The complete Hungarian Rhapsodies by Michele Campanella (Phillips Duo) >is also a bargain at under 10 ($15). Michelle Campanella, in my opinion (i listened him in live performances,when i was student at Rome),is one of the worst musicians of the century. He is considered by his fans as the highest representative of the Vincenzo Vitale pianistic school.This school is of a really great level under the technical (mechanical) side, but the "caposcuola" (master) of it (Vincenzo Vitale) was too a bad musician.Unfortunately all "descendants" of this school were most of a low musical level.Two exceptions i knew from it were Franco medori,and Carlo Bruno. Maybe Campanella recording of Liszt Rapsodys is good(anyway, playing Liszt music under the musical point of view,is not difficult for anybody),but i can't imagine him playing Mozart >If you find you prefer Haydn to Mozart, Handel to Bach or Bruckner to >Mahler relax, don't feel guilty, you are not alone. Very good advice,despite i prefer Mozart to Haydn,etc. Cordially. Gerardo:.
