Wonderful stimulating music for baby
I am sorry for the previous review who said that intelligence is hereditary. If that is true, all mankind would have been doomed from the start. Intelligence is not hereditary, but rather a result of stimulation during infancy and birth. Sure, it isn't a guarantee ...

The definition of "art" is Stravinsk;y's 20th Century legacy
This is a "staple" for anyone owning a stereo and a CD player. It's a learning experience .... a bit of an acquired taste, a "foreign language" that one has to learn, when we only know our own language. It's complex. It's sometimes intellectual. It's moody. It's ...

The best Così fan tutte on disc
In is hard to justify spending $120 for one opera, but if you do buy this Mozart box set you will be rewarded by a delightful Così fan tutte. This live recording succeeds primarily because of the deft baton of Sigiswald Kuijken. He sets what invariably seems to be the ...

Pretty good
I am not much into classical music.. Read about Mozart and wanted to make sure I listen to one of the all time classics. Though I may not be qualified enough to review a classic, On a whole it was a pleasant experience for me and a good add on to my car, especially ...

A TREASURE OF SINGING ----- IN A LAVISH PRESENTATION
Marilyn Horne is plainly one of the greatest classical singers ever heard. She stands beside Caruso, Bjoerling, Flagstad, Callas, Sutherland, Caballe, Domingo, Pavarotti and every other "great". Horne's mezzo-soprano voice was astounding, with booming chest tones, a ...

Ecstatic Music, Ecstatically Performed.
I had first heard this performance of St. Hildegard of Bingen's "Canticles of Ecstasy" on sound cassette and loved it. The music is sublime. The female voices are heavenly, without a hint of sentimentality. When you listen to "Canticles of Ecstasy" you will know ...
Voice of the Violin
Joshua Bell
Sony, 2006
Enjoying the violin
After I bought the Ladies in Lavender I had to buy Johuas Bell music. I heard him play the Brahms violinconcert april 2003 and became a fan. One period in my life I almost hated violin music maybe because I was playing the piano with my brother violin. Later I ...

Glorious Practicality
There's hardly a music lover out there who doesn't already have multiple recordings of the Beethoven symphonies, quartets, concertos, etc., performances from which we choose according to mood, frame of mind-- to any number of reasons. So why not add another set of ...

Good for first-timer
This is the first time I have ever bought a classical music CD and I was very pleased with this one. It has a good variety of selections. I would buy it again.
Catholic Latin Classics

Gia Publications, 2000
The best Latin music I've heard
The music in this CD is done beautifully! If features "Panis Angelicus", which if you like Charlotte Church singing it, you will like this- with a man's voice! There is no goofy revisions and modernization done to the music that I can tell. (I only say that in case ...

Amazing talent
Without doubt, the birthday ode to Queen Anne (Eternal Source of Light Divine) is one of the loveliest pieces ever. Couple that with two of the most accomplished talents in the world, you have a near spiritual moment. Even those with even a passing interest in the ...
The Mystery Of Santo Domingo De Silos Gregorian Chant From Spain

Chorus of Monks from the Abbey
Deutsche Grammophon, 1994
The best Chant CD on the market.
By happy coincidence, this CD was my introduction to Gregorian Chant and while I have since listened to many more, this disc is clearly the best. Right from the opening Dominus Regnavit and Laudate Dominum, the listener is caught up in what seems to be a swelling wave ...
Hymns
Beth Nielsen Chapman
Emergent, 2004
Beautiful harmonies
This has to be my favorite CD of Beth Neilsen Chapman's collection. It is very unlike her other CDs, being mostly composed of Catholic hymns. I've never cared for Catholic hymns, for the most part, or Gregorian chants either, but Beth does such a nice job with these ...

MAGNIFICENT... BUT MAY I HAVE SOME MORE?
This is a great set, and a nice anniversary issue to coincide with the 75th birthday of the great Spanish soprano, a truly grand diva and unique voice, maybe the last example of a breed of singers directly connected with the Grand Tradition and a vocal art -of purity ...
