Customer Reviews

Wonderful!
What can I say about this CD? It's marvelous! Sabine Meyer's playing is fluid, musical, and effortless. The transcriptions of operatic pieces are expertly done and the Rossini Intro, Theme, and Variations at the end of the CD is a showstopper! A must-buy for any clarinettist or music-lover, even you conservative opera-aficionados out there!

She sings opera with the clarinet beautifully
I have had this CD for 3 years, and listened to it many, many times at home or on my long drive in the car. I have never felt tired of enjoying the pieces on this CD, and got more of her recordings on other CDs instead.

Sabine Meyer is a true master of the clarinet. In this recording of opera pieces, she demonstrated how well the clarinet could sing opera beautifully. My favorite pieces in this CD include Bassi's "Fantaisie brillante on Verdi's `Rigoletto'", Danzi's "Variations on `Là Ci Darem la Mano'", and Rossini's "Theme and Variations".

This is definitely a clarinet CD to have.

Sabine does it once again....
Sabine Meyer proves her virtuosity again in this incredibly CD of operatic music for the clarinet. The CD contains some little known works for the clarinet that deserve more credit than they are given. You will be hypnotized by Sabine's delicate sound and impecable interpretation. Well done Sabine!!
