5.0 out of 5 stars Warmly Romantic Piano Concerto and Symphony., 16 July 2009
By Guy Mannering (Maidenhead, England) - See all my reviews
  
Amy Beach's is a warmly attractive late romantic piano concerto. It plumbs no great depths or heights but never fails to hold the attention especially in its lyrical opening movement. In the second movement scherzo the piano never once pauses for breath. It all sounds fiendishly difficult to play but this is a tremendous performance and very well-recorded. This is only the second piano concerto by a woman that I'm familiar with, the other being Clara Schumann's, but Beach's is the more impressive work. The symphony has the same warm, ardent appeal although Mrs Beach's thematic material, based on Irish folk tunes, doesn't quite linger in the mind. It seems that marriage got in the way of Amy's performing and composing, which is a pity as you get the impression that had she essayed further concertos and symphonies she might have gone from strength to strength. Highly recommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars Winning and accessible American music., 9 Jan 2004
By David B "Piano David" (GOUROCK, Renfrewshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
  
Another winner in Naxos's excellent American Classics series! This series from Naxos is bringing so much worthwhile and highly enjoyable music to light.
The playing and recording are very good, but the quality of the piano unfortunately does not quite match the superb quality of Alan Feinberg's pianism. (I have his wonderful trio of Argo CDs).
Very listenable, friendly music, and at Naxos prices, not to be omitted from your collection.
