Amazing Value
I am so impressed by this collection that I must share my joy at getting so many beautiful arias, duets, et al in one collection. It captures many of the great operatic voices in stellar performances spanning the last 50 years. If you are enchanted by beautiful ...

Magical
While listening to this CD, I had the undeniable feeling that I was outside breathing in the fresh air, relaxing in the sunshine listening to the sounds of a babbling brook and this glorious music!

The last, warm-hearted Ma Vlast from Kubelik in 1990
Rafael Kubelik recorded Ma Vlast five times over the long span of his career, and each version has a special quality. Here, in advanced age and poor health, he gives a valedictory reading that is notably warm-hearted and lyrical. The epic side of Smetana's expansive ...

A Great Reissue at a Great Price!
. This is an excellent disc--a reissue from the '70s--and as a bonus, it's at a great price. The Berg Concerto is great, and almost too popular: it's available in several performances. The Schoenberg Piano Concerto is also available in serveral realizations ...

Perfect Wagner.
Superb recordings of Wagner. Especially Lohengrin, Prelude to Act 1 which is by far the best recording of that piece, with the perfect tempo.

Beautiful Collection of Classical Music
This is a fantastic CD of beautiful music. It is uplifting and soothing at the same time. I have several good classic music compilations CDs, but this is my favorite and the one that gets played daily! When the littlest one is napping, it goes on. When I'm cooking, ...
Dvorák: Symphonies 8 & 9 / Kubelik, Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra

Deutsche Grammophon, 1996
Magnificnt reading of the Eighth!
The Eighth Symphony maybe considered a work with accented resemblance in what spirit concerns, to Beethoven's Pastoral Symphony or Schuman's Renana. Somehow this humble and honest artwork prefigures (specially in the second half of the Adagio) Mahler. It owns manifold ...

A great addition to my music collection
This CD takes the place of all my other Wagner music. VERY well done. Somehow I didn't realize that there were two cds in the package--what a pleasant surprise! Of the two cds, I like the first one best, but they are both good. I listen to this cd daily on my way to ...

Excellent opera selections. Good range of different operas. The singers themselves are well known. Highly recommended to anyone getting into classical music.

Underrated opera: great performance
Palestrina was an opera that fascinated me long before I heard it. From all I'd read, it seemed to be one of a select group of operas, dealing with the actual process of artistic creation (Benvenuto Cellini, Die Meistersinger, Mathis der Mahler, Death in Venice to ...
Dvorák: The Nine Symphonies

Deutsche Grammophon, 1999
Could be the definitive set
I recently, actually just before purchasing this set, received Vaclav Neumann's set with the Czech Philharmonic. A really good set to compare this one to. I also have had, over the years, different performances of the late symphonies with, Ormandy, Szell, Sawallisch, ...

Zizka's Drum
As a Protestant fundamentalist, I take a particular interest in 19th century cultural interpretations of the early Protestant heritage. Mendelssohn's "Reformation" Symphony No. 5 treats Luther's hymn "A Mighty Fortress" with respect. As one might expect, operas from ...

A ***MUST HAVE*** ALBUM for lovers of CHORAL & SACRED MUSIC!
If you have a any appreciation at all for the human voice raised in song, you will absolutely LOVE this album!! I have had this album on cassette since 1990, but until three weeks ago, I'd never listened to the entire cassette. I had only listened to the first song ...
