Shostakovich - Katerina Izmailova
March 2007 - I have waited 30 years to see this and was not disappointed - only happy to have lived long enough to finally have this opportunity! First off: Vishnevskaya. For those, like me, who'd only experienced this artist in concert, to finally witness her in a complete role - and one as tailor-made for her as this one proves to be -... » Usually ships in 24 hours |

Testimony - Tony Palmer's Story of Shostakovich / Ben Kingsley
Tony Palmer appears to have made a documentary on just about every musician in the world, and generally gets high ratings. My first purchase was "England, My England -- The Story of Henry Purcell" (151 minutes). All I saw were actors walking around in old clothes with a few snippets of Purcell's music in the background. Unfortunately, I didn't learn f... » Usually ships in 24 hours |
