hampshire, UK) - See all my reviews
As the previous reviewer said, this is a great introduction to the world of classical guitar music. As usual with ClassicFM Cd's, the quality of the music on offer is superb, with a few well known pieces that have been arranged for the guitar; like Elgar's Nimrod etc.. As said before, if your new to this style, or you want something to just relax to, then you can't go wrong with this.
