Music reviews of The John Tesh Project: Pure Movies 2
Music Review: 2 stars - and from a John Tesh fan!
Rating: 2 Stars
This CD contains a nice selection of music suitable for piano and orchestration - a pair from Phill Collins (You'll be in my heart and Against all odds) and Michael Legrand (Summer of 42 and Brian's Song)and a few "standards" - What a Wonderful World, Evergreen and the more recent Take My Breath Away.I would have rated it higher, but for the stilted piano playing and unimaginative orchestration especially on - What A Wonderful World, The Crying Game and She's Like the Wind (not a great tune anyways!)
This CD has a real lack of feeling; its almost seems as if all the players are just going through the motions. Come on John - try adding some finesse or a few chords...something!!
This was a real disappointment for me - and I do own and enjoy a number of his other collections.
I would save your money and try some Richard Clayderman.
Description of The John Tesh Project: Pure Movies 2
All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.How you view this niche product from pianist John Tesh (an assortment of pop songs from date movies that Tesh has reworked as piano-based instrumentals) depends largely on how you regard the material he has selected. Pure Movies 2 leans heavily on mass-audience two-hankie favorites: Lionel Richie's "Endless Love," Phil Collins's "Against All Odds," Michel Legrand's "Brian's Song" and "Summer of '42," and so on. The overall mood is soft and sentimental, and Tesh's playing and arranging regularly succeed at triggering the swift, surface-level emotional responses inherent in fast-acting movie music. Tesh works in both a solo mode and an ensemble setting, only occasionally goosing his pieces with swelling, emote-with-me strings ("Brian's Song," "Somewhere in Time"). Happily, his approach is generally low-key on most tracks, and he shines on pop-ensemble pieces such as "She's Like the Wind" (from Dirty Dancing) and "The Crying Game." The disc's best moment? The first track, "You'll Be in My Heart," where Tesh takes Collins's theme-setter from the animated Tarzan and retools it into a heart-racing, reach-for-the-stars gem. Two ballad-like vocal tracks are included: "When She Loved Me" (from Toy Story 2, sung by Richard Page), and the disc's lone Tesh original, "Heart of the Sunrise," featuring Christian vocalist Cindy Morgan. --Terry Wood
