| 3. |  | Bach: The 6 Unaccompanied Cello Suites from Sony Price: $19.49 Customer Review: Perhaps you've played this game at a party or something: if you were trapped on a desert island with only one book/record/painting/etc. -- what would it be? When it comes to music, this record is my "desert island" choice. I've had my copy of the old original "red album" since it first came out, and... |

| 4. |  | Appalachian Journey from Sony Price: $10.99 Customer Review:  I totally respect YoYo Ma but this CD was a little disappointing because all the tunes were more like jaz and improv than nice tight blue grass and Appalachian fiddle tunes. One reel was nice but they all had a slow dirge quality that disappointed me. |

| 5. |  | Yo-Yo Ma Plays Ennio Morricone from Sony Price: $13.99 Customer Review: This is just beautiful music--very melodious and evocative. Yo-Yo Ma is a consummate musician. Wonderful compositions like Morricone's in his hands is a delight to the ears and emotions. I highly recommend this CD. |

| 6. |  | The Essential Yo-Yo Ma from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: I just love him... I love his music.. Just a fact that CD case was all broken, it's all good as long as I can hear his music. |

| 7. |  | Simply Baroque from Sony Price: $10.99 Customer Review:  I bought this because I love to listen to cellos. On my Mark&Daniels,the sound is first rate, overall. ButI would have loved to have the cello given a bit more prominence, audio-wise. The accompanying instruments are aggressive enough to drown the cello out in the musical pictures, except for... |

| 8. |  | Appassionato by Yo Yo Ma Price: $14.99 Customer Review:  Horrible, horrible recording. Yo Yo Ma, as usual, gives a great performance. The sound engineer, Richard King, should be run out of his profession. The recording is muddled, piano and other instruments are too loud, and even the sound of the cello is occasionally distorted. You can hear Ma breathing... |

| 9. |  | Appalachia Waltz / Ma, Meyer, O'Connor from Sony Price: $13.99 Customer Review: I am a bit of a music snob. This album wowed me completely and I listen to it several times a week on average. |

| 10. |  | Super Hits by Yo-Yo Ma Price: $5.98 Customer Review: What beautiful music that man can bring forth from a cello! Thank God for musicians like he is, with such an eclectic bent that he seems never to be "stuffy" even though he's as good a musician as the stuffiest ones on stage. |

| 11. |  | Soul of the Tango: The Music of Astor Piazzolla from Sony Price: $13.99 Customer Review: This is the best I have run into for practicing as well as just listening, this really is the "Soul of the Tango"! simply amazing! |

| 12. |  | Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World by Iva Davies Price: $14.99 Customer Review: I love the music from this movie. It has lots of great violin, cello, and orchestral tracks. The soundtrack feels complete with lots of variety and plenty of listening time. Highly recommend! |

| 14. |  | Vivaldi's Cello from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: Look, this cd has its bright spots, but there is so much that just didn't work out with it. Firstly, the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra plays with its usual energy and authentic approach, but Yo Yo plays in a modern style. The two just don't mix. I keep expecting to hear some decorations to the cello... |

| 15. |  | Silk Road Journeys: Beyond the Horizon from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: This CD is anyone who longs to travel to far away, exotic places but cannot afford to get there in "real time". I was, and am so impressed with this CD from the moment I heard it on WQXR one beautiful spring morning, I knew "I had to own it" and I have not regretted listening to it over and over... |

| 16. |  | The Dvorak Album from Sony Price: $10.99 Customer Review: Do not buy this record. I did, without reading any reviews, thinking that with the lovely, lyric Dvorak cello concerto and the superb cellist Yo-Yo Ma, I could hardly go wrong. Yes, the Dvorak is an outstanding composition, and Yo-Yo Ma plays very well, but the audio engineering on this recording is... |

| 17. |  | Obrigado Brazil by Yo-Yo Ma Price: $14.99 Customer Review:  I was excited to get this as a gift. Then I played it. I expected some fun and Sambas. Pretty dull, very little cello, not even pleasant as background music. I put my copy in the pile for Good Will. |

| 19. |  | Silk Road Journeys: When Strangers Meet from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: Since returning from a trip to China, I have become very interested in the music and the entire culture and history of the Far East. To an American, it seems like such an exotic and mysterious world. Given the formidable languages and the vastness of it all, I can only say that I can only hope to... |

| 20. |  | Hush from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: Some recordings sound polished and elegant. Some sound like the artists are having a blast while they're recording. "Hush" is a delightful mix of both. Most of the songs are pretty quiet save for my three favorites. You've got a lot of traditional and classical music with Master Ma's beautiful... |

| 21. |  | New Impossibilities by Yo-Yo Ma Price: $14.99 Customer Review: As you might note from my other reviews, I find the work and range of Yo Yo Ma to be quite stimulating and wonderful to hear. I often take chances and buy his work without previewing it based on past happy purchases. I fell in love with the first album in the Silk Road series since it was full of... |

| 22. |  | Classic Yo-Yo from Sony Price: $14.99 Customer Review: Erbarme Dich for Cello and piano - it was Yo-Yo Ma's recording which inspired me to find a transcription for Cello and piano (Spartan UK). Ma's Bach is the most poetic, instinctive and analytical: I once heard him play all the 6 Suites at once concert from memory & my feet didn't touch the... |

| 23. |  | Bach: The Cello Suites Inspired By Bach, From The Six-Part Film Series / Yo-Yo Ma from Sony Price: $28.99 Customer Review: This is a beautiful performance of the Suites, certainly one of my favorites. Ma tunes his strings down a half step, giving his cello a warmer, richer tone than his 80s recording (pink cover). All in all, the differences between the two recordings are startling, and it is very interesting to compare... |

| 24. |  | Immortal Beloved / Sir Georg Solti (film 1994) by Ludwig van Beethoven Price: $12.99 Customer Review: This is my personal favorite rendition of Beethoven's work, although it's only a small sample. The approach taken on some numbers by the conductor and performers are quite moving, and for me personally it inspired emotions I haven't found in other versions of the same music. This soundtrack made me... |

If your into a mix of classical music and jazz mix then this disc is for you! We've listened to it many times and have even had comments from guests who ask who was playing during a recent gathering or ours. Purchase this, it's great!!!!! |

| 28. |  | Beethoven - Triple Concerto ~ Choral Fantasy / Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, Berliner Phil., Barenboim by Ludwig van Beethoven Price: $10.97 Customer Review: After a horrendously exhausting day, I listened tonight to this recording, and found myself applauding at the end -- and then astonished that there was also applause on the CD! I had not realized it was a live recording. In the meantime, this care-giver, this senior citizen, this ex-violinist, this... |

| 29. |  | Mozart: The Piano Quartets from Sony Price: $9.99 Customer Review: These two "Piano Quartets" are Mozart at his most magnificent. The team of Ma, Ax, Stern and Laredo, who also brought us classic chamber recordings by Beethoven, Brahms, Faure, and most recently Dvorak, here tackle Mozart with glowing results. I have to say that while I'm a huge fan of Yo-Yo Ma and... |

| 30. |  | Yo-Yo Ma - Simply Baroque II ~ Bach & Boccherini / ABO, Koopman by Johann Sebastian Bach Price: $13.98 Customer Review: I own both Simply Baroque and Simply Baroque II. I think both offer the listener a truly beautiful listening experience. Yo Yo Ma and Tom Koopman have created magic here. The recording is crystal clear and the music... it's just incredible. I find myself relaxed, involved, immersed - a part of the... |
