Title: Nashville ROCKS ! ! ! !
Review: I am very, very happy with these discs. The tempi tend to be on the slow side for my taste, but only slightly. On the other hand, having lived with this set for a month or so now, and listened to it several times through, I feel like I know (and love) these pieces better than I ever have before, and understand how they relate to each other. My only experience with the Bachianas previously was the 1950's French version conducted by Villa-Lobos, and I don't think they were available as a complete set. Compared to those versions, the modern recording technique used here lets you hear all the different parts MUCH more clearly; there were entire parts, especially in the low strings and woodwinds, that I simply couldn't hear before. There were also several gems I hadn't heard before. I recommend this set wholeheartedly; for the price it is a huge value.
Is the review positive or negative?
