CD Reviews

A nice collection of Mozart

Ranjan Madhok | 01/15/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I purchased this Mozart set on a hunch and it turned out to be such a good buy. This set of 5 CDs at it's price is a steal! Just 1 CD of Ashkenazy playing Piano Concerto Nos 20 (K467-Elvira Madigan) and 21 (K466) can account for its price and then you have 4 more CDs containing Sir Georg Solti conducting Mozart's famous and my favourite Symphonies 40 (K550) and 41 (Jupiter K551) and a sprinkling of other instrumental works of Violin, Clarinet, Flute, Harp, Horn etc. This is a good set for those beganing their foray into Western Classical Music as well as passionate collectors like me as I was able to get such a diverse collection of Mozart's music. Most recordings in this set are DDD and even though a few are ADD I found all to be quite nice and pleasing to the ear. I recomend this set to all music lovers - Buy and Enjoy!!"
