Customer Reviews of Rachmaninov - Piano Concertos Nos. 2 & 3 - A Naxos Musical Journey
Be warned, this is not a live recording BE WARNED! If you think this is a video recording of an orchestral performance, you will be sorely disappointed, as I was. It is merely a SOUNDTRACK of Rachmaninoff, with pretty travelogue visuals glued on. There are NO VISUALS OF THE ORCHESTRA AT ALL, no shots of musical craftsmanship, pianist fingers skimming over the keys, musician faces concentrating, cellist fingers sawing, lips pursed on the oboe, impassioned conductor guiding the orchestra through the moves to bring an art object into being, etc. -- nothing of that. It is merely a travelogue plus audio CD. You may as well play the CD in your car, while driving through your own visuals. For me this Naxos purchase was a total waste. <

Great video, POOR audio
The audio of this DVD is very poor. The performance itself is too slow. The pianist are not the best Rock 2/3 players. Far from William Wolfram. Obscure orchestras which is OK if they're good. The dynamic range is much less than my other recordings. I have compared various sections with the CDs from better recordings and pianists. I cannot listen to the Naxos dvd after knowing what it should sound like.

>The video is well done and offers beautiful images with good production values.

>I suspect Naxos took an obscure, existing, poor audio recording they had access to and put it to video.
<
>I would suggest one should research the artists and orchestras before buying any of these musical journeys. I won't buy another untill I know who the performers are.

>I watch mine while listening to an audio CD.
enjoyable music with video
i, too enjoy viewing the orchestra on my dvd concerts. i also enjoy the video scenes on the naxos musical journey dvds. the scenes of the homeland of the composer are beautiful and perhaps may have influnced the composer in his music.
