The first two years of this century were an exciting time for Sibelius: his reputation as a composer was growing fast, and he'd begun to travel widely, taking in Paris, Germany and Italy, where he started sketching a tone poem on the life of Don Juan.

"Sibelius' most popular symphony has received herein a performance and recording that will be difficult to surpass, in spite of the many competing versions. The first movement is the most Nordically cool of them all, it still has the catchy main theme which has become one of the Sibelius' 'greatest hits' - so much so that it showed up on a CD of 'Hooked On the Classics' themes. Opening the disc with the quarter-hour length Pohjola's Daughter is an appropriate move in that the work can be regarded...

Description James DePreist and the Oregon Symphony's 2002 recordings of Sibelius' Second and Seventh symphonies are clean-limbed, strong-muscled performances of clean-headed and open-hearted interpretations captured in stunning, sometimes staggering sound. DePreist conducting is bright and alert with subtle inflections and a firm, long line. The Oregon's playing is hard and tough with warm woodwinds, smooth strings, and gargantuan brass. Delos' sound is as good as digital sound can get with an amazing...

Avery good and eminently recommendable account of Sibelius's Second Symphony...good, well chosen tempos and no want of tenderness at the Andante sostenuto theme...Mackerras holds the structure together and the finale is dignified and not overblown...The recording...bright and clean with plenty of presence, the orchestral tecture fits well, and the balance very realistic and natural.

British singer Russell Watson applies his charming, full-bodied tenor voice to an eclectic set of songs on 2005's AMORE MUSICA. While certain tracks fall squarely into the opera aesthetic, others are more pop-oriented, with Watson commanding attention regardless of the style. Watson's sense of drama is perhaps best served by his renditions of compositions from the films GLADIATOR (the majestic "Il Gladiatore") and ROB ROY (the delicate "You'll Still Be There for Me"). Along with "The Alchemist,"...
