Mozart Edition: Complete Works (170 CD Box Set)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Bruce Abel, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2005

A wonderful set !
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 ...
  
  











  



  
The Story of Bach
Johann Sebastian Bach, Jean-Joseph Cassanea de Mondonville, ...

Vox (Classical), 1995

Excellent!
We are using this series of CDs in our homeschool music program - they are fantastic! We especially love this one about Bach - what an awesome man! The story of his life is told in a way that is very interesting and holds the children's attention while also using ...

Vox (Classical), 2000

25 Handel Favorites
Absolutely what I expect of Handel! Good stuff, if this is your "bag".
  
  











  



  
Bach Edition: Complete Works (155 CD Box Set)
Johann Sebastian Bach, Andrew Manze, ...

Brilliant Classics, 2006

so far, definitely so good
I have listened to, thus far, 122 discs and have enjoyed all but three of the performances, especially the Mass in B Minor, Magnificat, Christmas Oratorio, Goldberg Variations, The Art of Fugue, and to my surprise in spite of unfavourable reviews elsewhere, the Sacred ...
  
  











  



  
Mendelssohn: Piano Concertos
Felix Mendelssohn, Neville Marriner, ...

Sony, 1990

A Legendary Recording
There are so many things that could be said about this recording. It deserves a spot on any top 50 classical recordings list. The piece and the performance are both 5 stars. Mendelssohn is an undeservingly neglected composer. He is ususally thought of as an ...
  
  











  



  
Switched-On Bach
Johann Sebastian Bach, Wendy Carlos

East Side Digital, 2001

Scary Music
I can honestly say that I've never heard another album or song in my life that transports the listener to such an alien realm. The music is so byzantine, layered, precise, fast....its a trip. I jokingly told my son that this is the music that robots listen to. Its ...
  
  











  



  
Gabrieli · Monteverdi · Vivaldi - Venetian Church Music / Taverner Consort, Choir & Players · Andrew Parrott
Giovanni Gabrieli, Claudio Monteverdi, ...

EMI Classics, 2001

exceptional tone quality
When I purchased this recording, I had not yet had the pleasure of owning an Andrew Parrott/Taverner Consort recording. I was so impressed! Andrew really excercises an understanding of this genre, an understanding that I haven't often seen. In particular I was quite ...
  
  











  



  
Bach for Babies
Marc Johnson [double bass], Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

Philips, 1999

Classical, Jazz and Opera Bach all in one
This is a versatile collection in terms of composition, performance and layout. Comparing to most of CD with classical selections for baby, this edition is more nutritious and rich on musical experience. Genre wise, the piano solo, concerti, chamber and opera are all ...
  
  











  



  
Children's Favorites
Johann Sebastian Bach, Paul [composer] Dukas, ...

Vox (Classical), 2000

A Wonderful Introduction to the Classics
With total playing time clocking in at 78:04 minutes of music, you'll be paying about 6-cents/minute, which is a better bargain than long distance phone calls, and often more rewarding! This disc is far superior than most other "Classics for Kids"-type recordings ...
  
  











  



  
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 ...
  
  











  



  
Bach for Relaxation
Elizabeth Anderson, Moray Welsh, ...

RCA, 1998

Bach to knit up your raveled sleeve of care
What better way to begin 'Bach for Relaxation' than with "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring." This CD is not dumbed-down Johann Sebastian Bach just because it advertises itself as relaxation music (which was my initial fear before purchase). Good orchestras and soloists ...
  
  











  



  
Bach: French Suites / Angela Hewitt
Johann Sebastian Bach, Angela Hewitt

Hyperion UK, 1995

Elegant Artistry
Recorded early in Angela Hewitt's Bach cycle, the popular French Suites (along with the "Little Preludes" and other two more dynamic virtuoso pieces) take a step back from the more serious and complex fugal compositions of Bach and settle into the restrained elegance ...
  
  











  



  
Mozart: Complete String Trios & Duos
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Academy of St. Martin-in-the-Fields Chamber Ensemble, ...

Philips, 1996

A style made for Mozart
Here is yet another great Mozart Philips recording featuring the elegant playing of Arthur Grumiaux. The String Quintets and Violin Concertos are other ones. When you hear Grumiaux play Mozart like this, you think, "Now, how can one top that?" Such a dignified, ...
  
  











  



  
Christopher Parkening plays Bach
Johann Sebastian Bach, Francois Couperin, ...

EMI Classics, 1990

Pinnacle
I can't over-exaggerate the impact this album had on me when my Dad played it for me when I was about 6. It encouraged me to become a guitarist, and hearing it was my first truly profound musical experience that I can remember. I love all kinds of music, but ...
  
  











  



  
Most Relaxing Classical Piano Music in the Universe
Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ...

Denon Records, 2004

Solid collection of piano favorites
If you can gag your way past the album title, this is a most pleasant collection of beloved classical piano pieces that actually is relaxing, I suppose.
