CD Reviews

Unacceptable

angrylemur | West Point, NY United States | 09/16/2003

(2 out of 5 stars)

"This disc is unacceptable unless you like tracks that are incomplete. It is one thing to have excerpts and another to end the track only 10 measures from the actual ending of the piece! Buy a disc with reasonably complete pieces instead. I am not even "filing" this with my other classical CDs. (It will be filed somewhere else.)"
