Delightful Music You will Adore

Hohenzolern@aol.com | LA | 08/09/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"The music selections are excellent. They are romantic and charming. A perfect background music for a party.. particularily and evening event. The oboe and other wind music make great chamber works. The composers vary from Mozart to Rossini. Even opera arias are in here. I personally enjoyed Stanceva the pianist in this rendition of the Mozart Romanza from his Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor. Stanceva has a truly elegant and charming style true to the Mozart taste. I have another Stanceva recording of the Mozart piano concerto 21 Andante which is the best version out there. The rest of the music is excellent. I highly recommend this CD. A gift worth purchasing."
