Review Vanessa-Mae - The Violin Player / Vanessa-Mae:Vanessa-Mae, vehemently opposed to any "compartmentalising of music", describes the material on this album as "techno-acoustic fusion". As far as instrumentation and recording techniques go, that's a pretty fair description. But when the subtitle is "The Classical Album" , Vanessa-Mae and her producer/composer Mike Batt (of Wombles fame) stand accused of misleading their audience. Apart from the opening "Toccata in D", one of the prodigy Vanessa-Mae's favourite show pieces, all tracks are original compositions, most of them by Batt. What we hear are contemporary, poppy pieces, rock drum and keyboard-based, and tailor made for Vanessa-Mae's high-energy yet delicate virtuosity. The fact that the talented Batt is audibly influenced by Michael Nyman does not make his compositions more "classical", but thankfully steers them out of the tedious realm of "Classic Rock". "Widescreen" is a track where the Mae-Batt synthesis works very well; both violinist and producer making the most of the technology-meets-tradition concept. Some of this is film score material, some shopping-mall ear drum fodder, other tracks yet again, revisit Mike Oldfield's old pastures-it is a matter of discussion whether this album "defies all labelling" or simply makes a point of wooing them all in pursuit of the widest possible audience. Hence the "wet T-shirt", sorry, "glistening Sea-Nymph" photo of Vanessa-Mae on the sleeve. -Yngvil V. [+]

Review Eternal Echoes / English Chamber Orchestra John Barry:Eternal Echoes is John Barry's follow-up to The Beyondness of Things, an original solo album of independent material not connected to any film. From the spare, monochrome artwork it is clear this will be a reflective collection, and the composer describes the 11 pieces as comprising "an album of sounds, of places and of objects that have always existed and always will exist. They are without beginning or end. They are infinite in our past and future. " Unfortunately this timelessness translates musically into solemn, dirge-like tracks which sound much like romantic John Barry film themes such as Out of Africa or Dances with Wolves but drained of any life or memorable melodic invention. As a film musician, Barry has been heading towards increasingly string dominated, introspective music for over a decade. As inspired by the poetry of his friend John O'Donahue, Eternal Echoes takes the direction to extremes. While "Fred and Cyd" does have a slowed-down Goldfinger brass swagger and "Blessed Illusion" evokes a wide-open American landscape, the remainder of the cuts serve best as meditative backgrounds which immediately slip from memory. The simultaneously released Enigma soundtrack holds much more of interest for long-term Barry fans. -Gary S Dalkin.
