CD Reviews

THE AGONY OF MODERN MUSIC?????

Robert W. Allen | Northfield Falls, Vermont United States | 04/09/2010

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Back in the sixties, when I was still studying music at the University of Vermont, an older man showed up at our music department. He had read a book by Henry Pleasance called THE AGONY OF MODERN MUSIC, a dreadful book about how modern music is all junk and we shouldn't listen to it. This man further maintained that anybody who wrote music for the movies was a hack and shouldn't be taken seriously. How I wish now that I had had this little CD with me to prove him wrong.

The Browns clearly threw themselves into this project heart and soul and the results show it. John Williams and Bernard Herrmann will always be on my list of top composers, maybe not at the very top but certainly up there. As to the rest, they've given us sparkling renditions of works by Elmer Bernstein, one of my favorite movie composers, Nino Rota, Dario Marianelli, and Philip Glass. And the solo renditions of Scott Joplin's Solace, played by Gregory, and Richard Rodgers' My Favorite Things played by Melody are both charming. On top of all that, don't miss Greg Anderson's lively transcription of Harold Arlen's Over the Rainbow which is mesmerizing when played on five Steinway pianos.

The 5 Browns have done it again. I really look forward to seeing what they will do in future. Any chance that we can get an album of them doing Holst's The Planets, or Saint-Saens' Danse Macabre?"

Amazing!

"The new 5 Brown's Cd - "The 5 Browns in Hollywood" does not disappoint! Not only is the music excellent

but it is also fun to listen to. With 13 selections to choose from there is something for everyone to enjoy!

The Cd begins with a 9 minute tribute to Star Wars that any fan of the movies or John Williams will appreciate. There are so many words you could use to describe it - beautiful, majestic, fun...Because I was able to see

them perform this selection in concert it is definitely one of my favorites!

I would have to say that "Over the Rainbow" is my very favorite! It is a collection of songs from the movie seamlessly woven together. Hauntingly beautiful, the title song will make you cry but then all of a sudden

you hear the witch flying above the rest of the music. The arrangement is amazing!!!

The Disney music is sure to please the children in the family. One of the reasons I love the 5 Browns is

because they make classical music fun for kids! Mary Poppins, Beauty and the Beast and Snow White - what more

could a kid ask for?"

Great album!!!

"This disc has such a great selection of music, and the arrangements are spectacular. I think this must certainly be their best album yet! I really like Star Wars (the Cantina Music is soooo much fun!) and the Disney Suite. I can enjoy listening to this with my 7 year old, who loves and sings along with the music from Star Wars, The Sound of Music and all the Disney movies."
