Essential Mozart: 32 Of His Greatest Masterpieces
I don't think Mozart purists would want a collection that consists in large part of excerpts or single movements from various works, but I bought this for my kids and it really is an entertaining, first-rate, diverse introduction to the endless repertoire of Mozart. Perfect for someone who is only a casual fan of classical music, or kids who need memorable tunes to sustain their interest in classical music, or I suppose for someone who ... Regular Price : $17.98

Mozart - Requiem / McLaughlin, M. Ewing, Hauptmann, Bayerischen Rundfunks, Bernstein
As with his performance of the Mass in C Minor with these same forces, Leonard Bernstein provides another outstanding performance, certainly one of the very finest available of this oft-recorded music. Without indulging in the sort of Romantic mannerisms that sometimes afflict his Mozart, Bernstein urges his Bavarian forces on to heights of passion and intensity that never upset the music's natural proportions. A magnificent disc.
This recording is one of the most exciting and ... Regular Price : $16.98

The Very Best of The Irish Tenors
This was great. There are some songs on here that are not available on the other CDs, so it was really nice to have those and this includes a song book as well.

Even though I have the other 3 albums, this one was a ... Regular Price : $19.98

The Royal Family of the Spanish Guitar
I'm not really qualified to judge this type of music. How would ***I*** know what great classical spanish guitar sounds like.
But what I can say is this: I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Bel Canto
Surely Renée Fleming's soprano must be one of the most beautiful voices before the public today. Though renowned for her interpretations of Mozart, Strauss, and Verdi, as well as for her commitment to contemporary music, she says that the 'bel canto' repertoire has always been central to her career. On this recording, which features scenes and arias from operas by Bellini, Donizetti, and Rossini, she proves that she has achieved total, effortless technical mastery of the uniquely ...
