    5 out of 5 stars an excellent introductory set, but don't buy at this price!   August 9, 2008

    i can't believe this set is selling for $80 here. i bought this set years ago at circuit city for $35. last time i visited, there was still one on the shelf. *shrug* i would definitely try and find it cheaper, but even at this price you're not getting ripped off completely. all of the recordings are of good quality and the selections are actually pretty damn good compared to other "best of" sets.


    4 out of 5 stars Good intro to classical music   May 3, 2008
    jday (Columbus, OH)
    The variety of composers on this compilation is great. From Bach to Stravinsky and quite a few in between. I am not a huge fan of classical music nor is my knowledge of it wide, but I enjoy popping one of the CDs and expanding my musical repitoire. My brother who is a classical musician agreed that this is a great introduction to those who want a wide sampling of classical music.


    5 out of 5 stars Yes!!!!!!!!   April 5, 2008

    I have been trying to unravel all of the differnt types of classical music for years now.... Information is hard to come by and I thought I would give this set a try. I like that on the inside of each CD there is a brief life story of each artist. This is a wonderful collection of classical music.


    5 out of 5 stars A great collection for the beginner   February 23, 2008
    G. Pinard (Quebec, Canada)
    I bougth this item to start my classical songs collection and I'm very satisfied with the product. It's a good overview of 20 of the greatest composers. The sound recording is excellent. The best buy I could have made to suit my purpose. I recommend it to anyone who want to start listening classical music.

    I bought this set wanting an introduction to a bunch of composers, many of whom I have heard very little if not nothing at all from, and expected to enjoy about half of the discs in this set. What I did not prepare for was having my rear end rocked off by one great piece after enough, leaving me in a state of undeniable bliss. I'm not going to sit here and pretend that I know a lot about the composers in this set, and I can tell you nothing about the circumstances under which each piece was written. I also admittedly do not "know better," though I know enough to realize that what you get on these CDs are snippets of larger, greater works. This is just a great collection of enjoyable music for people who want to get their feet wet. Every CD in this set is great, and the performances sound superb to my ears. Yet the snots will undoubtedly still complain about omissions, poor selections, or buyers "not getting it." You gotta start somewhere, and I've yet to see a better introduction. Plus it's cheaper than your average four-CD box set of derivative rock from past-their-prime fossils. What are you waiting for? Shouldn't you whip out your credit card and purchase this, NOW?
