Grammy-winning violin virtuoso Joshua Bell, one of the greatest on the planet, steps into the baroque world and delivers an unusually personal, superb version of Antonio Vivaldi's "Four Seasons.

W. Norton, 2005 The Standard If you're a music student at almost any major school (I just finished my undergraduate at Indiana University, for example) you'll most likely need to take a course that uses these CD's as part of its history survey. For that purpose, this set is an excellent collection. These, with their companion Norton Anthology of Western Music, and in conjunction with Grout/Palisca's History of Western ...             The Most Soothing Lullabies In The Universe6 reviews Johann Sebastian Bach, Ludwig van Beethoven, ... Denon Records, 2004 sooth for both unborn and newborn babies. very soothing for the unborn baby (decreases in-utero kicking) and the newborn baby (increases between-feedings time at night). highly recommended for any newly minted parents out there.             25 Mozart Favorites19 reviews John Sant'Ambrogio, George Silfies, ...

Norton, 2005 Excellent Excellent product..one of the standard anthologies available for studying Music History.

Sony, 1990 Gershwin; Rhapsody in Blue/American in Paris This CD was everthing I expeced. It contained the entire (16.26 minute) version of Rhapsody in Blue and brings back some wonderful memories from my high school days and music appreciation classes.             Baby Einstein: Baby Mozart22 reviews Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Baby Einstein Music Box Orchestra Buena Vista, 2002 another great classical cd for babies I am so glad to add Baby Mozart to my Baby Einstein collection.

EMI Classics, 1995 Possibly the biggest steal in all of recorded music ! As one who grew up adoring the Jascha Heifetz/Fritz Reiner recordings of these two great concerti, and certain they had set a standard of musical excellence impossible of being equalled, much less bettered, imagine my surprise upon hearing this fabulous disc. HEIFETZ & REINER HAVE BEEN DETHRONED! Having beaten back great artists in recent years such as Vengerov and Shaham, it hardly seemed ...             Bach: Violin Concertos12 reviews Johann Sebastian Bach, Daniel Barenboim, ... EMI Classics, 2002 Very pleasing I can understand the criticism and praise from the reviewers on this interpretation. Once again, it's a matter of taste and ultimately liking the balance between technical skill and expression. Sometimes the tempi can alter the course of appreciation as well, and I think that's more the case here. To my ear, this is a very solid and beautiful rendition. Perlman plays with a very distinct ...             Schoenberg Violin Concerto Op.36/Sibelius Violin Concerto Op.4719 reviews Sibelius, Schoenberg, ... DG, 2008 Revelatory The Schoenberg violin concerto is widely admired and widely studied, but it isn't much played, and it's never been much loved. This is partly because of the huge technical hurdles it presents fiddlers, but also because it isn't especially easy to bring off musically; in this regard it is unlike the piano concerto, say, which is far more accessible, and which offers up at least some of its ...             Bach: Brandenburg Concertos No. 1-4; Neville Marriner; Academy of St. Martin in the Fields5 reviews Johann Sebastian Bach, Sir Neville Marriner, ... EMI Classics, 2004 Easy to Enjoy I am not a musician nor can I identify Bach's Brandenburg Concerto number one from number five. However, I am an avid listener and do enjoy classical music. I know how good the Academy of St Martin in the Fields is and what a great conductor Sir Neville Marriner is. Most of all, I can identify a real bargain when I see one and this CD qualifies as a great bargain. Bach's concertos are ...             25 Bach Favorites12 reviews Hildegard Rutgers, Erich Wenk, ... Vox (Classical), 1996 Bach Surely you don't need me to review the guy. You know who he is, you've heard his music, and I hope you own some. So let me turn the podium over to a cat named Picasso, and you can read into that whatever you wish. She's in a chair, near the CD player. She has entered the room specifically for the music. Her eyes are squinted, almost but not quite shut, little face concentrating on just how ...             Essential Mozart: 32 Of His Greatest Masterpieces17 reviews Fritz Dolezal, Franklin Cohen, ... Decca, 2001 What a deal You get Mozart's best works in 2 CD. The sound is flawless to the common ear.

Angel Records, 1999 Good for relaxing pregnant women I stumbled onto this album whilst searching bit torrent websites for classical music. I don't normally listen to classical music but thought it might be relaxing for my pregnant wife.
