Classical violinist Gil Shaham has discovered what so many pop artists have already discovered: the future of recording is in self-produced, self-owned discs. Since founding the Canary Classics label in 2004, Shaham has done his best work since his DG debut. He already had several excellent discs to his credit, including an especially exciting Prokofiev disc, but this Fauré Album featuring works for violin and piano and for violin, cello, and piano was in some ways the best yet. Because much as the American-born, Israeli-raised violinist was incredibly thrilling in Prokofiev's edgy modernism, he is supremely seductive in Fauré's lyrical romanticism. With pianist Akira Eguchi in the early Violin Sonata No. 1 and cellist Brinton Smith in the late Piano Trio, Shaham is suave of tone, smooth of technique, and persuasive of argument. But in the shorter pieces in-between the two multimovement works, Shaham, freed from the constraints of large-scale structures, is almost unbearably ravishing, with a sweet legato tone and an inward intensity that is nearly irresistible. Try just the Sicilienne from his Pelléas et Mélisande incidental music: if that doesn't melt your heart, perhaps you should check to see if it's still working. Recorded by producer and engineer Da-Hong Seetoo at the American Academy and Institute of Arts and Letters, the digital sound here is wonderfully vivid and present. ~ James Leonard, All Music Guide

Ex-husband Andrew Lloyd Webber's Really Useful Records can be accused of scraping the bottom of the barrel in its second compilation of old Sarah Brightman tracks released to take advantage of the singer's international popularity due to her albums Time to Say Goodbye, Eden, and La Luna, all recorded for a different company. Happily, even the bottom of the barrel contains some excellent material, even after the cream was skimmed off with The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection. During and after her marriage to Lloyd Webber, Brightman performed on the Original London Cast recording of {+The Phantom of the Opera} and recorded the albums The Songs That Got Away (1989) and Surrender (1995), and that's the material sampled here, that is, the remaining tracks that weren't used on The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection. There are four songs recorded for those album sessions that were not released -- Lloyd Webber's "Whistle Down the Wind," Burton Lane and Alan Jay Lerner's "One More Walk Around the Garden," Stephen Sondheim's "What More Do I Need," and George and Ira Gershwin's "In the Mandarin's Orchid Garden." The last three, fairly obscure songs by well-known show-music songwriters, are typical of the non-Lloyd Webber choices found on The Songs That Got Away and Surrender. Also typical are the Lloyd Webber oddities, such as Italian-language versions of "With One Look" from {+Sunset Boulevard} and "Memory" from {+Cats}. If the mixed bag of material works, it's because of the unflappable Brightman, who doesn't only gamely undertake the selections, but throws herself into them, making "Piano" (as "Memory" somehow comes out in Italian) sound like an opera selection. "What More Do I Need," a comic celebration of love in dirty old New York, is beyond her, but not much else is. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
