Delta, 2000 Nice surprise... Some of the first music I purchased years ago at Costco, taking a gamble on the quality of pieces chosen, orchestrations, etc..

Decca, 2005 A very special Christmas album My wife and I love Christmas music, but this album is in a class by itself.

Opera Rara UK, 2006 An Instant Favorite This is a really good, no great, performance of rarely heard set pieces from the bel canto operas of Mercadante and Pacini.

RCA, 1993 Unusual but outstanding flute music This is one of a number of cd's bought for my wife (an avid flute lover) which have turned out to be among my favorites.
