Wonderful Music

Nhaka | 01/24/2007

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I am a lover of classical music but not in any way a musician. As a lay person the collection of pieces on this CD appeal to me in their representation of a period in classical music that I find particularly pleasing. I had never heard of Pokorny and Hoffsteter so was particularly pleased to find two composers to add to my list. It is a quiet collection of beautiful music well played and most enjoyable."
