I was shopping for a sheer foundation for summer that would work with my oily skin. I have a little surface redness, but my main issue is large pores, shine, and oil. Going on, this foundation leaves a nice natural, satiny finish. It would be perfect if it stayed that way. However, by late afternoon I look in the mirror and oh my goodness! I am a complete oil slick! It's bad. I think this would work wonderful for dryer skinned girls but if you're as oily as I am, please stay away.
I am NC35 and wear the shade 34 which is a perfect color match. It is more neutral/beige toned than yellow. The foundation is sheer so I think it has a lot of forgiveness in color range.

This is one of the only foundations I've ever actually used up and repurchased; it's one of my all-time, old-faithful favorites. I even wore it for my wedding--after trying a slew of others for months, including Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, Chantecaille Future Skin, and MUFE's HD foundation, to name just a few. I came full circle after realizing there was nothing better suited for that occasion. (it was a spring sunset wedding) My makeup lasted all night and photographed well, so I have no regrets.
I can see this working for a variety of skin types, oily and combination skin as well as for dry skin. It has a very thin gel-like consistency similar to that of MAC Face and Body, but a bit thicker and more gel-ee like. (I prefer this one over Mac's f&b). Make no mistake, though, this is thin enough to be buildable, so it can offer light or medium coverage depending on application. In fact, if you want more coverage you'll probably have to build it up by applying at least two layers. Even so, I find that it has a smooth and natural finish. Some people have described it as a dewy; I find that it is neither matte nor dewy, but somewhere in between. As I mentioned before, MUFE F&B wears well and lasts through heat and humidity. As for packaging, the glass bottle container has vastly improved since it first came out, when it just had a screw top lid. Now it has a pump, which is more sanitary. The bottle is somewhat large (1,69 ounces) and not so great for travel. I remedied this by emptying an old plastic Maybelline mineral foundation bottle and filling it with F&B.
The color range for pale skin is much better than MAC F&B; there is a very light color, #38, which is only available on the MUFE or Sephora website. The next lightest shade available in Sephora stores is #20; I can get away with that one, but it's really a tad bit too dark for me. It's perfectly neutral, however,-more beige where #38 has pink undertones. I have both and mix them together in my hand to lighten the #20 shade while making the #38 a bit more neutral in tone (if that makes sense). Though I wish Sephora carried #38, the product wins points with me because a color I can wear is at least available. I imagine they offer a decent range for darker skin tones as well, but if you don't find what you need in the store, do check out either of the websites mentioned above. I recommend Sephora's because it explains the colors and the MUFE site does not, which makes color choice very confusing! :\ This retails for $40.00 for a 1.69 ounce bottle. (btw, MAC F&B is a better value at $32.00 for 4 ounces, so check it out if you're on a tighter budget and find the right shade; many people do swear by it)

There is so much to love about F&B. The color match is awesome (MAC NC50 - MUFE F&B 12), and the coverage is light to medium that covers beautifully. It gives just enough coverage to give you a flawless glow without looking cakey or unnatural at all. This foundation also applies and blends like a dream no matter how you apply it. The wear time for this foundation is also superb; I easily get 12 hours of wear out of this product, and I never feel as though it looks like I've worn it for 12 hours when I remove it at night. Another plus for me is that it has no crazy side effects either - it doesn't cause any breakouts (and I have sensitive skin and eczema) nor does it oxidize. I know that some may consider the cost high for the amount of product you get, but you need so little product to cover your entire face (I use 1 pump), I can't imagine anyone running out of it quickly even with everyday use. And bonus...It comes with a pump, so it's perfect for germaphobes like myself! =)
I also own MUFE's HD foundation (which I was infatuated with until I bought this one...F&B is my fave), and I must say that it is worth it to own both. Both give beautiful coverage, but HD is perfect for special occasions add flawlessness while F&B is awesome for everyday wear and casual events. I highly recommend it!

This foundation was great until it clogged my pores. I loved the glow it gave my skin and was even ok for my oily skin as long as I put a light powder over it and blotted a few times a day. So I do recommend this, but with sensitive skin just remember to sample first.

I love this foundation. It actually tricks me into thinking i have perfect skin. It doesn't look like there is foundation on your face at all. I get disappointed when i realize its all a lie after i wash it off. Its a water based gel formula with no emulsifiers. I found its best to apply with a buffing brush (i use Real Techniques expert face brush) and then blend with fingers. I use a primer underneath it (Korres pomegranate) and its lasts all day. It gives a nice glow to your face but depending on your skin type it can go past glow and go to oily. Luckily I'm dry so i don't have this problem, although i still blot once or twice due to the GA humidity. Id love to repurchase. Its truly one of a kind

I like this product a lot. It's light and very easy to blend. I use a primer underneath and the foundation stays on my face the whole day. Sometimes I blot in the late afternoon but it's usually unnecessary. It's definitely buildable and give you a very natural look as you don't have makeup on.
However, to me being "natural" comes with a downside to some of people looking for more coverage. This is a very sheer foundation, it doesn't have a lot of coverage. It will even out the skin tones but freckles and little imperfection will show through. If I want to more coverage, I have to use concerlers to cover up those spots. If you are looking for coverage, this foundation is not for you.
I like the fact that it gives you a very natural look including a bit of freckles ( I think it's very cute ).

I purchsed in Coffee (too ruddy) and Caramel (chalky) and have not been happy with either shade. I felt like it gave almost no coverage and I feel like you have to use too much per application. I did not find a color match either.
I like the glass bottle and the pump, and for someone who likes that shiny (dewy, they say?) finish and like little to no coverage for this amount of money, and who does not have oily skin (I had to powder by the time I got to work), then this is a good product. I like it in theory, because I was looking for waterproof, and if I found a color match then I would be more willing to work with it (I have been told to squirt out more than you need and work it in your palm for a few seconds, which will let the water evaporate and THEN apply, but that is so wasteful and time-consuming, and I can buy MAC Face and Body Foundation to do all that work at a fraction of the price).
As you can see, I was torn by the experience. I wanted to like it and all the hype got to me, but it just didn't work out for me. It is not a bad product, just not for me.

I'm combo/oily and have a lot of acne scars and textured skin so I need pretty good coverage,I would say it's light/medium coverage but I set it with MAC Studio Fix powder which is a combo made in heaven. I've tried pretty much every foundation out there except for high high end and they ALL looked cakey/unnatural. But this one looks SO natural, it's like I have nothing on but yet still have beautiful skin. Yes I still get oily with this but when I do it's more like a ''glowy'' shine instead of an oil slick. Anyway I I've been using this combo for a month, so I think I can truly say I've found my HG.

My favourite everyday foundation, when you first apply it it's very liquid-y, just rub it all over your face and it'll dry in a powder finish. I actually really think it's just powder and some water, but in a very good way cause when you apply it after the water evporates the powder grips well to your skin and dries so naturally, it's defiantly not for heavy duty coverage but it'll make any skin look like just good skin.
I would suggest you get some samples of a couple of color matches you think matches you best, the SA matched me to a very light color that just didn't look good, but thankfully I asked for a couple of samples of the next darker shade before I left the store just in case. After seeing how horrible the match I bought I tried the sample and it was a perfect match!
So be really careful, however it's a light coverage foundation so you do have a little more freedom when it comes to shades, it won't make the biggest difference.
I would say this is just an excellent excellent everyday foundation, I have this and the HD and they are all foundation I need in my life, I wear the HD when going out when I want a flawless face, and the face and body every morning for daytime. They're just amazing.

Letters to the Editor (July 7)
Johnny George, Lakeside City
Lake needs to be cleaned
The city council just approved more money for a larger floating dock at Lake Wichita. We just went through another bout with algae.
There are no fish to speak of, there is no water. But the city is interested in the lake.
OK , then now is the time to drain it and clean it out. It's a lot cheaper than dredging it. The state isn't going to restock a lake that's toxic. It's so shallow the water temperature is 88 degrees.
If we can spend millions of dollars on a sidewalk that brings people to this mud hole, then let's spend some on the lake.
George T. Weir, Jacksboro
Good, bad, and the ugly
The fourth week in June 2012 may very well go down in the history books as the week of the good, bad and the ugly in the world of politics.
At the beginning of the week we on the right were just counting the hours until we could finally say, "I told you so, I knew all along that the Obama heath care package was doomed the minute it hit the floor of the Supreme Court."
And those on the left were popping corn, and sitting in front of the TV just hoping for a miracle.
Some were switching the channels from the latest in the Eric Holder case, to the decision of the Supreme court, each side was dug in deep in their fox holes waiting for the word to attack, then the word came — Holder was found in contempt and the Supreme court narrowly passed Obamacare with the pen of justice John Roberts being the deciding factor.
Now it was time to exit the fox holes and go on the attack. To some Roberts was a traitor and to others he was a hero, but who really came away with the box of cigars?
All we know is this; we Americans now have a new tax and it will be the IRS that will have the power to enforce this new tax.
And we all know how ugly that can get!
This is only the beginning of the good, bad, and the ugly in politics — just stay tuned!

Red Sox coverage in today's Globe and some news from the Globe
Pitching coach Bob McClure does not find it that complicated to move Daniel Bard into the rotation. Nick Cafardo has the story.
The notebook has Josh Beckett among the early arrivals.
There's also a little news from the Globe for you. Bob Ryan will retire after the Olympics this summer but stay with the paper in a part-time role.
If you grew up reading the Globe, a large percentage of your sports knowledge probably came from Bob. He's a Hall of Famer in every way and the best NBA writer there ever was along with being an award-winning general columnist. Getting the oppprtunity to work with him has been an incredible honor.
Two quick stories:
When I was at UMass and the sports editor of the Massachusetts Daily Collegian, Bob came to the old Curry Hicks Cage to cover a Temple-UMass basketball game. For two days, I pestered sports information director Howie Davis to let me sit next to Bob on press row.
Howie finally gave in. I asked Bob a bunch of questions about how to get into the business that he graciously answered. Then I had one of our photographers sneak a photo of me sitting next to him. I still have it.
I tagged along with Bob to two college basketball games in Indianapolis last week while we were there for the Super Bowl. I can't tell how many times people stopped and asked Bob for an autograph or to pose for a photo. He was so nice to everybody and it was not an act. He loves what he does and he loves sports.
It's a big loss for the Globe but it's great that Bob gets to go out on top and enjoy himself. Here's hoping he'll come hang out at Fenway more than a few nights this season.

My wife and I attended a superb concert this evening by the Zagreb Saxophone Quartet, with guest appearances by BYU's Ray Smith and the eminent classical saxophonist Eugene Rousseau. At the end, all of them played together in a saxophone sextet. It was wonderful.
The fare ranged from Haydn and Beethoven through Hoagy Carmichael and George Gershwin to Igor Kuljeric, Cole Porter, Bosko Petrovic, and Jerome Kern.
Among those in the relatively small audience were President Dieter Uchtdorf and his wife, Harriet, who are jazz fans. I was very pleased to see them there.

The Charles T. Myers course is especially ideal for the inexperienced, but capable of providing challenges if you go in a mixed-level group. Sunset Hills offers a similarly nuanced but non-intimidating experience. Renaissance Park makes an especially verdant selection, featuring a professionally designed landscape stuffed to the brim with flora, expansive bentgrass greens, and rich clusters of foliage. With a rental cart shuttling you from hole to hole, you'll keep your legs fresh enough to compete in a youth soccer game after playing 18 holes.

Once again, Foothill College has stepped up and is providing free use of their facility on Saturday and Sunday November 8th and 9th this year. The event is again free and ready for registration at the following URL:
I'll be speaking on LINQ of course but I'll also be showing some Office development and Open XML as well. There were 800 people registered last year and there is a huge breath of technology that it covers, not just Microsoft or .NET technologies, so it's a great way to get exposure to a lot of cool stuff. We are fortunate to live in the Bay Area where there is a lot of cool technology and great speakers. This is also your chance to share your knowledge with other developers. Registration is FREE and anyone can submit talks so if you think you have someting interesting to teach people, go for it!
Hope to see you there!

Good as expected, order your actual size. Good fit, coverage and material weight. Color panels are separate pieces. Wear and durability are good.
Speedo, quality as expected
Speedo is the standard for me. I conscider them all true to size with only slight variation between the different styles. This style has good fit and coverage. The color panels are sepatrate pieces of fabric. I wear them under board shorts and in the pool. I have not seen any fading or excessive wear.
Nice suit
Colo swimmer
from Denver,CO
on 9/6/2012
I returned a suit I ordered 1 size up as other reviews stated this suit runs small. I found the opposite true and was unfortunately not able to get my original color, charcoal, before it sold out. Black suit fits great and stays in place during my workouts. Swim 3-4 times a week and seems to be holding up well! Quick shipment as usual by swimoutlet and at a great price, as well as easy exchange no questions asked!
Speedo 3' Brief
from Gates, NC
on 9/3/2012
Size was much better than the ones I returned, that the size was way off. Purchased the Speedo brand this time and found that the quality and size was 99% better than the brand before. Very good fit. The service was great and had no problem in returning the other suit.
Very nice, well made suit.

Just got the suit and love the cut and color. It sits very low on the hips just over your butt crack. I wear a 32 and ordered a 34 thank god it just fits! so i would say order one size up due to the cut of the suit. Smaller then i thought on the sides, but I do really like it..
good job

fits well, comfortable, nice design. looks a bit rough before put on, too many pieces joined but there's probably no other way to have such combination of colors .
Great Suit

Tiger stumbled a bit on this second day of the tournament, shooting a six-over par seventy-eight The card is autographed in Woods' very early format in 9+/10 pencil. His pairing partner signs as well. Included is a letter of provenance from the banquet manager of the country club, who found the scorecard abandoned in the media room after the tournament was over. An exceedingly rare pre-professional relic from the man who trails only the great Sam Snead in PGA tournament victories. Letter of provenance from original owner. Pre-certified by PSA/DNA.

The first is this canard that we have to balance the budget.
It's a canard--cover for trying to prevent black and brown people from voting.
The claim that "tenure" is a guarantee of lifetime employment is a canard.
before 1850, from French canard "a hoax," literally "a duck" (from Old French quanart, probably echoic of a duck's quack); said by Littré to be from the phrase vendre un canard à moitié "to half-sell a duck," thus, from some long-forgotten joke, "to cheat."

AIDS will cross a 30-year mark in the United States tomorrow with the CDC warning against any false sense of safety. Its director says most infections are among those under 30, "who may not fully understand the health threat."
(WOMENSENEWS)--As we mark the 30th anniversary of the first U.S. published reports of AIDS this weekend, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns against complacency in the face of a scourge that afflicts over a million Americans.
"Thirty years later, the sense of crisis has waned, but our resolve to end the epidemic simply cannot," the CDC's director, Dr. Tom Frieden, said in a June 2 press statement.
Most infections are now among people under 30, Frieden says, describing that group as "a new generation that has never known a time without effective HIV treatments and who may not fully understand the significant health threat HIV poses."
Men who have sex with other men are disproportionately affected--they're 2 percent of the population, according to the CDC, but more than half of all new infections in the U.S.
The days of this being a man's disease, however, are long gone and women are increasingly at risk.
For black women, the danger is pronounced, with rates of transmission nearly 15 times as high as that of white women, and nearly four times that of Hispanic women, according to the governmental health authority.
The disease has claimed 500,000 American lives and millions worldwide, according to the CDC.

Everything happens for a reason.
I've seen some things, I've been a few places. I have a pretty firm grasp on the world I live in, and my place in it. I'm looking for someone to share the beautiful things in life with, someone who appreciates simplicity and extravagance. I like to try new things on a whim, and try to live in the moment as much as possible. Here's where I list some character buzz words that I consider myself to be: passionate, spunky, forgetful, genuine, naivety, optimistic, intellectual, inquisitive, active, lazy (yes I am both), artistic, independent, capable, adorable, sarcastic, free spirited, animated, impulsive, adventurous, daring, self-reliant, extroverted, introspective, driven, affectionate, talented, formidable, sweet, communicative, understanding, aggressive, candid, reliable, ambitious, cuddly, hilarious (if I do say so myself), impressionable, sociable, flexible, supportive, a work-in-progress. I identify more with being cute than sexy, but I have my moments. I enjoy a challenge. I get myself into some sticky situations with my spontaneous nature, but always manage to come out on top, and a better person for having done it. I think every experience, good or bad, is a chance to learn something about yourself, and become a better person. I have a full back tattoo inspired by that sentiment. I am constantly changing, improving, growing, and learning. I feel deeply. I typically shower my significant other with love and generosity. I have a very good head on my shoulders when it comes to relationships, and I am looking for a man, not a boy. I would rather work through any issues or difficulties by talking things through, than by throwing my hands in the air and walking away. I'm in it for the long haul. I am hoping to find someone who challenges me. Who makes me think big and inspires me to be a better person. I want someone to run off into the sunset with on a whim. Who will nurture and inform my adventurous side. I want to be with someone who is just as inquisitive as me and always strives to attain more knowledge. I don't want someone who treats me like a princess. I understand that chivalry is not dead, but I like to get the door for my man every once in a while too... I appreciate the little things, and want someone in my life who notices them too. I would like to be with someone who is secure with themselves. I find that very attractive. They say confidence is sexy for a reason. I want someone who can expose me to new experiences and open me up to new ways of thinking. I am looking for a serious relationship, so if you're looking for a hook up, you've come to the wrong place. Here is a list of traits I would like my partner to have: See above list. What else can you bring to the table? I am easy to talk to, and I am a good listener. If you like what you've read, send me an email. Winks are confusing. If you are on the fence, let me show you why you should take a chance on me. I am open and honest. Pleasant searching!

The Beehive, South End, BCA, the beach - any beach, any time of year. Kangamangus Highway, Newport, RI, Meredith, NH, I can make any place a great spot.
A few of my favorite things: Completing a challenging climb. Trees. Finding a great new Pandora station. Road trips. Water. Random adventures. Musical interests vary from The Avett Brothers and Punch Bothers to Sarah Bareillis, or Deadmau5.
I have lots of very random interests: theatre, singing, museums, etymology, dramaturgy, dancing, people watching, architecture, coloring, crossword puzzles, swimming, nature, and more. Sometimes they stick for a minute, sometimes years.
The last thing I read was a play, guaranteed. I'm more into Podcasts these days, I can listen to them while I'm driving, and I drive a lot. My faves are Invisibilia and Radio Lab. I'm looking for more, what are some of yours?

Defense Positioning in the Offensive Zone
I believe that puck support in the offensive zone has brought many second chances and more puck control. So my question is why cant the Defense race to the blue line and get set up before the break-out starts?
And there position on the offensive zone blue line never follows the play from side to side. Or right to left. In other words a defensive player say left defense should play from his boards to the opposite far post when looking into the zone so the defense overlaps?? It a lot easier to hold the puck in the zone that way.

Bryce Henry is a Multimedia Journalist and the Weekend Meteorologist for KBJR.
Bryce grew up in Belleville, IL, right across the river from St. Louis, MO but he was brought to the Northland in his pursuit of education. He attended Northland College in Ashland, WI where he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Broadcast Meteorology with minors in physics and geology. While there, he also crafted his camera skills as the campus photographer and videographer for the marketing and communications department during all four of his years as an undergraduate. He says his storytelling and writing skills stem from the wide exposure to nature and environmental writers who made an impact at the college.
After earning his degree, Bryce pursued meteorology at WeatherEye Radio in St. Paul, MN. That position allowed him to improve his forecasting skills and work on his presentation while forecasting and voicing for up to 450 different radio stations each day!
Bryce says the biggest contribution to his skills in connecting with people and telling stories came from a time that he decided to hitchhike from San Francisco to St. Louis just to see if he could. He says that trip gave him great faith in humanity and pushed him to associate with people he wouldn't otherwise have known. He will also tell you that trip is an incredible story all on it's own and it defined for him that every person has a story to tell.
Bryce started at KBJR as a morning Multi-Media Journalist and quickly transitioned to Producer for the morning show. After a short time, his skill for storytelling pushed him into a full Multi-Media Journalist position. As he was consistently filling in as a meteorologist, Bryce eventually picked up the position of Weekend Meteorologist in June 2014.
Besides storytelling and the weather, Bryce loves to grow his own food, hike on the trails throughout the Northland, and sing and play a variety of instruments. He is an avid runner and outdoor enthusiast. He ran cross-country all through high school and college and in the summertime, you may catch him running barefoot on the trails in Lester Park.
You may know him best for when he was the first to get the word out about the ice caves, or the time he flew in an F-16, or you may have seen him actually running with camera and tripod in hand to capture breaking news .

The cold three-axes spectrometer PANDA spectrometer is located in the experimental hall of the FRMII at the SR2 beam-tube. By neutron guide elements in the beam tube, a short source to monochromator distance and the double-focusing monochromator and analyzer, high flux is achieved and the instrument is further optimized for low background.
In addition to standard cold TAS mode, the achievable energy transfer overlaps with thermal three-axes spectrometers, a high Q-resolution setup as well as a polarized setup is available and an up-to-date sample environment offers high magnetic fields and low temperatures.
The performed experiments typically include the investigation of spin waves and crystal field excitations, phonons, excitations in low-dimensional systems as well as quasi-elastic scattering and diffraction with energy analysis. The obtained results give often decisive input for the research of unconventional superconductivity, strongly correlated electron systems, magnetically frustrated and magnetism in low-dimensional systems, but also for lattice dynamics and material science.

Remember the good old days when the China's policy makers could set their economic targets while blithely ignoring reality? Their growth targets were more a vague and distant road sign to be waved at as the economy sped by.
In the heady year of 2007, the economy powered past the 8% growth target by 6.2 percentage points, clocking growth of 14.2%. That was after 12.7% growth the year before – some 4.7 percentage points over what was merrily described as a target (wink, wink, nod, nod). As recently as 2010, growth was an impressive 10.5%, leaving the target 2.5 percentage points in the dust behind. Read More »

Travel The World With Me?
Hello. I'm a laid back girl that loves to travel. I moved to Boston a year ago for work. I have adapted and have to say I love this city. I'm very driven and love to constantly learn new things. I love being outdoors especially on the water, I'm a Florida girl so i love the beach. I'm Independent and do well on my own, but i think its time i let a man into my life. My friends would say that I'm mature for my age. My best friends are in their 30's if that gives you some idea. I don't work a regular Mon- Fri 9-5 job. My weekends usually fall during the week which has made dating a little difficult. I love to explore, go to concerts, go to live sporting events (not a huge fan of watching them on t.v) its more about the atmosphere. I'm planning a trip to Greece in September which I'm really excited for, it has been in my top 3 for some time. I've been all over the Caribbean (mostly on cruises), Italy, Germany, Czech and Austria. I have a lot more places planned, a whole lot of the world to see. I'm looking for a man who is career-oriented and is out of the partying stage. A man who is driven and adventurous. A good sense of humor is always a plus as well. I am also out of town often, so he has to be secure. I need a man who is honest and doesn't play games. I promise I wont play games with you. Dating in Boston is difficult enough, we can leave the games out of it. I'm going to keep it brief so we can have things to talk about, so if you would like to know anything else feel free to send me a message. I look forward to hearing from you.

Few Alibis Offered at Alibi Breakfast
A longstanding Preakness tradition is the Alibi Breakfast, held at Pimlico Race Course two days before the Preakness Stakes (gr. I). It gives Baltimore and Maryland dignitaries and media outlets a chance to meet some of the players for the second jewel in the Triple Crown, and the trainers a chance to offer their "alibi" before the race.
Animal Kingdom won last year's Derby and was second in the Preakness.

I too pulled the headrests from the rear seats..using more space for a Rollator since I am handicapped.
I'm 75, a woman who still dreams of my days with sports cars back in the day when they had such exciting designs like the BirdCage Maseratti's, etc. I followed the Grand Prix. I may be handicapped but I sure love this Yellow bomb. I
have six speed automatic and like it a lot.
Recent Rally out of Benton AR Landers dealership (s'cuze, me..the Studio...we had 22 500's in line and had a ball.
Amazed at the number of "senior drivers". I could do with fewer of the fancy electronic features. Better they put side moldings on standard. Vulnerable doors without them.
I live in an area with curvy and hilly roads. Fun Fun Fun!

1865 Indian Cent, PR67 Red and Brown Cameo1865 1C PR67 Red and Brown Cameo NGC. The estimated mintage of the proof 1865 Indian cent is only 500 pieces, but it is a safe bet that few survive at the level of this Superb Gem coin. The color is predominantly almond-gold, with only slight daubs of deeper medium-brown. Splendid cameo contrast is set up by the high points, which are more deeply toned on the reverse than the obverse, against the intensely reflective fields on both sides. The strike is impeccable, and there are no signs of contact visible on either side. This piece is the only PR67 certified at either NGC or PCGS, regardless of color or contrast (10/10). A memorable coin for the finest collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fine Tchaikovsky, but Rachmaninov misses the mark a bit.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
If you translate speed as 'firestorm' and 'rollercoaster ride' etc, as has been previously noted, and if you look for mainly rollercoasters and firestorms in the music of Rachmaninov, then
you will likely very much enjoy this cd. If, however, you require an expression of the Rachmaninov sensibility that can also be found in his other works, then it is my opinion that this interpretation is lacking in that area. Argerich does very well for herself and the music in the slower passages of this concerto, expressing the insight to Rachmaninov that she seems to lose sight of in the bravura passages. It also seems to me that she creates a bit of a muddle when she gives equal balance to her left hand where, in my opinion, the right hand should take precedence. This occassional lack of balance does not at all seem to be a technical error, but rather an interpretive one which results in the loss of sensibility and emotional continuity throughout the piece. Well, in any case, it is gratifying to see some of the reviewers take so much enjoyment in this recording. My only wish is that, in their enthusiasm for Ms Argerich' interpretation of the R3, they would not seem to exclude other interpretations that take a different perspective on the music(specifically the fine Ashkenazy). As to the Tchaikovsky: Although the engineering is lacking in self evident
ways, and with the exception a hard to ignore klunker in
the opening sequence of the concerto, Argerich does fine work
and shows the panache needed in this Tchaikovsky showpiece.

Craig Matteson (Saline, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
Some complain about the recording balances on this disk. I suppose they have a point. It is a live recording and sometimes you have to take what you can get. At times things do sound a bit strange, but focus on the playing instead and you should be able to get over the recording issues in a hurry. This is exciting playing.
If you compare these versions to, say, Horowitz's recordings of these pieces (and I think that is the league Argerich is playing in), you will find a different kind of virtuosity. To me Horowitz at his peak still has greater control and especially more power, but it is just a matter of degree.
Argerich has a certain kind of mad excitement in these performances that make them her own. She has fabulous technical control that feels like it is always on the edge of falling off the track, but she never does. Just breathtaking!
These are two of the great piano concertos and Argerich is one of the great pianists. These performances are memorable, maybe recorded less than perfectly, but still recordings you will want to have in your collection. I have listened to this disk many times and still find it exhilarating.
5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Recordings,
David A. Wend (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
This recording of the Third Piano Concerto of Rachmaninoff was touted as "the ultimate Rachmaninoff 3rd." Actually, Martha Argerich did not want this performance released because of the mistakes she had made. One would have to be a pianist of Ms. Argerich's caliber to find her mistakes. The passion and brilliance she brings to this performance far outweighs any errors, and this is a performance that has come to be regarded as a standard against which to compare new recording. Riccardo Chailly and the RSO Berlin provide magnificent support.
The Tchaikovsky First is played with similar brilliance and energy. I also have Ms. Argerich's earlier recording of this concerto from the 1960s (on DG) and would say that this performance is broader and less driven than the former. Ms. Argerich indeed likes to push the orchestra's tempo but I think she holds back a bit here and is more relaxed. She gets great support from Kirill Kondrashin and the Bayerischen Rundfunks players.
As has been pointed out, these are live recordings and have been digitally remastered, but I found the sound quality to be excellent. The audience is quiet during the performances; there is applause at the end of each concerto.
4.0 out of 5 stars wild and exciting (perhaps too so),
C Drummond (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
These are very interesting recordings of two of the great Romantic piano concertos. They are both very fast recordings (though contrary to the editorial review, not as fast as Horowitz's seminal recordings with either Reiner or Barbirolli). Martha Argerich plays like a woman possessed which at times appears lacking in sensitivity or control. For instance, the chordal cadenza of the 1st movement of the Rachmaninoff sounds clumsy, and the flashy pianistic climax of the finale of the Tchaikovsky feels overly rushed. However, there are times, especially in the finale of the Rachmaninoff and the intermezzo of the Tchaikovsky, during which her style works wonderfully and shows unparalleled virtuosity. Overall the recordings are very satisfying, despite occasional mistakes and lapses in timing between the piano and orchestra. However, I have mentioned Vladimir Horowitz and I simply cannot recommend these recordings above his performances with Reiner (Rachmaninoff) and Toscanini (Tchaikovsky in the legendary War Bond concert). As an addition to those recordings though, this CD is a fine purchase.
4.0 out of 5 stars Dynamic and Explosive - a different take,
B. T. Byrd - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
John Grabowski's comments above really struck a chord with me. Upon first hearing this CD, my first reaction was "what the hell did Argerich do to the beauty of Rachmaninoff's concerto! Where's the soul!?" My favorite part of the first movement is the "series of rising variants on the theme, tension building to a great big fortissimo tutti" that John mentions above - each new chord relieving yet building upon the stress of the chord before it in an almost tragic struggle to resolve... none of this is apparent in Argerich's recording. I'd always used the Horowitz/Reiner recording as a basis for comparison to any copy of the Rach 3 - not as a "standard" but as a guide for how it should be done. . . it's all there - the tension, the beauty, and the power. Argerich's version shocked me, as I'm sure it shocked John. But for true reference, I went back to the master himself - a Naxos copy of Rachmaninoff playing the concerto himself in 1939. None of that tension is there! It's exactly the same as Argerich's apparent bastardization. This epiphany gave me a new respect for this particular recording, as it stays true to Rachmaninoff's vision.
Though I do prefer the emotive sound and almost painful beauty of the Horowitz/Reiner version, I appreciate having this modern classic as an alternative that (at least seems to) stay true to the original spirit of the concerto. It's rushed - it's less heroic - it's not as emotive or (IMHO) beautiful - but inaccurate? That it is not. Shy of five stars for the fact that the recording's not exactly sterling. . . but hey, it was live!
4.0 out of 5 stars Over the Top,
Robert J. Sullivan Jr. "Joe Sullivan" (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
Argerich certainly leaves nothing on the table here. Even after reading numerous reviews of these performances, I was not prepared for the velocity and attack that hit me. Now, after several hearings, I feel I can record some observations of these amazing live documents.
First, it *is* possible to play the Rachmaninoff 3rd too fast. I never thought I would hear a performance that achieved this, but I think Argerich goes beyond even the ideal fast tempo, so that the movement (alla breve) loses character, suffering mostly in the weight of the chords and the decorative notes. My reference has been the Wild/Horenstein recording: Wild's tempi are faster than most, but his greatest achievement is in the power with which he builds to climax. This is particularly telling in the shorter cadenza (also played by Argerich), where he creates tremendous tension without resorting to stunts (i.e., playing as rapidly as possible without regard to musicality).
To Argerich's credit, I doubt that Wild or even Horowitz could whip through octaves and scales at such speed. So the experience is unique, even if you feel like you are sitting under the bigtop.
The Argerich approach works much better in the Tchaikovsky, where the naturally impetuous music caters to her flights. The scherzo in the second movement passes in a shower of sparks! For me, this recording is much more competitive than the Rachmaninoff as a legitimate realization. Van Cliburn is much more stylish and regal with the same conductor, but she makes his tempos sound pokey. The listener must decide.
For connoisseurs of utmost virtuosity, speedfreaks, et al., this is definitely recommended. Interesting that Bryce Morrison's liner notes call her a tigress --- the animal metaphor can be extended to her technique (superhuman or not human) and ultimately, to her lack of sympathy for the music.
3.0 out of 5 stars "The Ultimate Rachmaninoff 3rd"? Far from it,
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
This is one overhyped CD. Yes, Lady Martha plays like all the blazes, yes, you can almost hear the sonic booms behind her, and yes, she undoubtedly had about eighty espressos before she went out on stage. Yes, the orchestra struggles to keep up with her. Yes, it's electrifying. But the concerto isn't just about being electrifying. The opening theme, for example, is a mournful hymn of longing and nostalgia that in Argerich's hands is simply *fast.* See Spot. See Spot Run. See Spot Run Fast. But there's more to the "Rach 3" than this approach.
At the speeds at which she plays her tone tends to range from harsh to not quite so harsh. And her favorite expressive device seems to be rubato, which she can overuse. First movement, after exposition, the main theme comes back, followed by choppy playful piano part; then comes a series of rising variants on the theme, tension building to a great big fortissimo tutti. In those rising variants (sorry, I don't have a score in front of me so I can't give bar numbers) she varies and stretches the rubato almost to the point of pretension, to my ears. But whether it's "pretentious" or not, I've heard other pianists do so much more expressively with this section, altering the coloration of the notes, the pedaling, etc. But at the speed she is playing there's not much she apparently can do besides the push-pull rubato. It's dramatic and exciting the first time, but after repeated listenings it gets a little limiting. (Please note in reference to the reviewer above who said he listened to Rachmaninoff's own recording: I didn't say she does nothing here, just what she does is pretentious and frankly cliched.)
This performance is also poorly recorded (not her fault, of course), with a recessed and often muffled orchestra. There are key sections where the brass cannot be heard.
The Tchaikovksy is better-recorded and a little less extreme. It's a pleasurable concerto to listen to once in a while, but I've never been a full-time fan of this work. Martha's is as good as recording as anyone's but there are others, and the accompaniment is a little rough. A nice filler, but not a must-have.
All-in-all, this recording actually is worth owning, especially if you're a fan of virtuoso piano playing. But it's hardly the last word in the Rach 3, but its reputation is such that I fear many people, always looking for (and believing the hype about) "ultimate" recordings, will stop searching after acquiring this one, because after all the sticker on the shrink wrap says it's "The Ultimate Rachmaninoff 3rd," so it is, right? Nope. Worth hearing, definitely. Even worth owning perhaps (despite the warts outlined above, I still keep my copy), but there's still so much in this music that Argerich and company don't bring out. Besides, the Third is too rich a piece for any one version to be called "The Ultimate." Have a listen. There's a lot to enjoy. But beware the hype.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great Rach 3, the Tchaikovsky is a wild bonus,
Alexander Leach (Shipley, West Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
By general agreement the finest uncut recording of the Rachmaninov Third Concerto in modern sound is Martha Argerich's, recorded at a Berlin concert in 1982.
This is also available as part of an inexpensive 2 CD set as part of Philips' Great Pianists of the 20th Century series, and is shortly to be reissued at medium price in Philips 50th Anniversary series.
Most recordings of the Third Concerto that were made before the mid-1960s observed small cuts in the second and third movements. These include fine versions by Vladimir Horowitz on BMG/RCA from 1951, Earl Wild on Chandos, and Byron Janis in 1957 on BMG/RCA or 1963 on Mercury (the 1957 recording is preferable), but not Vladimir Ashkenazy's beautifully played Decca recording, also from 1963, which is complete.
Apart from his 1951 recording, Vladimir Horowitz (who was associated with this concerto for over 50 years) made two other commercial recordings, in 1930 and 1978, although the latter interpretation is better heard on a Deutsche Grammophon VHS video of a New York Philharmonic concert.

P. Rah "prahcello" (Sion, Switzerland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pno Ctos 1/3 (Audio CD)
Martha Argerich is an artist (in the full sense of the word) for whom I have the highest respect, for she is known as an extremely modest woman who doesn't consider herself a virtuoso (it must be the understatement of the century!), and shies away from solo glory, preferring chamber music more. I really admire this innocent modesty of this person, although I do feel that she should make more solo appearances as well as chamber music ones. Anyway, I'll now say a few things about this CD.It is a glorious disc, full stop.She has all the essences of what a virtuoso should be (and more), yet also armed with the gift of listening to other players (the qualities of a chamber musician). The Rakhmaninov is played with dashing brilliance. As the booklet note says, Argerich keeps her horsepower in reserve, until the last movement, so for the first two movements, one gets a reading of sensitivity, not just sheer brilliance. In the finale, however, all hell breaks loose. Argerich rips through the keyboard easily, and, in my opinion the most brilliant performance comes at the coda of the last movement. She makes it sound like a battle about to be won, with terrifying effect. She plays the fiendishly difficult final octaves with alarming ease and triumphs gloriously. Credit must go to the orchestra and Chailly as well. They provide a cushion of accompaniment, no matter how hard she is to follow. This is a communicative performance on both parts. This is one of the very few recordings which can be deemed great, if not the best (as judged on BBC Music Magazine in 1998). The Tchaikovsky is also brilliant. She makes the often cliched first movement sound fresh, and is on top form, although the cadenza was somewhat messy. The slow movement is a floating performance, with Argerich's famous articulation clarly audible. Last movement is played with, as in the Rakhmaninov, a sense of communication, playing WITH the orchestra rather than against, as this movement is so often played. Kondrashin, the great Russian maestro, fully captures the Russian idiom of this work. I personally recommend the DG version of the Tchaikovsky with Claudio Abbado and Berlin Philharmonic, as it holds together in the more cohesive way than this performance, but as this is a live recording, one has expect the whole package, warts and all. It is a most highly enjoyable disc, to which I find myself applauding with the audience on the CD at the end everytime I listen to it. Both concertos highly recommended, with the Rakhmaninov emerging as the stronger winner. This is what music-making is all about: Soloist's virtuosity, the communion between orchestra and conductor, orchestra and soloist and joie de vivre in the playing.
