Customer Reviews

3 stars for classical buffs, 5 for beginners!
I bought this collection several years when I was just starting out my classical collection and have since replaced a good portion of the pieces with more complete works.

Connoisseurs probably won't find much here: the performances are mostly quite good, but not inspiring.

For beginners, though, interested in getting started in the wonderful world of classical music, this is a great value: an amazing range of music for just a terrific price. Recommended.
