Here is what people are saying about the Earquake
5 Star Rating  "essential audiophile collection"2008-06-04
- Reviewed By Randy C. Baer from Los Angeles, California
No guilty pleasure this! Instead of a compilation of existing excerpts (with the exception of "Angel of Light"), the estimable Leif Segerstam has seamlessly drawn together new performances with the excellent Helsinki Phil. designed to produce maximum aural excitement in minimum time. Occassionally providing a moment's breathing room (notably Jacob Druckman's lovely, ethereal "Prism"), the collection easily achieves its primary goal of achieving a palpable, triple-forte high. As for the artistic validity of the music, there are contributions here from Shostakovich, Prokofiev, Khachaturian, Ginastera, Nielsen, and Respighi. Even the rather insane "Hekla" by Jon Leifs has its cacaphonous charms. While I usually avoid classical excerpt albums like the plague, the intelligence of selection and high level of execution plus sterling sonics behind this hourlong sort of suite, have made this one of my favorite discs of recent years.
 
4 Star Rating  "A guilty pleasure"2003-07-26
- Reviewed By Tambora from Rolla, MO
I kind of feel bad recommending, and with four stars nonetheless, a recording of such shameless and unartistic music. However, if you just got a new speaker system or something and need to break it in, this is your CD.

The word of the day for this CD is LOUD. Clear? Sometimes. Impassioned? Occasionally. Artistic? Rarely. But deafening with a side of deafening served with stentorian sauce? Yes, and incessantly.

If that's what you're looking for, then I suppose it should get five stars. The real caveat here is that the informational liner notes so oft-expected with classical music recordings are simply missing. There are liner notes, but any respect for the represented artists is downgraded further when sometimes the name of the piece you're listening to is unclear. The makers of this CD were so enamored with their own "Track Title"s that the real names of the pieces are often butchered.

Oh, well. This is still a lot of fun to listen to. You're just going to have to do your own research for the rest of the story.

 
3 Star Rating  "To correct"2003-07-18
- Reviewed By Stefan Steinsson from Hvolsvelli, Iceland
The previous reviewer thinks that Hekla is the name of the composer who wrote this record's final track. It is not. The composer's name is Jón Leifs (1899-1968). Hekla is the name of the volcano.
 
5 Star Rating  "Not just for classical music fans...."1998-10-31
- Reviewed By An Amazon User
If you thought classical music was all harps and softly playing flutes and violins, this CD is for you. 13 megadecibel masterworks by composers like Respighi and Prokofiev---and Hekla's "Volcano", which uses steel plates, rocks, anvils, chains, sirens, cannons, and a 140-piece orchestra to create the loudest piece of classical music ever written. It even comes with a pair of earplugs for your neighbor!! It's imported from Europe, where it was a best seller.
