I'm a fan of slow songs in latter half
I prefer the slow songs, they seems to be a better fit for my baby. I also bought The Mozart Effect: Music For Babies: Nighty Night which I like a lot. The performances are well played by talented musicians. (I have a degree from Peabody so that's a true compliment)

I play this every night to put my son to sleep. I hear music is supposed to be good brain development for math and being a math teacher I figured I try it. Playing this music seems to relax my son and puts him to sleep. It even puts my husband to sleep...

This thing kills!
OK, this is not a great musical experience, but a hodgepodge of the loud, vigorous and stirring parts. For what it is, and purports to be, it deserves 5 stars. If nothing else, it has the best cannon fusillade of any 1812 overture I have heard. It also includes some of the best versions ever of several compositions, such as Kunzel's rendition of the Fucik favorite, Entry of the Gladiators. ...

Good times
I just cant say enough about this collection. It used to be that you had to spend a fortune to get Mozart's best hits; a few on each album. Now, you can buy them all at once and dirt cheap! very nice

Bernstein Favorites review - great!
My children and I really enjoy this CD. It has lots of useful information about instruments of the orchestra. The children love the Peter and the Wolf story the most, but the individual instruments section is very interesting for them (and adults) as well!

fabulous "ricky-ticky" jazz versions of Gershwin standards
Lincoln Mayorga's somewhat fleet and understated approach to the solo part in "Rhapsody In Blue" might not be to everyone's liking. He plays it as though he were entertaining a smallish audience in a smaller than usual venue. I like it, but I can seen how others might prefer a heavier hand. What is totally irresistible then, is the painstaking job taken in recreating the original Ferde Grofe ...

The Best recording of Peter and the Wolf!
This is a fantastic disc! Peter and the Wolf sounds whimsical, fun, and great as narrated by David Bowie. Bowie proves to be the best narrator yet for Peter and the Wolf! Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra sounds excellent as performed by Eugene Ormandy and the Philadelphia Orchestra! To wrap up the disc we have a stellar performance of Saint Saens Carnival of the Animals by Arthur ...

Perfect
We love this CD for our 12 week old. She has trouble sleeping well and this CD is perfect for soothing her as part of her sleep routine. The music is gentle and the melodies are clear. The volume is consistent, which is really important - it never startles her. There are also very short gaps between songs so there is no distracting silence. Lovely!

The Versatile Yo-Yo Ma
Since returning from a trip to China, I have become very interested in the music and the entire culture and history of the Far East. To an American, it seems like such an exotic and mysterious world. Given the formidable languages and the vastness of it all, I can only say that I can only hope to acquire a superficial understanding. As always, the versatile Yo-Yo Ma is quite soulful and ...

Soul-stirring
Though I am not a believer, I am interested and moved by all sorts of music, including a lot of historical music. This recording was my first introduction to the amazing Hildegard von Bingen. The music she composed, to me, is best described as soul-stirring. While listening to it, I get the sensation that it has reached inside to my heart and grabbed hold. I suspect this has something to with ...

Soothing for all ages.
I used this CD while elementary students were taking a test. They loved it and so did I. The selections were chosen carefully to be soothing and uplifting. This CD is an excellent way to introduce anyone of any age to Mozart. It can be played in the background while you are working. I listen to it in my counseling office.

I purchased this CD because I like to listen to Water Music and even have it as my ringtone. The other feature I enjoyed listening that came with this CD the vocal songs...Hallelujah Chorus and For unto us a Child is Born. Those who like classical music should add this to their collection. The only drawback is when it came to track two and three.... Pastorale and Bourree I can't hardly hear it ...

A Fine Way To Relax
Currently I'm enjoying this cello music while in the car, as it lessens the stress of traffic. It contains a variety of cello pieces that have beauty and grace. As a cellist I appreciate the supurb execution of each piece. This CD is everything I hoped it would be.
