CD Reviews

3 stars for classical buffs, 5 for beginners!

12/07/2002

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I bought this collection several years when I was just starting out my classical collection and have since replaced a good portion of the pieces with more complete works. Connoisseurs probably won't find much here: the performances are mostly quite good, but not inspiring. For beginners, though, interested in getting started in the wonderful world of classical music, this is a great value: an amazing range of music for just a terrific price. Recommended."
