DVD Reviews of Solti: Orchestra!

DVD Review: Review of Orchestra! by Sir Georg Solti and Dudlet Moore.
Summary: 4 Stars

I found the video to be very informative although Sir Georg Solti is hard to understand with his thick German accent. Subtitles would be a very helpful addition to this program. The colored lights during the performances of the music are distracting and un-needed. The music is perfect as it is and doesn't need any help from them.

DVD Review: Beautiful people making beautiful music
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an excellent production, both for students of music and for the music loving public. It is required viewing for all students in my studio. Bravo! Ron Frost, R.N., M.A.

DVD Review: AMAZING
Summary: 5 Stars

TO WATCH THESE TWO TALENTED INDIVIDUALS TOGETHER WAS A TREAT. I HAD WATCHED THIS WHEN IT WAS ORIGNALLY AIRED ON PUBLIC TELEVISION. HAVE ALWAYS LIKED AND ENJOYED DUDLEY MOORE, BUT HAD NO IDEA OF HIS GREAT LOVE AND SKILL AT PLAYING CLASSICAL MUSIC. SIR GEORGE SOLTI WAS A PHENOMENON IN THE MUSIC WORLD, AND WHAT THEY DID WITH THESE YOUNG MUSICIANS IS AN INSPIRATION. THIS MUSICAL PRESENTATION SHOULD BE REQUIRED IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS, TO GIVE YOUNG PEOPLE A RAY OF HOPE IN CHOOSING A CAREER IN THE MUSIC WORLD. BREAKING THE ORCHESTRA DOWN IN SECTIONS TO ACTUALLY HEAR THE COMBINATION OF SOUNDS FROM THE SPECIFIC SECTIONS IS TRULY ENLIGHTENING, EVEN FOR A DIE HARD CLASSICAL MUSICIAN AS MYSELF....THIS WAS A TRUE TREAT TO GET ALL SESSIONS OF THIS MUSICAL PRESENTATION ALL ON TWO DISKS. THANK YOU, JOHN ZULAICA

DVD Review: A joyful prolegomenon for all time art
Summary: 5 Stars

Orchestra is a very good work about how human genius can produce perfection and order from the caos and diversity. Focus and discipline in order to produce art. How that is possible? How to make it? How to understand it? It's a very simple and also quite sofisticated way to bring to everyone the coprehension of it. Amusing and enlightening to all publics.

DVD Review: Orchestral Dream
Summary: 4 Stars

This is an informative guide to the orchestra that makes it easy to learn the different levels of each section of a classical orchestra. These young musicians are superb and in the hands of a legend such as Sir Georg, they shine throughout this excellent series.

Description of Solti: Orchestra!

The landmark BBC series from 1991, the show introduces the instruments and workings of the symphony orchestra. Originally broadcast in the US on PBS stations. Featuring actor/comedian Dudley Moore (10, Arthur), who was also an accomplished pianist. Perfectly entertaining as well as an educational celebration of the orchestra. Includes a documentary of The Making of Orchestra! Includes bonus CD of music from the TV series
