Customer Reviews

Outstanding Colllection of Old and New to Relax With
Having so enjoyed volume one of this series, I purchased this hoping to be likewise impressed. And I am.

This strays slightly from the first in not only having many of the classical giants works of the past, but also including the contemporary works of Rutter, J. Williams, and Horner.

The first CD introduced me to many composers which I was not familiar at all, and allowed me to followup and listen to more of their works. I now realize my progression into classical music has been maturing and am already familiar with many here included, however there are still many introductions which this CD provides: e.g. the beautiful piece by Trad, Duraflel, and Petit.

This strong combo of old and new, vocal and instrumental is powerful, soothing music.

A must buy for the non-snobbish classical music fan.
I bought Vol. 1 of this series and was quite satisfied, but I have to say I'm more than satisfied with this one. If you can just mellow out and enjoy some great pieces, you'll love this CD. #15 on Disc 2 is almost worth the price alone!

Great music listein to while you read in bed
I have listened to this CD for the last several years before going to sleep at night. I love classical music, and this is great music to help make my soul feel at peace and unwind after a taxing day.
