Music reviews of Homage (CD & DVD)

Music Review: If you play the violin, or just enjoy listening, get this ...
Rating: 5 Stars

Most of us will never even touch a Stradivarius or a Guarneri let alone own a dozen or so, as David Fulton does. But here is the next best thing for only $30. Maybe even better. Not only do you see each of the dozen or so instruments in the collection, but James Ehnes has carefully selected a virtuoso piece to bring out the best in each instrument. This DVD looks and sounds top drawer in every respect: the performance and the photography of the instrument and performer. Ehnes mastery of these instruments has to be seen to be believed, his control of the bow is peerless. (You also get to see bows that cost as much or more than a Porsche).

Techies will likely remember FoxPro, which David Fulton invented. When Microsoft bought him out, guess what he did with the proceeds? This DVD is a showcase in which no expense has been spared, and I doubt if it would recoup its production cost.

I hafta say I was blown away by it. And one reviewer said Ehnes is not a violinist's violinist? He is jaw droppingly good! Ask a violinist how "easy" it is to do the stuff he does. I might add that the photography really foregrounds Ehnes' superb technique.
