Review title: Consummate woodwind playing
Product review: Wow! Having played band arrangements (not these arrangements) of some of these overtures, I can't believe the accuracy and elan of the playing on this album. The speed of some of the performances is "death defying."This album clearly shows why after Mozart's death, the competition was between Beethoven and Rossini. What soaring melodies. What excitement.If you play any of the following instruments, you need to listen to this album just to make sure you know how your instrument should sound when played well: flute, piccolo, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, and horn. There's a section where the horns sound like trombones (not unpleasant). And no, I'm not refering to the old joke about how to make a trombone sound like a horn: Stick your hand in the bell and blow wrong notes.This album is a truly entertaining example of harmoniemusik, the wind-band music popular from approximately 1775 to 1825.
