UltraSound - Music for the Unborn Child

Claude Debussy, Johann Sebastian Bach, ...

RCA, 1999

Great Music for you and baby!
I think the music on here is very good. I love listening to it and my baby enjoys it as well. When I play it, she settles down and seems very attentive or sleep; I really can't tell the difference at this point. Hopefully this CD will have the same affect when she is born.

Best Opera Album In The World ... Ever!

Angel Records, 1999

Great for the amateur Opera listener
As a long time armchair Opera listener I'm shocked that I hadn't come across this album until recently. I'm not really an Opera connoisseur so my review is based on just the fact that I love Opera, but mostly by listening to arias or occasionally going to the Opera. This CD is quite comprehensive and offers a broad spectrum of aria's and some chorus's from several composers as well as the more ...

Decca, 2004

really like it
This is the first classical cd I have ever bought. The two-disc album was a great price. I really love the performance of Lynn Harrell. I like the collection of Adagios because they are perfect to fall asleep to or study to.

Lullabies for the young and young at heart
Purchased the CD from Amazon.com when my daughter asked me to find some soothing music to help her first child relax and fall to sleep. They have and are still enjoying the CD very often.

Received very quickly and in good condition. CD is clean, no scratches, and plays perfectly. The music is integral to the film's storyline, and achieves its purpose quite well. Thank you!

Music from a Farther Room

Lucia Micarelli, Eric Holden, ...

Reprise Records, 2004

Wow! Wow! Wow!
My parents loved classical music & I've listened to violins all my life, growing ever more bored until I said if I never heard another violin it would be too soon. No more. Lucia Micarelli has brought forth from that instrument new sounds that I never heard before. Her tone is so pure that I almost cannot recognize the instrument. Her fadeouts are so subtle that I cannot distinguish where ...

Carmen-Fantasie

Pablo de Sarasate, Jules Massenet, ...

Deutsche Grammophon, 1993

Best I've heard so far
Many musicians play with with brains, only few do with hearts - And even fewer pour their hearts out with consistency are legends. Mutter had seemingly rewritten the arrangement and absorbed it so solidly which led to a performance that blooms with such great passion and distinct personality aided by her transcendental techniques. I had felt an instant connection with her the very first time I ...

Jules Massenet, Max Bruch, ...

Decca, 2001

Exquisite collection & performances, unbelievable value!!!
"Over 2 l/2 hours of the world's most beautiful music." These words on the cover are very close to true. What an incredible value this collection is!! So many of these compilations of this sort are cheaply produced, and those "greatest hits" collections are one trite piece after another -- after a while one runs screaming to the stereo to shut it off. However, this collection is top-notch, ...

Naxos, 2000

Incredible Opportunity to Hear and Lean About Opera
We have loved Opera for years; but, had never been to one. Nor did we know anything really about the composer's or the story of the Operas. This has quickly become our favorite; we bought a second copy for our car and listen to it on trips. As a result of reading the book that comes with it; and, listening to the CD's, we have since bought several full length Opera's for our listening ...

Andrea Bocelli - The Opera Album ~ Aria

Andrea Bocelli

Philips, 1998

Andrea Bocelli - Sogno
I am 45 years old. The reason why this is something I am mentioning, is to let all of you reading my review know what age group I am in. It might be important to the age you are in knowing what I have to say. I have four Andrea Bocelli CD's and they are all wonderful. I love each of them. My mom turned me on to him, and, since I love Josh Groban, I decided to listen to Andrea Bocelli and see ...

Renée Fleming

Giacomo Puccini, Jules Massenet, ...

Decca, 2000

The New La Divina
Renee Fleming is the most sheerly beautiful voice in opera since Montserrat Caballe. Her Casta Diva is stunning, and the high note at the end of Merci jeune amies is pure virtuoso. I love her Puccini, Massenet and Verdi as well. Fleming said that she doesn't class herself amongst "the greats", but I do!

Andre Rieu, Masterpieces
Andre Rieu and his JSO are a class act. The music is wonderful, can make you smile and can keep you spellbound all at the same time. He loves his audiances and they love him and his orchestra. YOu can't go wrong with any of his musical CD's.

The Most Romantic Classical Music in the Universe

Georges Bizet, Claude Debussy, ...

Denon Records, 2004

Great music to unwind to!
I bought this CD to play while I am putting my infant son to bed. Every night I give him his bottle, read him a story and like to have soothing music playing in the background. This was a great choice! It makes for a great alternative to lullaby CD's. I highly recommend it if you are looking for a nice relaxing blend of classical music.

Pavarotti: Greatest Hits

Giacomo Puccini, Giuseppe Verdi, ...

Decca, 1997

Cornucopia of Pavarotti's works
This is a "Super hits" CD, with over forty different cuts (quite a few of which have appeared elsewhere, of course). For those who are aficionados of Pavarotti, this is what might be called "hog heaven." Disc 1 features estimable works such as "Nessun dorma" (well done, with his voice showing to good effect), "Che gelida manina" (excellently done, with good characterization), ""Celeste Aida" ...

Renee Fleming: By Request

Decca, 2003

The Best of Renee Fleming
This is a compilation of Renee Fleming's best works. I got it primarily for Rusalka's song to the Moon (O Silver Moon) but all the other arias are just perfect. She sings her classic, "Summertime" from Porgy & Bess (another of my favorites) so perfectly and "You'll Never Walk Alone" (she even sang this one at Barak Obama's inauguration ceremony. If you want to hear some of the most famous arias ...
