CD Reviews

Impeccable, Delightful, Hysterically Funny

JSpangler | Silicon Valley, CA, USA | 12/22/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I love this recording ("Classiks on Toys,"ISBN #B00005AVIB). You won't believe what it is: a recording of all or parts of various works by several classical musicians: Bach, Beethoven, Brahms, Debussy and more. Impeccably played...are you ready?...on toy instruments--piano, wind, percussion, etc. Can you imagine the "Toccata and Fugue for organ in D minor" by Bach, played on a toy piano? How about "Bolero" by Maurice Ravel? It's not just that it can be done--NO! It's how well it's done. Several of the pieces are actually thrilling--although frustrating because the excerpts are too short!!

OK, OK--I guess it's charming in part because it's unorthodox and a little poke to music snobs out there doesn't hurt, and it is for kids, after all. But the music itself is lovely and--bravo!--well played.

This recording has more humor and verve than another recording by Lafond with a similar title (also called "Classiks on Toys"--note the "k" in "Classiks"), but is all Tchaikovsky, including excerpts from The "Nutcracker." It's OK, but for me it doesn't reach the same heights."
