If you love classical music you'll love this cd. My favorite was The Sleeping Beauty Suite.

CD Reviews

This is not a good digital recording

"There is a 'record player' hum in the background when you try to listen to various tracks on these CDs. The compilation is wonderful. The Quality of the recording is very disappointing. The outside of the album cover reads DDD which I thought to mean clean and clear all digital recording. Don't be deceived by the cover."

Well...

"The item is fine, except for the fact that I THOUGHT I was supposed to be getting 4 CDs. I don't like how there's this chance of a fine print where you don't get the whole product. I bought it through a seller, and even though its not technically "Amazon", this is the 2nd time I've had problems with this site in the last 2 months. Needless to say I won't be buying anything for awhile.

If you want to know how it is, I listened to the 1st cd, (which is the only one I got) and its decent.

That's my rant."
