I bought the complete set for my birthday. What a wonderful surprise ! Let's say I did not know much about Mozart's music except some few "classics" (the symphonies, the requiem, some piano concertos and sonatas, some serenades and the operas). I love every piece I ...             Mozart:The Complete Piano Sonatas and Variations Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Daniel Barenboim EMI Classics, 2000 Lovely As a pianist myself, I love Barenboim's playing. He does not play Mozart too Beethoven like. His performances are usually VERY good, and this is one example. Also includes the complete variations, which are very nice. The sound quality is excellent. Very highly ...             The World's Favorite Piano Music Ludwig van Beethoven, Johannes Brahms, ... RCA, 1992 My favorite CD! Van Cliburn is a master pianist, and this CD is pure listening enjoyment. I generally am not into clasical music, but this is fun. His working fingers convince me that they are not working. They are dancing, and they are having great fun. WONDERFUL!!             Beethoven Edition: Complete Works (85CD Box Set) Ludwig van Beethoven, Florian Prey, ... Brilliant Classics, 2007 Very high quality set - a great buy! I have not found one disc that is of poor quality. Sometimes with box sets that are compilations from various artists, the volume level and purity of the sound can be inconsistent. I have not found that problem to be present with this set. Obviously,one disc may be ...             Mozart: Piano Sonatas Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Christoph Eschenbach Deutsche Grammophon, 1999 Mozart, pure & simple This is my favorite set of Mozart piano sonatas, next to the Mitsuko Uchida collection from Philips. Eschenbach's performance is unadorned by needless trivialities, revealing a deep reverence for Mozart' score. Instead of taking liberties with the music, Eschenbach ...             Chopin: Favorite Piano Works Frederic Chopin, Vladimir Ashkenazy Decca, 1996 Why are you waiting? Ashkenazy is one of the titans of Chopin. Davidovich and Arrau are the other two. They're all you need. Get Davidovich for the concertos, (inlcuding the Krakowiak--Op 14), Arrau for the nocturnes and a few micscellaneous pieces. Ashkenazy handles everything else. ...             Chopin: The Complete Nocturnes And Impromptus Frederic Chopin, Claudio Arrau Philips, 1997 Claudio Arrau, Enchanting The eloquence of this enchanting artist is an absolute joy.

Brilliant Classics, 2008 Good budget set. Having spent additional time with this set, I'm updating my review. I'd say I've listened to about half of it.

The Double Concerto isn't bad... but the rest of them are ...             Elgar: The Collector's Edition (30 CDs) Derek Hammond-Stroud, Peter Glossop, ... Emi Classics, 2007 Great Bargain of Elgar Masterworks and Forgotten Gems! Like Sony's Stravinsky set, this Elgar set from EMI seems to want to challenge the Brilliant Classics label by providing lots of music for little money. This costs more than the Stravinsky, but you get 30 cds here as opposed to the 22 in the Stravinsky set. On the ...             The Story Of Handel George Frederick Handel, Dieter Kober, ...

EMI Classics, 1998 Best Swingles Ever If you know the Swingle Singers, you may expect jazzed-up Bach with a rhythm section. Now, don't get me wrong, i like that stuff, too, but that is just clean fun, while this is just Bach. No percussion, no jazzy rythym, just straight unaccompanied Bach. AND IT IS ...             Story Of Chopin In Words And Music Frederic Chopin, Ingrid Haebler Vox (Classical), 1995 BEAUTIFUL MUSIC/WAY TO LEARN ABOUT CHOPIN & HISTORY The music is so wonderful, perhaps a better description is that the music is so beautiful that it almost seems surreal - Wow!
