A Wonderful Introduction

J. Bandur | Lynnwood, WA USA | 05/12/2004

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm fairly new into appreciating classical music, and this CD is a wonderful introduction for me. This CD by EMI Classics is a sampler of their mid-price series called "Great Artists of the Century." It celebrates their roster of artists from the 20th century and the first decade of the 21st century."
