 | Yo-Yo Ma & Bobby McFerrin: Hush
The idea here was to put two masters together--one classical cellist, one improvisational singer/sound-effects performer--and voilą! instant amazing, unique, hip--and, hopefully, hit--record. The intriguing setup was to see what would happen when each led the other through the unfamiliar territory of his own specialty. The success of this recording lies not so much in the music or even in the overall performances, but in the fascinating and fun opportunity to sit in on the musicians' good-natured, respectful give-and-take, to ...

 | Classical Music for Children
A wonderful selection of classical music! I bought this one, then started searching for the other CD's in the series. My 6-year-old daughter LOVES it & I often play it when she's not home. (I even took it to work for a few weeks & my officemates all commented on the collection of songs -- there's something on here for everyone to enjoy!) This is the kind of classical music that makes you ... Regular Price : $2.98

 | The Royal Family of the Spanish Guitar
What can I say? The Romeros are breathtaking! I am a beginning classical guitar student and hearing this family play is so inspiring. I found out from Christopher Parkening's Guitar Method book (a book I recommend to beginning classical guitar students) they were one of his very first guitar teachers.
I especially enjoy hearing the Romeros' full versions of some of the songs I'm learning to play. For example, I'm currently learning a very simplified arrangement of Isaac ... Regular Price : $11.98

 | Ravel: The Complete Solo Piano Music
Taking time off from her definitive series of J.S. Bach recordings, Angela Hewitt here brings us the complete solo piano music of Ravel. Anyone who wondered whether this seemingly dyed-in-the wool Bachian might stumble should rest assured: this is a stunning double-disc. As Hewitt makes clear in her characteristically illuminating liner notes, Stravinsky's jibe that Ravel was 'only a Swiss clock-maker' was hopelessly off the mark. 'One doesn't need to open one's chest to show that one ... Regular Price : $40.98

 | The Segovia Collection
The vastly improved sonics which the Deutsche Grammophon production team achieves with its 24/96 remastering of the guitarist's 1952-1969 mono and stereo performances for Decca allow listeners to finally experience the rich tonal palette and intimate nature of Segovia's performance art in a manner commensurate with the fidelity of the original LP releases (minus the edgy digital glare and graininess of the MCA reissues). What emerges is a portrait of the artist as a lightning rod for ... Regular Price : $47.98

 | Chopin: Favorite Piano Works
This title comes with two (2) CD's, and its selection is wonderful. It contains many well-known Chopin pieces, it is perfect for those who just started to listen to Chopin as well as his long-time fans. The performance by Ashkenazy is, needless to mention, always so precise, delicate yet so stable ... beautiful! I strongly recommend it!

 | Masters Of Classical Music, Vols. 1-10
At 20 dollars, this is simply an amazing collection. With ten disks, that's roughly 2 dollars per disk. And each disk contains about an hour of music. That's about 10 hours! And surprisingly, the sound is actually good quality (not what one comes to expect). The conducting and the performers are also good. While you don't get any big names (aside from the composers themselves), you do get some very fresh and authentically performed ... Regular Price : $26.98

 | Classical Music For People Who Hate Classical Music
I am a musician and I generally dislike classical compilation CD's, but my friend brought this in to work one day and I was hooked. It covers many different styles of classical music with a wonderful combination of pieces. The only negative for me was that some of the longer pieces had to be cut down to fit them on, but that was minor when compared with all of the good things in this set. ... Regular Price : $18.98

 | Copland Super Hits
There is something special about this recording of the Lincoln Portrait. The special ingredient is Henry Fonda's baritone Nebraska accent that sends chills down my spine when I hear his narration, even to this day.

 | Satie: Piano Works
I haven't listened to all recordings Satie, as the object of such a thing is limited, eventually, but I will say this is the best recording you can buy for Satie piano works.
The thing is, you can feel like an abstract withering ghost, quite a little poetic soul if you will, and then like a Magritte painting, a faceless, robotic, yet ironic man in a business suit.
Oh, you know, everyone's misuses 'impressionist' versus ... Regular Price : $7.98
