The Geese Are Getting Fat Again
Someone who likes my music reviews has requested a Christmas album. Well, here it is. Imagine a silent darkness with reflections of colored lights twinkling on the snow banks. Suddenly a group of carolers can be heard making their merry way toward your own front porch, ...

Baroque by Bach
Perhaps it is the romantic in me that enervates a sense of anticipation when superlative musicians take up period instruments to play great master's works in the manner in which they were written. In this case I believe that also means enjoying the work with a ...

Yet Another Nutcracker-Oh Why Not?!
I agree with some of the assesments made by reviewer Ivy Lin, above, however, I disagree with others. This production of the beloved Christmas classic by the Royal Ballet does indeed incline more to the older Russian than the later Balanchine interpretation, which is ...

Incredible Voice - Fantastic Sonds
Sarah Brightman continues her incredible career with this CD. I can listen this over and over again. I had the pleasure to actually see her in concert perform the songs from this CD. Amazing experience.

Good for relaxing pregnant women
I stumbled onto this album whilst searching bit torrent websites for classical music. I don't normally listen to classical music but thought it might be relaxing for my pregnant wife. After hearing the quality of the performances, the arrangement, and the recording I ...

THE BEST VIENNA BOYS CHOIR CHRISTMAS MUSIC!!
This wonderful collection of Christmas music is especially good! Many pieces are very well known standards, and have been rewritten in ways that keep the music fresh, interesting and new! Every holiday season (and even throughout the year) this CD is played by our ...

Verdi - Otello / Domingo, Fleming, Morris, Croft, Levine, Moshinsky, Metropolitan Opera
Plácido Domingo

Renée Fleming
Deutsche Grammophon, 2004
A must own!
What a treat! Domingo was owning this...voice powerful, presence exactly right, and acting surprising excellent. Fleming was brilliant! Her voice was at the height of it's beauty. The last aria was so moving and perfect. While I didn't care for Morris's voice in this, ...
Songs of Angels - Christmas Hymns and Carols
Robert Shaw Chamber Singers
Telarc, 1994
Much Anticipated
I have been looking for this CD for years!! Our family had a Shaw Chorale LP which contained almost all the songs on this CD. We had a number of excellent holiday albums and played all of them often, but we wore the Shaw Chorale album out! Not only are the musical ...

Carnival of the Animals
The music is beautiful. I used it for a music lesson for Kindergarten on how to interpret animals using music. It is also very soothing in the background for working.
Essential Vivaldi: 20 Greatest Masterpieces
a. Vivaldi
Deutsche Grammophon, 2002
Awesome CD
I am ever in search for music for canine freestyle and my choreographer suggested that I explore Vivaldi. My dog works great to Mozart so this was not a great departure musically. So I bought this album...It exceeded my expectations as the musicians play with emotion, ...

Great Value, Fine Performances
For lovers of Ralph Vaughan Williams' music, the prospect of obtaining most of his works on 30 CDs for $50 or less should be irresistible. It's a great way to fill in the gaps in your collection, or to become acquainted with RVW's less familiar works. Among the ...

Telarc, 2000
This is an amazing, amazing product
The only part of the CD I would quibble with is the selection from Rachmaninov's Vespers, but I'm really lucky and have heard that performed live several times and heard multiple recordings, and decided on one that I liked best early on. If you aren't blown away by ...

Virgin Classics, 2008
DISGUSTING
This must rank among the WORST "Lamento della Ninfa" ever recorded. Dessay sounds vulgar. ...That's the word: vulgar. If you are interested in any reference recording of this work, choose rather Veldhoven ("Love & Lament") or Tragicomedia. The other items are not so ...
