The Most Relaxing Classical Album in the World...Ever!

Johann Sebastian Bach, Léo Delibes, ...

EMI Classics, 1999

music
I enjoy this type of music. For relaxation, it's great. Great for background music when I'm working.

Sarah Brightman Classics

Sarah Brightman, Tomaso Giovanni Albinoni, ...

Angel Records, 2001

One of her best albums!
This is one of the best classical albums I've heard in a while and this is one of the few where Sarah doesn't include any "modern" sound effects in her songs. It includes a very nice version of Etude No.3 Opus 10 by Chopin and the all-time favorite Pie Jesu from the ...

25 Beethoven Favorites

George Berry, George Silfies, ...

Vox (Classical), 1996

Nice cd
I ordered this CD for my brother who is now taking piano lessons. The compositions aren't full length but they are good enough for a newcomer to get a feel for some Beethoven. I would recommend this CD to others.

Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Symphonies

Beethoven's Wig

Rounder / Umgd, 2002

The entire family loves this CD
From 4 years old to 40 years old, each of us enjoys Beethoven's Wig. We have #1 and #2 and I could not tell you which the kids enjoy more - but I do have a slight preference for #1. I'm online now getting ready to purchase #3 and #4 will be for Christmas. I'm also ...

The Most Soothing Lullabies In The Universe

Frederic Chopin, Claude Debussy, ...

Denon Records, 2004

The Most Soothing Lullabies
great collection of classical music that most people would recognize. I was so happy to finally find this music played with real instruments and not midi/synthesized. I like to play this cd in the evening while we start to wind things down and helps my transition ...

25 Mozart Favorites

John Sant'Ambrogio, Jost Michaels, ...

Vox (Classical), 1996

Great Music
The music on this album is very well done. Amazon's description was sketchy and after receiving the album I realized I already owned it. Fortunately I have friends that would appreciate it so it will make a wonderful gift.

25 Bach Favorites

Hildegard Rutgers, Erich Wenk, ...

Vox (Classical), 1996

Bach
Surely you don't need me to review the guy. You know who he is, you've heard his music, and I hope you own some. So let me turn the podium over to a cat named Picasso, and you can read into that whatever you wish. She's in a chair, near the CD player. She has entered ...

Beethoven: Symphonies 5 & 7

Ludwig van Beethoven, Carlos Kleiber, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 1996

Definitive Fifth, Great Seventh
The Fifth is very, very polished and sounds just like it should. What more could you say about a recording of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony? I mean, it's the Fifth Symphony! Next I'll review the Mona Lisa... I can say that this Fifth seems "faster" than some versions, ...

The Most Relaxing Classical Music in the Universe

Johann Pachelbel, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, ...

Denon Records, 2003

best cd
These 2 cds are the best collection of classical music that I think I will ever own.

The Most Relaxing Piano Album in the World...Ever!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

EMI Classics, 2001

Relaxing Music Suited For Today's Busy Lifestyles
"A vast and tender calm Seems to descend from the sky Lit by the moon This is the exquisite hour" ~ Paul Verlaine ~ The above quote is taken from a poem by 19th Century Fench poet Paul Verlaine titled "La Bonne Chanson No. 6." His words fittingly describe the ...

Piano Sonatas 1-32 (Box)

Beethoven, Wilhelm Kempff

Dg Imports, 2008

My Favorite Recordings of the Beethoven Piano Sonatas
Over time, my favorites change, but I can honestly say that Kempff's Beethoven Piano Sonatas have continued to give great pleasure. The recording quality is fine. The acoustic is very good. His playing is gentle and even a bit whimsical at times. I never get the ...

Kaufmann: Mozart, Schubert, Beethoven & Wagner

Jonas Kaufmann

Decca, 2009

Kaufmann back on home territory - and in tremendous form
I have heard Jonas Kaufmann live (and been very impressed) but not yet in any Wagner. On the evidence of this disc, he is more than ready, as long as he has the vocal stamina, to take the world by storm in the big Wagnerian roles, culminating, I hope, one day - but not ...

Beethoven's Wig 4: Dance Along Symphonies

Beethoven's Wig

Rounder / Pgd, 2008

Beethoven's Wig 4
We have all four. As grandparents, we enjoy them as much as our grandchildern do.

25 Thunderous Classics

Richard [1] Strauss, Gustav Holst, ...

Vox (Classical), 2000

This thing kills!
OK, this is not a great musical experience, but a hodgepodge of the loud, vigorous and stirring parts. For what it is, and purports to be, it deserves 5 stars. If nothing else, it has the best cannon fusillade of any 1812 overture I have heard. It also includes ...

Essential Mozart: 32 Of His Greatest Masterpieces

Fritz Dolezal, Peter Schmidl, ...

Decca, 2001

Good times
I just cant say enough about this collection. It used to be that you had to spend a fortune to get Mozart's best hits; a few on each album. Now, you can buy them all at once and dirt cheap! very nice
