The Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos
Angel Records, 1994
PEACE FROM WITHIN
I can't understand most of the latin words in these chants but the spirituality, harmony and the "music" in the monks' voices are refreshing to the soul. I know that several monks sing but you basically hear one voice. I would suggest that a pocket size book with the ...
Baby Einstein - Baby Mozart - Music Festival
WALT DISNEY VIDEO, 2004
Life Saver
This product was recommended to me by my cousin. It has been well worth the $15-and then some. My son loves it-and has loved it since he was 3 months old. He's now 11 months and will still sit & watch it. I actually enjoy watching it myself-it's very intriguing. ...
Baby Einstein: Baby Mozart
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

Baby Einstein Music Box Orchestra
Buena Vista, 2002
another great classical cd for babies
I am so glad to add Baby Mozart to my Baby Einstein collection. I listen to this CD and my Baby Bach daily. A must have for your little one.
Dead Symphony No. 6
Lee Johnson/Russian National Orchestra
OMI Records, 2007
Fantastic Re-Imagining
Lee Johnson has taken the work of the Dead and re-imagined it as orchestral music. It is remarkably provocative and demands close listening. My wife is a classical musician, and upon hearing Johnson's work, she is now quite interested in listening more closely to the ...
Baby Einstein - Numbers Nursery
Baby Einstein
Walt Disney Video, 2003
Wonderful and age appropriate
My little one absolutely loves this DVD and even asks for it by "growling" like the tiger on the front! It may surprise you that they only teach numbers up to 5, but as a former preschool teacher I believe it is very age appropriate. The DVD is not teaching them to ...
A State of Wonder: The Complete Goldberg Variations (1955 & 1981)
Johann Sebastian Bach
,
Glenn Gould
, ...
Sony, 2002
Really, so NO ONE in 1981 realized the analog tapes sounder better?
Most of us may remember the "perfect music forever" marketing that introduced CDs 25 years ago... those of us with working ears pretty quickly dismissed it for the hype it was... I've got both the '55 and '81 versions and now this release. I have NO regrets re the ...
Camelot (Original Broadway Cast)
Frederick Loewe
,
Moss Hart
, ...
Sony, 1998
You can't go wrong
Richard Burton, Julie Andrews and Robert Goulet. How could you go wrong? They really don't make them like this anymore. Jay Lerner's fantastic songs and a wonderful treatment of T.H. White's "The Once and Future King", one of the greatest novels of the twentieth ...

Vox (Classical), 1996
Wonderful collection and price!
I found this to be a nice collection of favorites, especially to keep in the car and listen to. It is a variety of well known compilations. Although not encompassing, it is perfect as a review for driving, relaxing, and enjoyment. Plus, the price is right!
Beethoven's Wig: Sing Along Symphonies
Beethoven's Wig
Rounder / Umgd, 2002
Teaching Kids to Love Classical Music
This is a great product. The kids love it. Some reviews have mentioned that the lead vocalist is not very melodic. However, I see this as a plus. He has a zany way of cracking his voice which is a hilarious complement to the other opera-class voices on the CD. My kids ...
UltraSound - Music for the Unborn Child
Johannes Brahms
,
Frederic Chopin
, ...
RCA, 1999
Soothing sounds for unborn baby
This product is wonderful and i would recommend it to anybody who is expecting a baby. It can be used also later on when the baby is born of course so it is a never-ending beautiful piece of music.
Bach: Violin Concertos
Johann Sebastian Bach
,
Daniel Barenboim
, ...
EMI Classics, 2002
Very pleasing
I can understand the criticism and praise from the reviewers on this interpretation. Once again, it's a matter of taste and ultimately liking the balance between technical skill and expression. Sometimes the tempi can alter the course of appreciation as well, and I ...
Chant II
Gregorian Chant

Ismael Fernandez de la Cuesta

Angel Records, 1995
Same Question As Before
The music is flawless. Haunting, spiritual, engrossing, and above all gorgeous. This disc is nothing short of amazing. Yet I gotta ask. Why is it that a recording of BENEDICTINE monks has a cover photo of men in FRANCISCAN robes?
Eden (US Release - 16 tracks)
Sarah Brightman
Angel Records, 1999
Fantastic
This is my second copy of this cd. The first was discovered by my then 16 year old daughter and after being passed repeatedly back and forth and between both cars.....well, you know how it was--it just wouldn't play anymore--she is now 20. Now that I have the new ...
A Chorus Line (1975 Original Broadway Cast)
Marvin Hamlisch
,
Sharon Brown
, ...
Sony, 1998
Excellent!
"Chorus Line" has to be one of the greatest of Broadway Musicals. It is particularly apropos to people who either are in show business or are well-familiar with the ups and downs of that craft. This recording just magnifies this!
Andre Rieu: Radio City Hall Live in New York (2007)
Andre Rieu
Denon Records, 2007
Excellent
I have watched Andre Rieu live from NY Radio City so many times and have totally enjoyed it each and every time. I purchased the DVD for some family and friends and they have also enjoyed it, they couldn't thank me enough for sending it to them. Andre Rieu did a ...
