5 out of 5 stars two magnificent artists   November 16, 2009
M. Jackson (Phx, Az)
First heard this cd at barnes and nobles coffee shop.After hearing only two cuts I had to have it,the more you listen to it, the better it becomes. If you are a fan of either of these two artists, I highly reccomend it for your library.

Two masters of their respective instuments and a beautiful music selection. I had not heard about this CD and bumped into it in the Amazon page. Worth every penny.


3 out of 5 stars Duos these are not!   February 29, 2008

This CD flies under false pretenses. These are not duos which imply two equal instruments. They are violin pieces with a guitar accompaniment in the background. It is fine music, but I have heard prefomances in person in which the guitar had a bigger role.


3 out of 5 stars Beautiful, wanton butchery   July 10, 2001
Eugene C. Braig IV (Columbus, OH United States)

The sound of these instruments in duo is exquisite. The performances here are stunning. Itzhak's violin sings in the hands of its master. Mr. Williams' mastery of the guitar is no less great in its power to move. It's not what is performed, but what isn't, that caused this recording by venerable masters to ruffle my feathers. All but one of the variations where the guitar assumes a lead role are edited out of the second movement of Giuliani's op. 25, perhaps Giuliani's finest chamber work. What Giuliani intended as an interesting dialog between instrumental peers has been reduced to Guitar as dog in service to master Violin with the toss of only one bone for its efforts. Simply wrong.


5 out of 5 stars A Sublime Serenade   July 24, 2000

The DUOS CD by Perlman & Williams provides the most sublime music this side of Mozart. Their presentation of the Paganini Sonata Concertata in A is particularly "otherworldly"
