  • American Classics - Beach: Songs / Kelton, Bringerud

    $19.99

    Amy Beach's songs are pleasant enough, and certainly well-crafted, with smartly chosen texts--Burns, Longfellow, Browning, Shelley, and some lesser-known poets, including Beach herself. But most of their appeal lies with the composer's deftness in borrowing...

  • American Classics - Hanson: Organ Concerto, Etc / Spalding

    $19.99

    Howard Hanson's frankly romantic, occasionally kitschy music may arouse extremes of enthusiasm and distaste among listeners (I happen to like him), but there's no doubt that he was one of the few modern composers who...

  • American Classics - Toch: Tanz-suite, Cello Concerto

    $19.99

    The two works on this disc date from the early to mid 1920s and very much belong to the "new objectivity" of composers such as Weill and early Hindemith. Indeed, when listening to the Cello...

  • American Classics - Carpenter: Adventures In A Perambulator

    $19.99

    At last! The absence of a really good disc devoted to the music of John Alden Carpenter has long been one of the most glaring lacunae in the American classical music catalog. Individual works have...

  • American Classics - John Adams: Complete Piano Music

  • American Classics - Herbert: Columbus Suite, Irish Rhapsody

    $19.99

    Here's a lovely disc for a rainy day. The Irish Rhapsody is a charmer, a delightful collection of good tunes very much in the tradition of late 19th-century Romantic nationalism (Dvorak's Slavonic Rhapsodies, Alfven's Swedish...
