5.0 out of 5 stars
Possibly the best-ever arrangements of Beatles' songs,
By Gontroppo "Music and Theology Lover" (Bathurst, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Here, There and Everywhere: Göran Söllscher plays The Beatles (Audio CD)
This may be the best-ever recording of arrangements of Beatles' songs. Other performers attempts at Beatles' songs are so often disasters. [I don't include George Martin's In My Life with these, though.]What makes this CD so successful is Sollscher's classical guitar expertise and the quality of the people writing the arrangements, which includes Toru Takemitsu, noted Japanese classical composer. Five of the arrangements are by Sollscher himself. Takemitsu's arrangement of the title track shows familiarity with the classical guitar medium, though it also features some exotic jazz chords. His other arrangements on the disk are Hey Jude, Michelle and Yesterday. Without a doubt, the most interesting arrangements on the disk are the six by Borje Sandquist. His stray furthest from the original tunes, but do this in a musically satisfying way.

A beautiful c.d. Unfortunately I lent it to someone and he doesn't appear to want to give it back.

The CD I have played most in the last four years,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Here, There and Everywhere: Göran Söllscher plays The Beatles (Audio CD)
Brilliant classical playing, clear production and the variety of fresh arrangements are almost 'new' Beatles tunes. Jump at the start of 'Bathroom...' Listen for the 'first' time to 'I Me Mine' I hope you get the chance to enjoy it. Sadly, Gollscher did not lodge the arrangements at the DGG session, and I have only been able to track one published score -'And I love Her' - so simple, beautiful - yet playable! (Anyone who knows of other scores from this CD, please email !) His other CDs - more classical -are worth a listen, particularly if Brits wish a change from Williams and Bream, oops. Did I mention 'Georgia on My Mind' on 'Cavatina'CD ?

More Great Music from Goran Sollscher...,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Here, There and Everywhere: Göran Söllscher plays The Beatles (Audio CD)
This is Sollscher's first Beatles album, and DG released another last October. From Yesterday to Penny Lane has several new Beatles solos as well as the title suite by Brouwer. There are a few with Per Arne Glorvigen on Bandoneon. I love this version of I Want to Hold Your Hand. I hadn't realized that the original was in a minor key (it really is) and this rendition is fantastic.
